MCX Gold Dec 2018
Gold slipped as the U.S. dollar regained some ground on the back of strong American jobs data.
Gold on MCX settled down -0.45% at 31750 as the U.S. dollar regained
some ground on the back of strong American jobs data. The U.S. Federal
Reserve has raised interest rates three times this year and is widely
expected to raise rates again in December. Attention is now turning to
the U.S. congressional elections on Nov. 6, which will determine whether
the Republican or Democratic party controls Congress, with some
predicting increased market volatility on the outcome. Holdings in SPDR
Gold Trust, the world’s largest gold-backed exchange-traded fund, rose to
their highest since late August on Thursday. Physical gold demand in
India was lacklustre, with dealers offering discounts for the metal ahead
of a traditionally busy festival week for the first time in at least three
years, as high prices kept consumers away. Prices in India, held near
33,000 Indian rupees per 10 grams, the highest since September 2013,
ahead of the Dhanteras and Diwali festivals, when buying gold is
considered auspicious. Dealers in India were offering a discount of up to
$7 an ounce over official domestic prices this week, unchanged from last
week and the highest since mid-June. In top consumer China, premiums
were slightly higher at $4-$7 per ounce versus $4-$6 last week, while
premiums in Hong Kong were seen at 70 cents-$1.50 as against 70 cents-
$1.20 earlier. Hedge funds and money managers raised their net short
positions in Comex gold and silver contracts in the week to Oct. 30, the
U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission said. Technically now Gold
is getting support at 31621 and below same could see a test of 31493
level, And resistance is now likely to be seen at 31856, a move above
could see prices testing 31963.

Silver dropped after a stronger-than-expected October jobs report, prompting prices for the precious metal to end the week with loss.
Silver on MCX settled down -0.39% at 38620 after a stronger-than-
expected October jobs report, prompting prices for the precious metal to
end the week with loss. US data showed the unemployment rate steadied
at 3.7% as expected, while average earnings rose 0.2% as expected,
slowing down from 0.3% in September. The economy created 250
thousand new jobs last month, up from 118K in September and beating
estimates of 194K, as the trade deficit widened to $54 billion from $53.3B
in August. New reports indicated President Donald Trump has asked
officials to draft a potential trade agreement with China, with hopes to
achieve such a deal next month during the G20 meetings in Buenos Aires.
Trump also tweeted yesterday: "Just had a long and very good
conversation with President Xi Jinping of China. We talked about many
subjects, with a heavy emphasis on Trade. Those discussions are moving
along nicely with meetings being scheduled at the G-20 in Argentina. Also
had good discussion on North Korea!" Hedge funds and money managers
raised their net short positions in Comex silver contracts in the week to
Oct. 30, the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission said. Hedge
funds and money managers raised their net short position in silver by
3,368 contracts to 24,577 contracts. Fed Funds Futures are pricing in a
70.8% chance of a rate hike this December, this is down from about 80%
certainty back in mid-October. Technically market is under long
liquidation as market has witnessed drop in open interest by -1.37% to

MCX Crudeoil Nov 2018
Crude oil dropped after a report that Washington has granted several countries waivers on sanctions on Tehran, allowing them to continue to import Iranian crude.
Crudeoil on MCX settled down -1.14% at 4609 after a report that
Washington has granted several countries waivers on sanctions on
Tehran, allowing them to continue to import Iranian crude. But sentiment
turned negative after a report that several governments received waivers
that would allow them to import some Iranian crude once U.S. sanctions
are imposed next week. The U.S. government has agreed to let eight
countries, including close allies South Korea and Japan, as well as India,
keep buying Iranian oil after it reimposes the sanctions. Iran's crude oil
exports to fall to 1.15 million bpd by the end of the year, down from
around 2.5 million bpd in mid-2018. Beyond Iran sanctions, oil output has
been rising significantly in the past two months. Russian Energy Ministry
data showed the country pumped 11.41 million barrels per day (bpd) of
crude oil in October, a 30-year high. The Organization of the Petroleum
Exporting Countries boosted oil production in October to 33.31 million
bpd, up 390,000 bpd and the highest by OPEC since 2016. OPEC/O and in
the United States, crude production is now well over 11 million bpd,
putting the U.S. in a neck and neck race with Russia for the title of top
producer. By the end of next year, however, Goldman expects Brent to
fall to $65 a barrel, largely due to "the unleashing of Permian (U.S. shale)
supply growth once new pipelines come online". Technically market is
under fresh selling as market has witnessed gain in open interest by
3.01% to settled at 14901 while prices down -53 rupees, now Crudeoil is
getting support at 4557 and below same could see a test of 4505 level,

