Nine "O" Clock Currency and Commodity Report : 8th August 2018


Nine “O” Clock Currency Commodity Report
Crude oil fell and is trading below the 100 day moving average. Rest of the metals are steady. Cable fell against the US dollar on hard Brexit fears. US dollar is weaker against the euro and Japanese yen. Bill Gates has opposed Trump trade tariffs saying that it will be ‘scary” for the global economy. Crude oil is fundamentally bearish. Asian demand for crude oil is expected to fall. I am not very bullish on crude oil despite all the scare of supply side pressures. US producer price index numbers tomorrow will tell us whether two interest rate hikes will be there or not. A fall in PPI numbers (if any) can result in a US dollar sell off. If crude oil falls tomorrow in Asian session, then all the Asian currencies will gain against the US dollar.
GOOD NIGHT
