In the global market, U.S. Treasury yields fell to near their lowest levels in 2024 Thursday as higher than expected jobless claims suggested that the labor market was cooling. Furthermore, Oil prices edged higher on Thursday, boosted by the U.S. Federal Reserve signalling a possible start to interest rate cuts in coming months.
