Specifically, Iran\u2019s joining in the conflict has been in close focus, given that the country is the world\u2019s fifth-largest producer of oil.<\/p>\n<h2 dir=\"ltr\">Chinese, Japanese economic cues on tap<\/h2>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Markets were also awaiting more cues on economic conditions in the world\u2019s largest oil importer, China, with third-quarter  data due later this week.
