“We expect prices and EBITDA to remain historically high. The aggregate EBITDA decline will be driven by steel (non-US) and iron ore producers as their earnings are decreasing from unsustainably high levels because of high energy and input costs. EBITDA will rise for other commodity producers, supported by continued high prices,” said Barbara Mattos, Senior Vice-President, Moody’s Investors Service.
Rupee edges towards all-time low vs dollar as US 10-year yield surges past 3%
- The rupee weakened versus the greenback on Tuesday as speculation of the Federal Reserve raising rates aggressively sent yield on the US 10-year bond surging past the 3 per cent market.
- The sharp rise in US bond yields led to a global strengthening of the greenback, with the dollar index climbing to 102.69 on Tuesday. The index was at 102.10 at the end of the previous week.

The market direction is likely to be influenced more by the inflation in the US, which, in turn, will decide how far the Fed will go in raising rates. This will be the key determinant of possible ‘risk on’ or ‘risk off’ in equity markets globally.
