MCX MORNING UPDATES 09TH OCT 2018


BULLION:-

Gold fell to its lowest level in a week on Monday as investors sought safety in the U.S. dollar on concerns about a selloff in global stocks worsened by worries over economic growth in China. "The strong U.S. dollar and expectations of more interest rate hikes are pushing gold down and scaring gold investors. Even the Italian risk and a weakness in equities is not pushing investors to buy gold," said Carlo Alberto De Casa, chief analyst at Active Trades. Despite the losses, gold has held in a $34 range for the last 1-1/2 months, which some analysts say suggests resilience, worries over the damage to emerging market economies from higher U.S. interest rates has spurred safe-haven bidding.

METALS:-

London copper rebounded to a high of $6,224.5/mt from a low of $6,126/mt on Monday. This helped it stand firmly above the 20-day moving average. The SHFE 1811 contract reversed some gains overnight after hitting a high of 50,320 yuan/mt, which was near the five-day moving average. China’s actions, including a steep cut in the amount of cash that banks must hold as reserves, quickening special bond issuance for shanty-town redevelopment, an increase in export tax rebates from November 1, supported copper prices in the domestic market. Stocks at home and abroad continued their declines. We expect LME copper to trade at $6,170-6,230/mt with the SHFE 1811 contract at 50,000-50,500 yuan/mt. Spot premiums are seen at 40-80 yuan/mt.

ENERGY:-

Oil prices rose on Tuesday as more evidence emerged that crude exports from Iran, OPEC's third-largest producer, are declining in the run-up to the re-imposition of U.S. sanctions and as a hurricane moved across the Gulf of Mexico. Iran's crude exports fell further in the first week of October, according to tanker data and an industry source, as buyers are seeking alternatives ahead of the start of the U.S. sanctions on Nov. 4 and creating a challenge to other OPEC oil producers as they seek to cover the shortfall. The Islamic Republic exported 1.1 million barrels per day (bpd) of crude in that seven-day period, Definitive Eikon data showed. An industry source who also tracks exports said October shipments were so far below 1 million bpd.
