- Moving on to the exchange rate, the Khmer riel to USD remained stable at 4,010 riel per US dollar, while the US Dollar Index was down to 97.69.
- Looking at global commodities, oil prices climbed more than $1 dollar on Monday, regaining some of last week's losses, helped by the prospect of more sanctions on Russian crude after an overnight strike on Ukraine.
- OPEC+ flagged plans to further increase production from October, but the amount was modest.
- Brent crude climbed $1.24 dollars, or 1.9%, to $66.74 US dollars a barrel, while U.S. West Texas Intermediate crude rose $1.17 dollars, or 1.9%, to $63.04 US dollars a barrel. (0640 GMT)
- Both benchmarks fell more than 2% on Friday as a weak U.S. jobs report dimmed the outlook for energy demand. They lost more than 3% last week.
- Gold prices rose to a record high, breaking through a key $3,600 dollar level after soft U.S. jobs data cemented expectations of an interest rate cut by the U.S. Federal Reserve at its meeting next week.

- Bullion has surged 37% so far this year, building on a 27% gain in 2024, driven by a weaker dollar, strong central bank buying, a soft monetary policy backdrop, and geopolitical and economic uncertainty.
- U.S. gold futures for December delivery were unchanged at $3,653.10 US dollars.
- US stock futures moved up a little on Monday. Investors are waiting for new inflation numbers, since there aren’t many other big events on the calendar during what is usually the slowest month of the year.
- As of the time of the Cambodian market’s closing, Futures on the Dow Jones Industrial Average and the S&P 500 both ticked up roughly 0.2%.
- Contracts on the Nasdaq 100 were slightly more upbeat, trading about 0.3% higher.
