Weekly Report : Copper declined with other commodities after China`s debt swap plan disappointed investors - HDFC Securities
Global Market Round Up
* Gold fell at the end of a volatile week’s trading as investors assessed the path ahead for the US rate cut and the implications of Donald Trump’s election victory. Trump's spectacular victory in the US election pushed dollars higher, also putting pressure on gold prices. Trump's planned measures, such as tariffs and harsher immigration controls, are inflationary. This has reduced expectations for significant interest rate cuts by the Federal Reserve in the US. Spot gold experienced a decline of nearly 2.0%, marking its biggest weekly decline since May.
* Crude oil ended with a modest gain of 1.28% as investors assessed the impact of the Federal Reserve rate cut and the upcoming Donald Trump administration on crude supplies. Investors fear that the incoming Trump administration may tighten sanctions on Iran and Venezuela, potentially disrupting the oil supply on the market.
* Natural gas retreated from the weekly high due to higher weekly storage data and warmer weather forecasts, which reduced the demand outlook for natural gas. However, the price managed to close with a minor gain, thanks to a higher gain in the early part of the week.
* Copper declined with other commodities after China’s debt swap plan disappointed investors. The world’s largest importer of the metal announced a 10 trillion-yuan program to refinance local government debt that will be provided through 2028 but stopped short of unleashing new stimulus. Investors now look for Chinese retail sales and industrial production data due later this week to assess the economy's health.
