The S&P 500 rose 0.95% while the Nasdaq Composite climbed 0.94%. The three major indices opened solidly lower but turned positive as the day progressed following the decline of bond yields. Major retailers have delivered their mixed earning reports, adding some volatility to the equities market. The mixed reports signalled the potential recession or a rapid change in consumer spending.

A widely followed Federal Reserve member has started indicating that the US economy could be headed for a second successive quarter of negative growth, meeting a rule-of-thumb definition for a so-called recession.

Main Pairs Movement

WTI extended its consolidation toward the 118.00 level amid concerns about the oil supply. At the same time, oil prices witnessed a strong upside movement to the expectation of a demand recovery in China. On the supply side, the American Petroleum Institute has agreed to increase the supply by 1.845 million barrels, but it seemed to do minimal impact on the oil prices as the boost of the oil supply was still far to offset the supply gap from Russia.

AUD/USD climbed 0.54% on Tuesday following the monetary decision from RBA, lifting the rate by 0.50%, higher than expected. The RBA pointed out that inflation in Australia has surged significantly, and the RBA was needed to tackle the inflationary pressure by being more aggressive on the rates.
