May 22 (Reuters) - Most major stock markets in the Gulf slipped on Wednesday amid falling oil prices, with
investors awaiting minutes of the U.S. Federal Reserve's latest policy meeting for clues on the timing of a rate
cut.
Oil prices, a catalyst for the Gulf's financial markets, dropped for a third straight session, with Brent down 1%
at $82.07 a barrel by 1310 GMT.
