Mcx Gold Commodity market Trading fell as of yesterday’s closing, we have seen sharp movement in international markets as it surged in late night trade tracking huge slump in US Dollar after the release of FOMC Meeting minutes. Spot Gold jumped heavily late night IST and its repercussions are being reflected on Comex prices today which are standing with a gain of 1.6percentage to $1225 per ounce mark. However, note that other than FED related cues which we were anticipating to drive good volatility in the commodity, all other factors still call for bearish sentiment to continue in near-term. On that note, we are daring to maintain our bearish bias in the commodity however advice traders to only look for momentum trades. At the domestic market gold may see a gap wherein those initiating Shorts are advised to maintain strict SL above 27000 at MCX Dec contract. Gold Dec prices at Comex moved in-line with our view yesterday with the commodity largely traded in a ranged manner with negative bias. Comex Gold active contract slipped 0.5percentage to $1206 r ounce whereas at MCX Gold Dec gained 0.15percentage to Rs 26880 per 10 Gms.

Global Market View: Today’s morning session, all the Asian markets are trading on a positive note tracking the spectacular bounce of the US markets. S&P 500 closed at 1968.59 up by 1.75 following the FED minutes from the September meetings which were released last night. From reading between the lines, one can now assume that the speculation about an early rate hike from the US would recede in the near term. SGX Nifty is trading on a positive note up by 40.00 points in early trade this morning, indicating a pull back from the recent declines. Dollar index has declined after the Fed minutes last night and is currently trading at 85.30. Most of the global currencies have appreciated with respect to the dollar.

Bullion rose as Fed officials expressed concern that US economy may be at risk from a global slowdown. For today is concerned, we may see some a bit of moderate positivism extending though overall trend has not changed still. For today we suggest making only momentary trades. We also expect that in intraday, once again good volatility during the US session on bullion as the jobless numbers are likely to rise. Onto the Ratio side, we advised Gold/Silver Ratio buying wherein traders might have made modest profit as per closing. Nevertheless, those who carried forward could have seen their gains reversing down as we are seeing the opposite forces playing in against our view that silver would underperform gold. We advice traders holding the ratio to maintain stop loss with reduced risk exposure. Fresh positions should be avoided as market lack clarity at this point Silver followed similar path as gold with the commodity though it saw good underperformance as equated to gold, as also been our view yesterday. Silver comex Dec contract slumped 1percentage to $17.06 per ounce while MCX silverwork same month’s expiry skid 0.3percentage to Rs 38220 per Kg.

Crude commodity market Trading as per major global update, IMF yesterday said economic growth in the US which was aiding a helping hand to the global economy as other major economies still remained under doldrums was getting weaker as equated to IMF’s own forecast a couple of month back. It added, some financial markets may be overheating backed by sustained period of near-zero rates which pushed the major equity markets globally down with the US lading around 1.5percentage yesterday. The agency, trimmed its global growth forecast to 3.3percentage for 2013 as compared to 3.4percentage earlier whereas reduced the next years forecast too. In other commodity related developments which further weighed oil were expectations over increase in crude inventories with continued drop in refinery utilization rate. As per Bloomberg survey, crude stocks likely increased by 2 million barrels last week. Though moderate increase was anticipated in terms of products side, overall bias continues to be weaker. If we look at the API stocks report released today morning (IST); news repts showed huge build in crude inventories by 5.1 million barrels adding to negative pressure on the commodity. There are no major data points to be watched on the economic side today though the late night FOMC minutes for Sept 16-17 meeting might create good volatility in commodities and equities alike. On crude, weaker equities and largely stable to negative expectations from inventory report would continue to push the commodity lower. With the EIA too in its STEO report cutting price and demand forecast for the commodity in medium-term, we feel overall trade would continue to be lower.

Global Market View: In today’s morning session, Asian markets are trading on a negative note tracking the negative US markets. S&P 500 closed at 1935.10 down by 1.51 percent as markets are feeling jittery about the earning season that is to begin this week while IMF’s global economic growth forecasts too hurting equities.

