Oil prices rise as US-EU deal lifts trade optimism

Oil (BZ=F, CL=F) Oil prices climbed in early European trading on Monday following a trade agreement between the United States and the European Union, easing fears of escalating transatlantic trade tensions ahead of a key tariff deadline. Brent (BZ=F) crude futures gained 0.9% to trade at $69.04 per barrel, at the time of writing, while West Texas Intermediate (CL=F) futures climbed by 0.8% to $65.70 a barrel. The modest gains came after Washington and Brussels struck a last-minute trade pact on Sunday, ahead of US president Donald Trump's 1 August deadline for a new round of tariffs on EU imports. Under the agreement, most European goods will now face a 15% import tariff, half the rate initially proposed by the US administration.

"With the risk of a prolonged trade war and the importance of the August tariff deadlines being steadily defused, markets have responded positively," IG markets analyst Tony Sycamore said in a note. The deal also raised hopes of further de-escalation in global trade tensions, including a potential extension of the current tariff pause between Washington and Beijing. However, gains in crude prices were tempered by investor caution ahead of a meeting of the Opec+ alliance on Monday. The group is expected to review the pace at which it is easing supply curbs implemented during the pandemic-induced downturn. Gold (GC=F) Gold prices were muted on Monday morning, as the trade agreement between the US and the EU boosted investor confidence and dampened demand for the traditional safe haven asset. Gold futures were flat at $3,335.90 per ounce, at the time of writing, while spot gold advanced 0.1% to $3,341.97 per ounce. The precious metal lost some of its appeal as markets digested news of a new transatlantic trade deal that helped ease tensions between Washington and Brussels. The agreement has lifted broader market sentiment, weighing on gold, which tends to perform best during periods of heightened uncertainty. Stocks: Create your watchlist and portfolio Analysts noted that progress toward a trade truce lowered uncertainty, drawing funds into equities and reducing bullion's attraction. Gold's gains were further capped by investor caution ahead of a closely watched US Federal Reserve policy decision due later this week. The central bank is widely expected to leave its benchmark interest rate unchanged in the 4.25%-4.50% range when its two-day meeting concludes on Wednesday. "In the short term, we don't expect gold to experience wild swings. Investors are turning their focus to a pivotal week for US monetary policy and economic data," Jigar Trivedi, senior commodity analyst at Reliance Securities, told Reuters. Pound (GBPUSD=X, GBPEUR=X) The pound held flat against the US dollar on Monday morning, trading at $1.3424, as a quiet UK data calendar left the currency largely directionless and vulnerable to broader dollar moves ahead of a crucial week for US economic releases and Federal Reserve policy. The US dollar index ( which measures the greenback against a basket of six currencies, was higher at 97.88. Tuesday is set to bring the latest US job openings figures and consumer confidence data. While job openings are forecast to have declined in June, sentiment is expected to have improved in July, a combination that could generate mixed signals for the dollar. Wednesday's calendar features the first estimate of second-quarter US GDP growth and the Fed's interest rate decision. A strong GDP reading, coupled with continued resistance to near-term rate cuts, could provide fresh momentum for the dollar.

A rise in June's figure, as anticipated, would likely bolster the greenback further. However, Friday's non-farm payrolls report may temper the rally. The July data is expected to show a sharp slowdown in employment growth and a slight uptick in the unemployment rate from 4.1% to 4.2%, a figure that could put some downward pressure on the dollar. Elsewhere in currencies, the pound pushed higher against the euro. Sterling was up 0.3% against the single currency to trade at €1.1473 at the time of writing. In equities, the FTSE 100 (^FTSE) was in the green this morning, up 0.3% to 9,148 points. For more details, on market movements check our live coverage here.

Trump and Starmer to Meet in Scotland to Discuss Trade and Gaza

President Trump will host Prime Minister Keir Starmer of Britain at his two golf courses in Scotland on Monday, the day after announcing a deal with the European Union designed to avoid a costly economic war with America's biggest trading bloc. Mr. Trump announced on Sunday that Europe had agreed to tariffs of 15 percent on automobiles and most other E.U. goods, after meeting with Ursula von der Leyen, the president of the E.U.'s executive branch. The tariffs are higher than the 10 percent duty on most British goods that Britain, which is not in the European Union, agreed to in a deal that Mr. Starmer and Mr. Trump struck in May. The 27-nation bloc also agreed to buy $750 billion worth of U.S. energy and invest $600 billion in the United States, Mr. Trump said. Trade is among the topics that Mr. Trump and Mr. Starmer are expected to discuss when they meet first at Mr. Trump's Turnberry golf club on the west coast of Scotland and then travel to the other side of the country for dinner at the president's other club, in Aberdeen. The two leaders are expected to resume efforts to resolve a dispute about U.S. tariffs on British steel and aluminum, which remain at 25 percent. In June, Britain and the United States signed an agreement to resolve other trade issues, with both sides saying the deal would benefit both countries. British officials said they expect the all-day agenda to also include the humanitarian crisis in Gaza and the grinding war in Ukraine. Want all of The Times? Subscribe.
