GBP
soars after polls favour
Britain staying in EU
UK referendum polls move the markets up and down it seems that the
REMAIN camp is favored but market stress is expected to remain at present
levels until the vote on Thursday.
According
to a poll for weekly
newspaper The Mail On Sunday, support for Britain staying in the EU went up three points, with 45 per
cent, compared to 42 per cent support for Brexit.
A telephone survey for the Scottish newspaper The Herald, showed that 46 per cent of
voters support the Remain campaign, compared to 43 per cent who advocate exit
from the bloc
Investors reacted after three of six opinion
polls published over the weekend showed a shift towards keeping Britain in the
EU, with some citing the killing last week of pro-EU lawmaker Jo Cox as a
factor.
Prior to the latest polls, data from the Commodity Futures Trading Commission
released on Friday showed speculators
reduced their net short positions against Sterling in the latest week, from a
three-year high.

The
Indian rupee nosedived nearly 1 per cent in early trade on Monday in a
knee-jerk reaction to Raghuram Rajan’s abrupt decision to step down as the RBI
governor following the end of his term in September.
However,
recovery in the Indian equities helped rupee pare some of early losses.
CRUDE OIL:
Saudi Arabia's crude oil exports also dropped despite high production levels,
suggesting demand remains in a deficit to supply.
The world's largest oil exporter and OPEC heavyweight produced 10.262 million bpd in April,
compared with 10.224 million bpd a month earlier, the data showed.
Potentially adding to supply, Iran has increased its crude exports capacity at
its main terminal on Kharg Island to allow eight tankers to load
simultaneously, the oil ministry's news agency Shana reported on Monday.
With oil prices up more than 30 percent this year, shale drillers are looking at
turning the taps on again and have proved resilient beyond Saudi and
OPEC expectations.
Norway could face a rig
strike from midnight Tuesday if a state-appointed mediator fails to unite
unions and employers in a two-day negotiation attempt starting Monday.
