MCX & Commodity News For the Weak


Industrial metals prices slipped yesterday due to uncertainty over the outlook for demand, increased by a fall in the number of U.S. house building projects being started in November, while investors also kept a close watch on budget talks in the United States.  European lead and zinc premiums were unchanged this week as prices on the London Metal Exchange remained elevated with lead prices touching a year high, market participants said. South Africa is drawing up laws to force platinum and iron ore miners to sell "small amounts" of production to local processors at a discount to diversify its economy, a top trade ministry official said on Wednesday.
Nickel and gold miner MRL Gold Philippines Inc. will invest $100 million in a nickel processing plant in Agata, Surigao del Norte in 2014. The plant, once operational, will process up to 500,000 metric tons of nickel ore to produce 7,000 metric tons of nickel annually using the cheaper atmospheric leach process. Some banks have tightened credit for imports of refined copper by China, the world's largest consumer of the metal, as stocks pile up in bonded warehouses and prices hover below London rates, reducing buying of the metal and keeping premiums low. Global stainless steel output rose 2.9 percent for the first nine months of the year compared with the same period last year, boosted by record production in the third quarter, the industry body ISSF said in a report on Tuesday

Commodity News today : 22 oct . 20122


Gold and Silver 
 Yesterday Gold closed almost unchanged at $1749. The metal continues to consolidate the nasty fall from $1795 to $1730over the past two week. From a price perspective, while the metal holds below $1758, the risk is to the downside. Our short term target after $1730 is $1693, which is the 38.2% retracement of the may to September up move ($1528 to $1795).
Silver was slightly higher yesterday and closed at $33.14.the metal is still weak following the impulsive downfall fro $35.10 to $32.57 in the last couple of week. We need a close above $33.59 to remove the negative bias. Our initial target $31.84.

Crude Oil 
Enthusiasm in WTI was perhaps somewhat dampened by the strong build in EIA crude oil inventories. The report stated:U.S. commercial crude oil inventories (excluding those in the Strategic Petroleum Reserve) increased by 2.9 million barrels from the previous week. At 369.2 million barrels, U.S. crude oil inventories are above the upper limit of the average range for this time of year.

 MCX crude oil is range bound in between 4800 and 4930. As crude is manage to holds above 4856, it looks good to me and there could be chance for a upside momentum. Price could test 5030, if there will be a close above 4940 levels.

Daily Commodity news : 16 oct 12


Gold futures fell more than 1%, as data from two of the world’s biggest economies helped spur an overall rally in global stock markets while a stronger US dollar added further pressure on the precious metal.

Silver holdings of ishares silver trust, the largest ETF backed by the metal, declined to 9,885.54 tons, as on Oct, 15.

Copper futures fell to a one-month low, on concern that policy makers in China, the biggest consumer of the metal, may refrain from additional economic stimulus after exports grew more than expected in September.The world refined zinc market is expected to be in surplus of 153,000 tons in the year 2012 and a more significant excess of 293,000 tons anticipated in 2013, as per ILZSG.

Crude oil futures bounced back from a dip below $90 per barrel to closed on a flat note, as traders mulled over economic data from the US.

Natural gas futures dropped for the first time in 6-sessions, on forecasts of warmer-than-normal weather in US that would reduce consumption of the heating fuel.

Commodity News For 15 oct 12


Gold prices moved lower amid better flow of macroeconomic numbers in US. Better than expected consumer sentiment dented the safe have appeal to an extent. In spite of the recent weakness in the precious metals complex, we infer that gold prices should find support around US$1,740/ounce levels. On the domestic front, Rs31,000/10gms act as a good support level.  

Base metals ended lower, devoid of any impetus.  Market participants are waiting for further direction from the slew of Chinese macroeconomic numbers scheduled to be released this week, including industrial
production and Q3 GDP data. In the meantime, better than expected Chinese trade data should provide some kind of support to the non‐ferrous complex. China's exports grew at roughly twice the rate expected in September while imports also expanded.

Crude oil futures ended lower, as lower global demand estimates from EIA and weak economic growth forecasts across various geographies have managed to offset the looming geopolitical tensions emanating from the Middle East.
