Global Markets Rise as Bond Yields and Oil Prices Ease
NEW YORK — October 2, 2026
Global markets edged higher on Friday as bond yields and oil prices eased, while investors awaited key U.S. employment data for clues on the Federal Reserve’s next interest-rate decision.
European shares gained, while U.S. Treasury yields remained elevated after recently reaching multi-year highs. Meanwhile, Brent crude moved below $100 a barrel, easing some concerns over inflation.
Investors are now watching the U.S. jobs report closely, as the data could influence expectations for monetary policy and market conditions in the final quarter of 2026.
Market focus: interest rates, inflation, oil prices, corporate earnings and continued investment in artificial intelligence.
