World stocks snapped a two-day decline on Tuesday as treasury yields climbed and the dollar strengthened which had eased concerns about a global recession. Oil prices also popped up off their multi month lows that were seen on Monday as market focus moved towards the supply side problems. The 10 percent Nikkei’s rise in Tokyo eased fear after its volatile 12. Monday’s 4% for the worst daily decline since the 1987 Black Monday crash. Indices in the U. S. also rose sharply with the Dow being the major gainer, up by 1. 75%, the S&P 500 as well up 2. , Dow Jones down 1%, S&P 500 down 0. 41%, and the Nasdaq up 2. 56%. While July employment numbers suggest the US wasn’t adding as many jobs as financial markets and analysts expected, Federal Reserves says it is not the sign of a free-fall. Global stock baron MSCI advanced with more than 2 per cent which was its best single day percent since late December.
