BULLION:-
Gold
prices edged up on Friday to a one-week high as the dollar weakened on receding
fears of a full-blown Sino-U.S. trade war, keeping the yellow metal on track
for its first weekly gain in four. "Higher gold prices are due to the fact
that China-U.S. trade tensions have somewhat dissipated," OCBC analyst
Barnabas Gan said. "Right now we have to tread very carefully on gold as
any uptick in trade tension is bearish. U.S. tariffs should actually improve
trade balance in the U.S and should give more strength to the dollar and push
gold prices down." New U.S. and Chinese tariffs on each other's goods were
set at lower rates this week than previously expected, raising hopes that
hostilities between the world's two largest economies may be easing.
ENERGY:-
Oil
prices rose on Friday ahead of a meeting of OPEC and other large crude exporters
that will focus on production increases as U.S. sanctions restrict Iranian
exports. OPEC and its allies are scheduled to gather in Algeria on Sunday to
discuss how to allocate higher supply to offset the shortage of Iranian
supplies. Brent is close to four-year highs, trading just below $80 a barrel,
as investors bet that the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries
will be unable to compensate fully for the loss of oil from Iran, OPEC's
third-biggest producer. But the meeting on Sunday is unlikely to be able to
change production policy. Such a move would require OPEC to hold what it calls
an "extraordinary meeting", which is not on the agenda. President
Donald Trump increased pressure on OPEC on Thursday, calling on the organisation
to "get prices down now!"
