Natural gas surged about 4% on Monday due to hotter weather forecasts, which increased the demand outlook - HDFC Securities
GLOBAL MARKET ROUND UP
Gold was steady in Asian trading hours on Tuesday after closing slightly higher in the previous session on a weaker US dollar. The focus for traders is turning to economic data due at the end of this week, including US GDP and the Federal Reserve’s preferred gauge of consumer inflation, which should offer clues on when the central bank will pivot to monetary easing.
Crude oil prices rose on Monday, with a softer dollar and rising geopolitical tensions from Yemen to Russia providing support. Houthi militants have ramped up their attacks on ships off Yemen recently, while Russia has blamed the US for a missile strike on occupied Crimea and warned of “consequences.”
Natural gas surged about 4% on Monday due to hotter weather forecasts, which increased the demand outlook.
Amidst mixed cues, base metals consolidated in range. Following weak fiscal revenue data, investors are considering potential stimulus measures in China, which could provide support for base metals. However, higher inventory levels and weak spot demand limit these gains.
China’s data released Monday showed its fiscal revenue shrank at the fastest pace in more than a year, fueling expectations that Beijing could make a rare mid-year budget revision to aid economic recovery.
