Meanwhile, oil prices are back and forth on Thursday after rallying on an unexpected drop in U.S. crude inventories in the previous session, as investors awaited the outcome of U.S.-Iran nuclear talks that could add crude supplies quickly to global markets. Robust demand recovery from the coronavirus pandemic has kept global oil supplies snug, with inventories at key fuel hubs globally hovering at multi-year lows.
U.S. crude inventories fell 4.8 million barrels in the week to February 4, dropping to 410.4 million barrels - their lowest for commercial inventories since October 2018, the EIA said. Analysts in a Reuters poll had forecast a 369,000-barrel rise. U.S. product supplied - the best proxy for demand - peaked at 21.9 million bpd over the past four weeks due to strong economic activity nationwide, EIA data showed. "We are seeing some consolidation after a fairly constructive EIA report," said Warren Patterson, ING's head of commodities research.

Equities turned lower, Treasury yields spiked, with the 10-year rising to 1.986%, the US Dollar gained, and expectations for larger and quicker rate hikes from the Fed emerged.
