Gold prices traded in range lack of clarity over where a brewing trade spat between the United States and Europe. U.S. President Donald Trump and European Commission President Jean-Claude Juncker agreed to work towards eliminating trade barriers. The European Central Bank is all but certain to keep policy on hold, arguing that the risks from an amplifying global trade conflict don't warrant a deviation from its plan to gently exit its easy-money policy of the last few years. The Bank of Japan will consider at next week's rate review changing the composition of exchange-traded funds (ETF) it buys as part of is massive stimulus programme, the Nikkei newspaper reported. Rising investor interest in gold can be seen in the holdings of the largest gold-backed, exchange- traded fund, New York’s SPDR Gold Trust, which are up more than 1 percent to 25.803 million ounces since July 18. SPDR holdings have been trending down since April 30, partly due to higher U.S. interest rates, raising the cost of holding gold, which earns no income, interest or dividends and costs money to store and insure. China's gold output dropped by 7.9 percent in the first half of this year to 190.28 tonnes due to an environmental crackdown on illegal mining, Xinhua News Agency reported on Wednesday, citing figures from the China Gold Association.

MCX Copper Aug 2018 Copper gained as threats of a strike at the Escondida mine in Chile provided support to prices. Copper on MCX settled up 0.27% at 430.10 gained on fresh buying as LME Copper held at two-week highs on Wednesday after jumping nearly 3 percent the previous session, as the market awaited a resolution to wage talks at the world’s largest miner of the industrial metal. BHP’s Escondida mine in Chile said on Tuesday it had made a final offer to the union representing its rank-and-file workers that includes a beefed up contract signing bonus and a 1.5 percent increase in wages. There was no immediate response from the union, which had asked for a 5 percent pay rise. LME copper ended 0.1 percent lower at $6,290 per tonne, after Tuesday’s surge that was the biggest since January. Failure to reach a labour deal at Escondida last year led to a 44-day strike that jolted the global copper market. The possibility of another strike there pushed benchmark copper prices in London to a near 4-1/2 year high of $7,348 a tonne on June 7, before fears that a U.S.-China trade war could crimp demand pushed the price below $6,000 tonne last week. LME copper stood above $6,300/mt and hit a high of $6,331/mt due to a weakened US dollar and possible strike at the world’s largest copper mine Escondida in Chile. Now day ahead key things to watch today will be the European central bank's rate decision for July, the US durable goods orders and wholesale inventories last month, as well as its weekly jobless claims.

Zinc on MCX settled down -0.72% at 179.80 dropped on long liquidation tracking weakness from LME zinc which failed to stand firm above $2,600/mt with pressure from concerns over the trade spats between the US and EU. It dipped to a low of $2,573/mt but received support from the five-day moving average. While Maintenance across smelters continued to weigh on supplies. There were also no large inflows of imported materials this week while downstream consumption fell to the lowest level in a seasonal lull. Market participants should monitor developments of the negotiation between smelters and miners on treatment charges (TCs). Separately, brisk trades following the rebound in zinc prices eased after the Shanghai Futures Exchange raised transaction fees for closing out positions opened on the same day, for the zinc September contract. Fees grew from 3 yuan/lot to 15 yuan/lot, effective from the night trading session of July 23. Last night the US dollar dipped to around 94, and closed at 94.19. Base metals were under pressure from ongoing worries over a trade war even though the EU and US declared a ceasefire.

MCX Nickel Jul 2018 Nickel recovered from lows amid low inventories across LME and domestic warehouses, tight supply of nickel pig iron.

It closed at $13,715/mt with LME inventory falling 318 mt to 260,400 mt. We see upward room in the nickel prices, given low inventories across LME and domestic warehouses, tight supply of nickel pig iron, and more downstream demand for stainless steel. China is still the driver of industrial metal prices, and signs of a loss of growth momentum in the world’s single largest metals user formed the backdrop for the current blood-bath. China bears can take their pick of factors, from a crackdown on the shadow finance sector, slowing property investment or sliding manufacturing indices. These concerns have been around for many months. As far back as January Goldman Sachs, telling investors not to worry about the Chinese property market. Trade tensions between the United States and China have simply served to stoke further such pre- existing fears. Trade tensions between the United States and everyone else raise the risk of a global hit on manufacturing growth, the engine on which industrial metals run.

NEWS YOU CAN USE China's government plans to adopt both fiscal and financial measures to underpin domestic demand as worsening trade relations with its major trading partner, the US, limited the impetus to growth from exports. The State Council meeting, chaired by Premier Li Keqiang, decided to take more "proactive" fiscal steps to help the economy grow in a reasonable pace amid external uncertainties, but to avoid a strong stimulus. Proactive fiscal measures will cover deeper tax cuts, additional deductions to companies on research and development expenditure and issuing special bonds to local government to fund infrastructure projects. The policy is expected to cost CNY 65 billion this year. Li urged solid implementation of lending to small and micro businesses. The council also vowed to maintain appropriate credit growth under prudent monetary policy. Li agreed to improve the transmission mechanism of monetary policy. The announcement came after the central bank injected a record CNY 502 billion into the banking system via medium-term lending facility. Recently, the People's Bank of China stepped up liquidity injection measures and lowered reserve requirement ratios for three times this year. In the second quarter, China's economic growth slowed to 6.7 percent from 6.8 percent a quarter ago. This was the slowest since the third quarter of 2016. #REF! With the revival of monsoon in the central and nothern India, Kharif sowing has picked up pace, compared to the previous weeks. But this is still about 10 per cent lower than last year.
