Ashutosh Raina of HDFC Bank said, "The somewhat stable situation in Greece and chances of a Fed rate hike sent dollar soaring with Gold hitting a 5-year low." The dollar reached its highest in three months against a basket of currencies on a rise in US bond yields as traders built bets the Federal Reserve would raise interest rates later this year. Wall Street finished little changed on Monday as a better-than-expected start to corporate earnings season boosted investor confidence, but gains were curbed by a drop in commodities. Gold prices plunged to their lowest in more than five years while copper prices hit their lowest in nearly two weeks. Oil prices fell on signs of a growing glut in refined products to pull the S&P energy index down 1.3 percent. Asian stocks traded mixed early Tuesday, as traders kept a wary eye on the drop in commodity prices.
