The conflicting signals sent markets on a rollercoaster, with oil prices surging and stock markets nosediving before swinging in the other direction after Trump's comments and reports of a possible ease in sanctions on Russian energy.

The rule also specifies that if an umpire notices a player wearing jewellery, 'the Player will be asked to leave the ground and may only come back on once the jewellery has been removed.'