Euro is trading on a marginally positive note to the dollar in the morning session at 1.2634, and Pound too is currently trading on an appreciating note at 1.6064.

Economic data: No major data except by the FOMC’s meeting minute is scheduled.

We had maintained bearish bias in the commodity on expectations that warmer to largely normalized temperatures were seen in much of US Western and North-Central region which might continue to keep demand for the commodity subdued in coming days As per Bloomberg news, WSI Corp earlier said temperatures would be mostly normal or higher than usual in the lower 48 states from Oct. 11 through Oct. 15. On additional negative note, EIA in its STEO said, Households relying on NG will see heating costs drop 4.6percentage to $649 as compared to previous winter. Continued higher supplies are expected to keep a lid over the commodity in coming winter. We hold moderate selling bias in the commodity today. Natural gas prices are taking us on a ride with the commodity witnessing wide fluctuations in intraday movement with or without the same developments over weather. After a big over 3.5percentage drop in NG on Monday, we saw November expiry contract advanced 1.5percentage to $3.96 per MMBTU whereas in MCX NG added 1percentage to Rs 243.5 mark.

Gold commodity Trading market held a ranged trade yesterday wherein this morning too electronic session prices too trade with little movement. Though overall trend still remains down, we understand that the trend is down but the prices trading in oversold territory is probably halting the metal to trade flat while permitting against fresh round of sell off. Also, weaker equities across major economies might have helped gold and silver to trade sideways to marginally positive despite weaker other commodity asset classes. For the day, we hold a cautious bearish outlook on the Gold and recommend selling the commodity from higher levels. EU CPI and US Consumer confidence data would be tracked. Gold Dec prices were largely steady last day as industrial commodities mainly and equities witnessed decent volatility with the Comex yellow metal trading in a small band between $1224 and $1215 per ounce mark before closing higher by 0.3percentage to $1219.  Indian MCX Gold for to be active December contract gained modestly better with the help of Rupee and added 0.45percentage to Rs 26915 per 10 Grams

Global Market View: First day of the week is over and as we start new day, Asian equity markets are trading negative following cues from US markets while the South American equity indices have declined the most. From the global FX front, the USD index remained steady, pound sterling; euro and the Japanese Yen too have declined a tad. We do not understand the exact reason for so much of disparity. We talk about commodities, though gold and silver remained steady but unexpectedly oil and the industrial metals moved up. We may possibly look at the US treasury yield which has fallen to 2.4771percentage may have been a reason for some of the commodities to drive higher whereas for the WTI, refinery outages producing gasoline commodity probably aided the extra bit of gains.

Economic data: HSBC China Manufacturing PMI stood at 50.20, down from prior number of 50.50. India credit policy meeting, retail sales from Germany and EU CPI gauge. US S&P Case-Shriller index, Chicago PMI and Consumer Confidence Index

On a broader perspective, we are holding near similar stand for the commodity as with gold as prices related direction stays same for the two, with gold driving the movement. While we saw modest gains in the two metals yesterday, prices mainly for silver continue to hover in oversold phase. Yesterday too we said, silver has slumped nearly 18percentage in last 11 weeks and trades in oversold phase on weekly scenario. On that note, we are shifting our intraday view towards buying, notwithstanding the subdued or bearish outlook continuing over the short-to-medium-term time frame. Note that, US data on regional PMI and Consumer confidence would be watched other than the EU CPI. In case US data comes very strong, we could see fresh round of weakness building in Bullion complex which is the only risk against our intraday view Silver along with Gold traded in a range manner though performance for December month contract was marginally better to $17.50 per ounce, higher by 0.55percentage Silver MCX for same months expiry locally gained by 0.5percentage with prices ending at Rs 39355 per Kg

Crude oil commodity market trading has the major cues for the WTI last week, the DoE stocks data showed crude supplies falling by 4.27 million barrels, higher than our and markets forecast wherein products too depicted a moderate improvement, especially the gasoline which showed inventories fell by 414,000 barrels. Note that last week’s bullish inventory data from the crude stocks front should not be taken as a trend changer as crude stocks fell due to higher refinery utilization and lower imports to the US.

