MARKET IS EXPECTED TO MOVE SIDEWAYS.

Zinc rose the most in more than a week.

A stronger U.S. currency discourages holders of other

monies to buy dollar-denominated commodities, which

become more expensive to them.

Zinc rose as much as $70, or 3.8 percent, to $1,915 a ton,

the biggest intraday gain since July 11.
