Oil Extends Gains as Iran Talks Collapse; Gold Slips on Rate-Hike Threat

Brent +0.8% to $96.81 and WTI +1.0% to $94.67 after Iran suspended talks and launched overnight missile strikes on Bahrain and Kuwait. Gold fell 0.3–0.8% to ~$4,471–4,499 as the oil surge fired rate-hike expectations (Cleveland Fed's Hammack: hike may be needed 'in the near future'). LME copper eased 0.43% to $13,980/t on profit-taking; iron ore slid 1.22% to $103.95/t on steel-margin pressure and seasonal weakness. Corn and soybeans fell on favorable U.S. crop weather. ADP payrolls and ISM Services PMI due today; NFP Friday; OPEC+ June 7.
