Natural gas prices recovered on Wednesday, as forecasts shifted slightly warmer, and traders anticipated higher demand for air conditioning - HDFC Securities
GLOBAL MARKET ROUND UP
* A pullback in the Treasury yield and mixed US macro data led to an uptick in gold. Traders weighed the latest economic data, which increased the possibility of a Fed pivot this year, while waiting for key US job readings that may firm up expectations for interest-rate cuts later this year.
* A Wednesday report showed the US services sector expanded by the most in nine months, powered by the largest monthly gain in a measure of business activity since 2021. Earlier in the day, a private payrolls reading highlighted that hiring at US companies grew at the slowest pace since the start of the year
* Crude oil rebounded from a four-month low. Short coverage at the support level primarily drives a two-day recovery. The price decline had pushed both benchmarks into oversold territory on the 14-day relative strength index.
* Natural gas prices recovered on Wednesday, as forecasts shifted slightly warmer, and traders anticipated higher demand for air conditioning.
* Copper and other base metals traded in the lower-end range amid mixed global signals. Demand concerns and increased inventories in China weighed down on industrial metals, while hopes of more monetary policy easing from western countries in the pipeline supported prices at a lower level.
