US crude oil futures closed up 5.85% at $92.47 per barrel; Brent crude oil futures rose 4.62% to $95.33 per barrel.

GBP/USD rises above 1.1300, gaining 0.25 percent intraday, as investors praise a weakening US dollar and await a resolution to the UK's parliamentary upheaval on Tuesday morning. Nevertheless, a dearth of significant data/events and sluggish markets, in addition to the immediate technical problems, present obstacles for pair buyers following a bad start to the week.

 

Following his election as the third British Prime Minister in less than two months, former Financial Minister Rishi Sunak reminded his followers that the United Kingdom is experiencing a "serious economic problem." The politician continued, "We now require stability and unity, and I will make unifying our party and our nation my top priority." GBP/USD buyers are hopeful about surviving the month-long political uncertainty due to Sunak's credibility, which is partly related to his expertise at Goldman Sachs and his ability to accurately predict financial turmoil if Liz Truss implements her fiscal stimulus.