A report from Platt’s showed total US imports declined 1.244 MBPD to 6.87 MBPD on a week on week comparison. However, positivity could be taken from the fact that gasoline stocks fell whereas its implied demand increased moderately. Earlier we had talked about the internal variables for WTI wherein while prices were largely flattish on a weekly comparison, backwardation between WTI Nov-Dec contract stayed flat around 55-60 cents. However in the past week we have seen increase in prices go along the increase in backwardation which suggests modest increase in immediate demand for WTI. For the day, as per Brent oil price direction is concerned, we are still holding bearish bias while for WTI is concerned, the view for the day may be ranged to moderately positive as on one end the commodity takes negative cues from weaker economy and equity related cues though its inherent strength might continue to aid the optimism, as also seen in the previous week. While the Euro area data is likely to pull the shared currency and may add some pressure on the WTI, we advice buying the same on dips.

Global Market View: Let us start the week with euphoria and trade smart. This morning Asian markets are trading mixed while Hang Seng has fallen out rightly by more than one and half per cent. From the global markets- the USD index is managing to trade strong at 85.68, euro down at $1.2679, British pound steady and the Japanese Yen is managing above 109.40. Over the weekend there has been no major development except that the US and its ally’s strikes over Syrian region continued.

Economic data: We have the euro-zone confidence numbers which are more or less likely to deteriorate. We have German CPI and later today from the US, personal income & spending and the pending home sales number along with Dallas Fed manufacturing index. In commodities, most of them are trading steady this morning while going ahead we may see good movement in the market.

Natural gas commodity market had saw strong gains in the last week though on a broader sense, NG in the US has been trading in a major consolidating range between the $3.75 to $4.10 per MMBTU for past many weeks now. Last week, we saw the commodity took positive developments over weather which may support the same over a couple of days as well. Weather forecasts from the US CPC show below normal temperatures over a central US up till second week of 10th of October which may add some demand however we could see normalized temperatures later which could once again start inflicting the commodity direction from higher levels. For Intraday, we advice traders taking long positions for small targets.

Mcx Gold Commodity market largely stayed weak yesterday but the pace of loss was meager while this morning it is trading down marginally at$1215 weaker by 0.3percentage at Comex. It looks like the trend may remain bearish for today. Robust US economic data over New Home sales driving good gains in the US equity markets meanwhile Dollar too inched higher. Additional gains in USDX came as Euro slipped on speculation that weakening economic cues would push central bank to add more stimuli. Declining Euro, feeble investment demand and subdued tensions are all likely to pull the gold prices lower in today’s session as well. Also, the Indian rupee is expected to trade modestly higher which should help locally non agri commodities to trade down. We maintain sell stance today.

Crude commodity market has a Bloomberg survey, crude stockpiles expanded by around 750,000 barrels in the past week to 363 million. Distillate inventories on the other side are seen rising by 500,000 barrels while little changes is seen on the gasoline supplies front. Note that we have been maintaining a bearish bias over inventory data and mainly on Crude stocks as well as refinery utilization front which historically moves into seasonal maintenance during this time of the year. However, if we look at the other similar data from the private sector major API, news reports showed crude inventories dropped by huge 6.5 million barrels last week whereas stockpiles at Cushing rose moderately to 158,000 barrels. Though the same data showed no major demand coming as both gasoline and distillate stocks rose, this surely calls for a case wherein refinery activity might have increased last week. On a cumulative note, data release from the government backed DoE if follows the reading from API, it would be taken positively albeit with a pinch oas we still lack actual consumption. Looking at other international cues, spread between the two major benchmarks WTI and Brent slipped further to $5.10 levels. Looking at developments, Libya once again saw its oil production increasing to 800,000 barrels a day as the Sahara field restarted yesterday, report showed. That could be one of the major reasons behind Brent underperforming WTI in a big way yesterday despite the positivity over geo-political tensions front. We had a bullish view on WTI oil last day which went well wherein for the day we continue to hold modest bullish bias in the commodity. We suggest making momentary trades on the positive side for the day

