Metal’s Outlook
Bullion Outlook
* Spot gold is expected to trade in the band of $2300 and $2335 with a negative bias amid reduced safe haven demand. Easing geopolitical tension in the Middle East and increasing risk appetite could weigh on the bullions. But weakness in the US dollar and treasury yields could provide some support to the bullions to trim its earlier losses. For the day we expect prices to remain in a very tight range as most traders will eye for key US GDP number and PCE price index data to get more clarity on the Fed’s interest rate path.

Base Metal Outlook

Meanwhile, depleting stocks in LME and SHFE would restrict any major downside in the base metals

Increasing bets of further sanction on Iran would support the oil prices to stay above the $81 mark. Further, unexpected fall in US crude oil stocks in the latest API inventory data raised the hopes that demand is on the rise ahead of summer driving season.
