Emerging-market stocks had the biggest advance in a month, led by Brazilian equities, as commodity producers surged after data showing slower inflation in China eased pressure for monetary tightening.
China National Building Material Co. jumped 5.8 percent in Hong Kong, while Drake & Scull International PJSC sent Dubai shares to the highest level since 2009. OAO Lukoil, Russia�� biggest non-state oil company, added 2.1 percent. Brazil�� Bovespa (IBOV) index gained the most in a month as iron-ore producer Vale SA rallied. Thailand�� baht breached 29 per dollar for the first time since 1997 and South Korea�� won strengthened.
The MSCI Emerging Markets Index added 0.9 percent to 1,015.93 in New York, rebounding from the lowest level since Nov. 30. China�� inflation eased more than forecast from a 10-month high as food-price gains ebbed, reducing pressure on policy makers to tighten credit as the world�� second-largest economy recovers from a slowdown.
��rospects for emerging markets still look great,�� Alistair Way, the Edinburgh-based investment director for emerging market equities at Standard Life Investments Ltd, said in a phone interview. His firm manages about $272.6 billion. The Chinese data ��s broadly a positive,��he said.

Did you miss today's 123% pop from Clean Diesel Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ:CDTI)? If you didn't chase it higher after the bullish gap left behind at the open, then good for you - you made the right choice. As tempting as CDTI looked then (and still does), the bulk of any near-term gain here has already been realized, and there's no real point in jumping on the bandwagon now. Fear not if you missed the big move from Clean Diesel Technologies though. There's another, smaller name playing the same game, and you won't have to pay a fortune for it just to take a big risk.
