Global stocks buoyed by renewed risk appetite; oil rebounds

Oil prices rebounded from concerns the spread of Omicron would crimp demand for fuel and signs of improving supply.A somber U.S. trading session on Monday underscored market fears that rapidly rising cases of the coronavirus variant would yet again force governments around the world to impose lockdown measures, potentially choking off fragile economic recoveries from similar measures earlier in the year.

Still, investors were on Tuesday cautiously optimistic that the economic hit would not be as severe this time, buying stocks and selling perceived safe-haven currencies such as the dollar and Japanese yen. The U.S. Dollar Currency Index was near flat on the day at around 96.53 after slipping as low as 96.336 earlier in the session.Elsewhere, cryptocurrencies - which often offer a reliable gauge to risk sentiment - gained ground. Bitcoin added more than 3% after trending lower in recent weeks.
