Morning Bid: Markets catch a break before inflation, earnings

Thanks largely to a stabilisation of bond markets and an ebbing of the super-strong dollar, global stocks caught a rare new year bid on Tuesday with critical inflation and corporate earnings updates now in view.

Oil shipping rates surge after US sanctions hit availability

SINGAPORE (Reuters) -Supertanker freight rates jumped after the U.S. expanded sanctions on Russia's oil industry, sending traders rushing to book vessels to ship supply from other countries to China and India, shipbrokers and traders said. Chinese and Indian refiners are seeking alternative fuel supplies as they adapt to severe new U.S. sanctions on Russian producers and tankers designed to curb the world No. 2 oil exporter's revenue due to its war in Ukraine. Many of the newly-targeted vessels, part of a so-called shadow fleet that seeks to avoid Western restrictions, have been used to ship oil to India and China, which snapped up cheap Russian supply that was banned in Europe following Moscow's invasion of Ukraine.
