Oil Falls Third Session on Saudi Supply Ease; Gold Nears $4400, Yen Dips Despite BOJ Hike

Oil prices declined for a third session as market concerns over Saudi supply disruptions eased, while gold strengthened toward $4400, reflecting persistent safe-haven demand. The yen weakened despite the Bank of Japan raising rates to a 31-year high, suggesting market focus on policy divergence and global risk sentiment. The mixed moves indicate ongoing cross-asset repricing amid geopolitical and monetary policy uncertainty.
