SYDNEY, Aug 10 — Asian stocks traded sideways today, as concerns over the spread of the Delta variant and expectations of earlier tapering by the Federal Reserve offset strong corporate earnings, while gold and oil recovered after their sharp falls.

Other markets were set to open lower with S&P 500 futures dipping 0.12 per cent, Euro STOXX 50 futures down 0.01 per cent and FTSE futures off 0.15 per cent. Gold prices also recovered, after touching a four-month low yesterday as strong US jobs data bolstered expectations of an early tapering of the Federal Reserve’s economic support measures.

Oil prices recovered today after falling as much as 4 per cent in the previous session, which extended last week’s steep losses amid a rising US dollar and concerns that new coronavirus-related restrictions in China could slow a global revival in fuel demand. “Having swum from a very inflation-better opinion this year to a very disinflation view up to a week or so again, what we are we getting now again is another rotation into some of the reflation trades,” said Sean Darby, a Jefferies strategist in Hong Kong.

Investors were still assessing whether Friday’s strong US payrolls report would take the Fed a step nearer to winding back its stimulus and were eagerly awaiting inflation figures due tomorrow.
