GLOBAL MARKET ROUND UP
Weak economic data in China weighed on sentiment across the commodity complex.A stronger USD also reduced investor appetite.
Gold traded near a record high on growing expectations of an imminent Fed rate cut. Chair Powell said that second-quarter data has given policymakers greater confidence that inflation is heading down to the central bank’s 2% goal. The market is now pricing in two 25bp cuts in 2024. While political uncertainty has significantly risen following the attack, it still appears to be underpriced by the market.
Copper led the base metals lower on signs of further softness in demand. China’s economy grew by only 4.7% y/y in Q2 2024, the slowest pace in more than five quarters.
Softness in aluminium prices was aided by stronger output in China. Total production climbed to a record high of 3.67mt on elevated refining margins in June. Aluminium stocks on the Shanghai Futures Exchange also rose, another sign of an oversupplied market.
The weak economic data in China also weighed on sentiment in the crude oil market. This comes after data last week showed softness in oil imports.
Global gas prices edged lower on the broader risk-off tone across the energy complex, but supply disruptions remain in focus.
