GLOBAL MARKETS ROUNDUP : 05.06.2014

GLOBAL MARKETS ROUNDUP
    * Asian share markets grudgingly gave ground on Thursday
while the euro flatlined at $1.3600, hostage to great
expectations that the European Central Bank will finally end
months of dithering by easing policy further.
    * The euro languished at four-month lows early on Thursday
with investors firmly sidelined as they waited to see what
measures the ECB would implement to tackle the threat of
deflation.
    * Brent crude slipped to a three-week low at $108 on
Thursday on ample supply in the United States and as tensions
over Ukraine cooled.
    * U.S. Treasuries yields edged up on Wednesday as investors
took profits from the recent rally, before Thursday's highly
anticipated ECB meeting.
