GLOBAL MARKETS-Oil up on Iran comments, Wall St ticks down

[Reuters - UK Focus] - NEW YORK, Oct (HKSE: 3366-OL.HK - news) 3 (Reuters) - An index of stocks across the world ended flat on Monday while Wall Street dipped, and oil prices rose to a three-month high after Iran's leader called on non-OPEC producers to help support prices. The U.S. dollar rose against a basket of its peers after strong manufacturing data, sterling brushed against a three-decade low versus the greenback and the Colombian peso fell after voters rejected a peace deal to end a more than 50-year-old war. Traders were on the lookout for news from Deutsche Bank (LSE: 0H7D.L - news) , which is working to reach a settlement with U.S. authorities who have demanded a fine of up to $14 billion for the way the bank sold toxic mortgage-backed securities.
