2. MAJOR EVENTS
MCX Gold is trading flat as the expiry of the near month June series is capping
anymajor gains in the counter. COMEX Gold remains under stress after the recent
drop under$1200 with traders eying the FOMC interest rate decision and feeble
sentiments inequities. Stocks extended a worn out momentum yesterday amid
worries about the timing ofthe first Federal Reserve rate. Asian equities are still
witnessing mixed to bearish movesand COMEX Gold is quoting at $1191 per ounce, up
0.20% on the day as a mild recovery fromthree week lows continued. The MCX Gold
futures for August are trading at Rs 27108 per 10grams, almost unchanged on the day.
However, modest gains have emerged in silver. MCXSilver futures are trading at Rs
38390 per kg, up 0.25% on the day. The Euro is quoting just off its one month low
against the US dollar. Data out yesterday showed that the Eurozone economic
sentiment index held steady at 103.8 in May,while it was forecast to fall to 103.5,
survey results from the European Commissionshowed. The April figure was revised up
from 103.7. The industrial confidence index camein at -3 versus -3.2 a month ago.
European Central Bank will not break rules to provideany short-term financing for
Greece, ECB Governing Council member Ewald Nowotny said onThursday.
Sound German economic data kept oil supported in afternoon. The counter has
elevated onfalling US crude inventories after the commodity tested its one month
low in last session.The US Energy Information Administration (EIA) released its weekly
petroleum status reportThursday, a day later than usual due to the Memorial Day
holiday. US commercial crudeinventories decreased by 2.8 million barrels last week,
maintaining a total US commercialcrude inventory of 479.4 million barrels. This data
supported the counter even as the USequities eased. The WTI Crude currently quotes
at $58.32 per barrel, up 0.1.10% on theday. MCX Crude oil futures are trading at Rs
3736 per barrel, up 1.85% on the day. MCX Natural gas futures are trading at Rs
173.40 per mmbtu, down 0.29% on the day. Crude is expected to find a decent
support after recent declines following the slow butsteady deterioration in US
commercial inventories. Falling gasoline inventories are alsoauguring positive for oil
prices. Heading into the summer peak driving season, totalgasoline inventories
decreased by 3.3 million barrels last week, according to the EIA, butremain near the
upper limit of the five-year average range.

Recent Pullback.
Copper Faces
Worst Monthly
Drop Since January
2015.
Copper prices declined yet again in International markets making it the worst monthly
performer since January 2015. However prices were keeping a cautious tone on the
back of expectations of Chinese stimulus measures. A weaker dollar offered some
support to metals as prospects for a Greece debt deal buoyed the Euro.
In Japan, among a slew of data industrial output rose 1.0% provisionally month-on-
month, better than the 0.8% gain seen and the first gain in three months. Household
spending however fell 5.5% month-on-month in April, while national core CPI gained
0.3% year-on-year, painting a mixed picture on spending and prices. The CPI data
comes as the Bank of Japan has reset efforts to boost inflation to sustained 2% from
around zero by 2016. Elsewhere, there were little developments in Brussels where
Greek officials continued to meet with representatives from the International
Monetary Fund, European Central Bank and European Commission in an effort to
reach an agreement on a bailout that could unlock critical aid the beleaguered nation
may require to stave off bankruptcy. MCX Copper was trading at Rs 390.5 per kg when
last checked. The prices tested a high of Rs 393.95 per kg and Rs 389.4 per kg.
