  "account": "Oil prices surged over 2% in Tuesday's trading, boosted by indications of a recovery in crude exports from the region. Brent crude futures climbed more than 2%, climbing to $107.44 per barrel, while the highly traded December futures also increased by over 2% to reach $99.87 per barrel. US crude futures also rose more than 2%, hitting $94.50 per barrel.\n\nIn contrast, gold prices remained stable on Tuesday but hovered near a seven-week low due to concerns about the Federal Reserve potentially maintaining higher interest rates for an extended period, while investors awaited a series of US economic data. Spot gold settled at $4,124.57 per ounce, after reaching its lowest level since August 5 in the previous session. US gold futures declined by 0.3% to $4,156.70.\n\nSilver prices dropped 0.6% to $60.62, while platinum fell 1% to $1,699.86.
