Asian Metals Market Update

COMEX FUTURES REPORT – Welcome back

It is now back to some serious trading. Traders will be once again looking forward to US employment numbers this week and then decide on March interest rate hike. The effect of interest rate hike by the Federal Reserve will be felt in the month of February and beyond. Every year something unexpected happens. I will be closely watching the developments in Eastern Europe, Middle east and North Africa and look for clues on how they will impact metals and energies market. Geopolitical risk has failed to impact metals and energy markets last year. One needs to keep a close watch on these regions.

 

The pace of interest rate hike by the Federal Reserve will be the key. (A) Gold and silver will see another big wave of crash if and only if there is any indication that US economy will continue to hire 190,000 and more nonfarm jobs every month. (B) Gold and silver will zoom if US economy hires 140,000 and below nonfarm jobs (C) The region between 140,000 and 190,000 jobs is a neutral zone.

 

The European Union (EU) is imposing migrants to its member nations. The message given by key EU members is clear, nations will loose their sovereignty as soon as they become member of EU. The democratically elected government in member EU nations have to be puppets of EU. It does not matter which political party leader (in any nation) rules. They have to serve EU their master or go. Greece is the best example. The European Union’s bully will only create a hollow and divided Europe. A divided Europe is good for global economy as well as gold and silver. Italy does not want trade sanctions on Russia as it affects their economy most. However Italy has to follow the dictates of the EU.

 

In January, just trade with the immediate term in mind. Do not think of the medium term to long term. There is no doubt that gold and silver will zoom in the long term. How in the immediate term, there will be very high volatility. Gold, silver, copper and crude oil need to trade over their one hundred day moving average (100 day MA) of $1108, $1477, $224.10 and $42.88 to start another big bull run. As long as gold, silver, copper and crude oil trade below 100 day MA, the over trend is bearish, but bottom fishers will be watching like a hawk.

 

I am of the belief that the Chinese economy will form a long term bottom this year. Industrial metals will also form a long term bottom this year. The rise of industrial metals will be similar to being a junk car being restarted. It will take time. More and more manufacturing jobs, globally are being replaced by robots. Increased use of robots will imply reduced globalization. Nations will just buy raw materials and manufacture in their nation. US will manufacture more and import less from China, Bangladesh or India. Industrial metals will zoom. China or South Africa will not sell its raw material to USA at throw away prices.

 

Lastly, developed nations are resorting to more and more protectionism and also behaving like closed economies. But they are asking the rest of the world for easy entry and exit for the large corporations. These developments is another reason for me to look for a bottom to invest for the long term.
