Gold and Oil Fall Sharply as Dubai Debt Fear Drives Investors Out of Risks

27 November 2009 @ 08:57 am EDT

Commodities drop sharply around the world as markets sentiments are deeply pressured by risk of contagion effect from Dubai debt payment delay request which could trigger second wave in the credit crisis. Gold extended the decline from record high of 1195 and falls sharply to as low as 1130 level before recovering. Crude oil's selloff also accelerates after taking out 75.57 support and reaches as low as 72.39 so far. Global stocks are under much pressure with Nikkei closed -3.22% low at 9081. European stocks are also sharply lower with FTSE 100 and DAX dropping more than -1% in initial trading.
