News Highlights
Gold hits more than 18-month low as dollar gains on Turkey troubles.
Gold fell to a more than 18-month low on Wednesday as the dollar climbed towards its highest in over a
year on concerns about global market contagion triggered by recent declines in the Turkish lira. Further
gold liquidation from emerging markets to strengthen local currencies also pressured bullion, several
traders said. The advancing dollar and worries of continued oversupply also pushed platinum and
palladium to their lowest since October 2008 and July 2017 respectively. Bullion has declined about 9
percent this year, pressured by rising U.S. interest rates, a soaring dollar and failure to capitalize on its
traditional role as a hedge against global uncertainties. investors have opted for U.S. Treasuries, seen as
the ultimate safe haven, which meant they had to buy dollars, while bearish sentiment on gold led to
liquidations in exchange-traded funds (ETFs) and a record level of short positions.
Copper Tumbles into a Bear Market.
Copper plunged into a bear market as concerns mount that Turkey’s financial crisis and the U.S.-China
trade spat will stymie global economic growth. The red metal for delivery in three months fell 4 percent to
settle at $5,801 a metric ton at 5:52 p.m. Wednesday on the London Metal Exchange. That’s a more-than
20 percent drop from its high of $7,332 a ton in June, meeting the common definition of a bear market.
Copper has posted four straight daily losses, dropping to the lowest in more than a year. Losses on
Wednesday were triggered by a broad retreat in China as the Yuan weakened and recent data showed the
economy hit a rough patch.
We expect nickel prices to continue their weak and range bound pattern today.
LME nickel slumped over 4%, breaking through $13,000/mt to a low of $12,770/mt, and closed at $12,880

before it slightly rebounded and closed at 107,910 yuan/mt overnight. We expect nickel prices to continue
their weak and range bound pattern today. LME nickel is likely to hover around $12,800/mt and the SHFE
1811 contract at 106,500-108,000 yuan/mt. Spot prices are seen at 107,000-109,000 yuan/mt.
