Marketmind: Oil, yield spike takes wind out of market sails

- A look at the day ahead in Asian markets from Jamie McGeever, financial markets columnist.

Australia's economy is expected to have grown at a faster quarter-on-quarter rate of 0.3% than the 0.2% registered in the January-March period, and at a 1.8% annual rate, which would be down from 2.3% in Q1. The flip side of that was another leg up for the U.S. dollar. There are still three trading days left this week but if the dollar index closes in the green it will mark an eighth weekly rise in a row, matching the longest winning run since December 2014-January 2015.