Global Market View: Tuesday saw stocks falling off the cliff on global growth concerns as French and German flash PMIs came in lower than what market would have liked. The US posted a negative close so Asians are trading mostly mixed to slightly bearish this morning. From the global currency front, the USD index remained steady at 84.64, the shared currency euro is managing at $1.2853 while Yen and the pound sterling revived a slight gain in the morning. Coming to commodities, gold and silver were awfully volatile while they ended the day with marginal change from the previous close and this morning trading at$1223 and $17.73 mostly steady from the previous close. We saw a good recovery in oil prices especially the Tirade while Brent remained down. From the base metals front markets were all down except Nickel.

Natural Gas commodity market the latest developments in the markets, MDA Weather Services said the West Coast through the Midwest and into the Northeast will see above-normal temperatures over the next five days though if we check a separate weather forecasting report from the government we are getting conflicting view. Midday weather update of the government’s Global Forecast System “was a lot more moderate,” showing above-normal temperatures across most of the East Coast and South 11 to 15 days from yesterday, according to from Frontier Weather Inc. This could be one of the reasons behind gains getting faded away for NG and it closing lower. On Stocks front too, initial expectations depict inventories might have increased by 97 BCF, higher than last week data. We hold selling stance in the commodity today

Mcx Gold commodity market was trading good slide in yesterday trade and likely that weakness would continue today following better equity movement in Asia today. However, note that losses especially in gold might remain minimal today as there are no major economic cues to be watched from the US whereas the Greenback has fallen at a good rate and could provide some support to the yellow metal. There are no major changes seen over physical demand side or either the ETF side though it would not be surprising for us if we see some short-covering post the commodity slipped down to fresh 8 month lows in the week. We maintain selling view for small targets today.

Gold continued its downward spiral during the week with the metal trading lower by almost all of the day before managing modest pullback toward the end of the day.

Crude oil commodity trading  held a cautious approach yesterday wherein we advised traders to look for only momentary trades as on one side largely positive equities, cues from PBOC and OPEC supply cut comments were seen adding fresh increase in the commodity though we were expecting some weakness to be held due to negative expectations over inventory data.

As per the commodity stocks report from the DoE, crude inventories gained 3.67 million barrels against markets forecast of a fall in the range of 1.5 million, though we were anticipating as weaker reading. If we look into products gasoline stocks fell at a decent rate though could not provide any major support to prices which closed weaker by 0.5percentageyesterday. Gasoline inventories fell by 1.6 million barrels while distillate stock increased by 279,000 barrels.

As of early Asian trade, we are looking at a weaker WTI and Brent oil prices where both of them down by over 0.5percentage. For the day, weaker expectations over US housing and manufacturing related data, strong gains in US Dollar and dragging effect of the subdued US stocks report would keep the commodity under pressure wherein we recommend selling the same at the NYMEX and MCX commodity markets for small targets.

Global Market View: Dollar is turning out to be the emperor of the currency markets this year with the Index moving to multi-year highs to 84.65 marks after taking positive cues from the FOMC meeting. Euro fell whereas Japanese Yen too slid to multi-year lows. Though the US FOMC meeting outcome looked a bit hawkish at first glance, the FED continued to claim its commitment towards lower levels of interest rates for the foreseeable future and re-iterated its view over labor market wherein the same still need very good improvement over wages growth front. Asian markets are trading on a mixed to positive note following moderate positivity in US equities which closed higher.

Economic data: EU Targeted LTRO Update, US Building Permits, Housing Starts, Philly Fed Manufacturing Index and Weekly Jobless claims data

Natural gas commodity trading market prices continued to track positive short-term developments over warmer weather forecasts in the US West. We held a positive bias yesterday though today have a cautious view as the commodity may see good volatility due stocks report. Early estimates stand for a addition of around 90 BCF, similar a last week though we feel am modest chance for positivism can be there in inventory as US recorded good amount of cooler temperatures lately. For the day, we have a ranged view in the commodity. Still short-term view in the commodity still remains weak.
