Oil Rises
Oil rose for the first time in four days as the dollar fell after European governments offered debt-burdened Greece a rescue package and China increased crude imports to meet surging demand.
Oil advanced to $85.27 a barrel as the weaker dollar bolstered the appeal of commodities as an alternative investment.
“China is playing a key role in underpinning global demand for commodities, including crude,” said Toby Hassall, a research analyst at CWA Global Markets Pty in Sydney. “The Greek rescue plan, which is going to be driving the markets today, resolves a lot of the uncertainty. A weaker dollar is a supportive element for oil prices.”
Advancing stocks beat decliners by more than three to one on the MSCI Asia Pacific Index, where industrials and commodity producers rallied.. Japan’s Nikkei 225 Stock Average increased 1.1 percent, the biggest gain among major benchmarks in Asia.
BHP Billiton Ltd., the world’s largest mining company, gained 1.2 percent to A$44.41, Mitsubishi Corp., Japan’s largest commodities trader, climbed 2.1 percent to 2,493 yen.