MCX Copper Nov 2018
Copper prices rose after the presidents of the United States and China both expressed optimism about resolving a trade row between the two countries.
Copper prices rose after the presidents of the United States and China
both expressed optimism about resolving a trade row between the two
countries. Copper, considered an economic bellwether, has been weighed
down this year by fears the U.S.-China trade row will curb demand for
industrial metals. U.S. President Donald Trump wants to reach an
agreement with Chinese President Xi Jinping at the Group of 20 nations
summit in Argentina later this month. Chinese President Xi Jinping on
Thursday promised support for struggling private firms, pledging more tax
cuts and financial aid, underscoring government resolve to support the
private sector as growth slows. Inventories of copper in LME-approved
warehouses, at 143,125 tonnes, are down more than 60 percent since
the 2018 peak near 390,000 tonnes. The problem is compounded by
cancelled warrants at nearly 54 percent of total stocks and a large holding
of copper warrants between 50 and 79 percent. China’s Arrivals of scrap
copper in September plunged 38.9 percent to 200,000 tonnes, curbed by
the hefty tariffs on imports from the United States. The global world
refined copper market showed a 47,000 tonnes deficit in July, compared
with a 38,000 tonnes deficit in June, the ICSG said. For the first 7 months
of the year, the market was in a 157,000 tonnes deficit compared with a
188,000 tonnes deficit in the same period a year earlier, the ICSG said.
Copper on MCX settled up 2.38% at 451.25, technically market is under
short covering as market has witnessed drop in open interest by -5.14%
to settled at 13258 while prices up 10.5 rupees, now Copper is getting
support at 441.5 and below same could see a test of 431.7 level, And
resistance is now likely to be seen at 456.9, a move above could see
prices testing 462.5.

MCX Zinc Nov 2018
Zinc settled flat paring gains on profit booking after prices rose helped by concerns over supply shortages while an improving technical picture provided encouragement for buyers.
Zinc settled flat paring gains on profit booking after prices rose helped by
concerns over supply shortages while an improving technical picture
provided encouragement for buyers. On-warrant zinc stocks in LME-
registered warehouses, have fallen below 100,000 tonnes from almost
240,000 tonnes in August and are close to 10-year lows. The premium for
cash zinc over the three-month LME contract, at $53, remains close to
Monday's $63 one-year high, signalling tight nearby supply. The global
zinc market had a deficit of 292,000 tonnes in the first eight months of
the year, data from the International Lead and Zinc Study Group (ILZSG)
showed. In August the deficit was 76,200 tonnes. Chinese zinc production
in September was down 10.1 percent year-on-year at 456,000 tonnes
amid a crackdown on polluting industry. China accounts for nearly half of
global refined zinc production of about 13.5 million tonnes. China more
than quadrupled the value of fixed-asset investment projects approved in
the third quarter from the April-June period, as part of efforts to prop up
the slowing economy. Treatment charges (TCs) for spot zinc
concentrates continued to rise over the past week after an open arbitrage
into China and agreement on higher prices led to a flurry of deals earlier
in the month. The zinc market is still in transition from being more tightly
supplied than at any other time for a decade, to having a more balanced
future. Technically market is under fresh selling as market has witnessed
gain in open interest by 13.47% to settled at 3495, now Zinc is getting
support at 186.7 and below same could see a test of 184.8 level, And

MCX Nickel Nov 2018
Nickel prices gained after the Chinese authorities pledged preemptive and prompt actions on the economy.
Nickel on MCX settled up 0.39% at 870.4 after the Chinese authorities
pledged preemptive and prompt actions on the economy. Base metals
were stronger across the board as investors looked ahead to the potential
for new stimulus measures in China boosting demand. China’s politburo
said the nation needs timely steps to counter downward pressure on the
economy. Moreover, reports that talks between United States President
Donald Trump and China’s Xi Jinping have been progressing well signal
that it is still possible for the US-China trade relationship to improve.
Japanese trading house Sumitomo Corp lowered its forecast for nickel
output at its Ambatovy project in Madagascar to slightly above 40,000
tonnes in the year to March 31, below its projection in May of 48,000
tonnes. Due to lower production amid bad weather and a slow ramp-up
after a regular maintenance, Sumitomo now expects a loss of 13.6 billion
yen ($120.47 million) from the Ambatovy project in the current year,
against its earlier estimate of a 9.8 billion yen loss. Nickel inventories in
the Shanghai bonded areas shrank 3,500 mt, or 10% from last Friday to
stand at 31,500 mt as of November 2, data showed. With an open import
arbitrage window from last week, importers continued to move cargoes
from bonded warehouses to the domestic spot market. Arbitrage
opportunities also prompted importers to move forward cargoes directly
to the market. This limited materials that entered into bonded
warehouses. Technically market is under short covering as market has
witnessed drop in open interest by -0.29% to settled at 14409 while
prices up 3.4 rupees, now Nickel is getting support at 862.2 and below
same could see a test of 854 level, And resistance is now likely to be seen

NCDEX Jeera Dec 2018
Jeera prices gained on crop concern due to water shortage in producing centres of Gujarat and Rajasthan.
Jeera on NCDEX settled up 1.3% at 21110 on crop concern due to water
shortage in producing centres of Gujarat and Rajasthan. Sowing was
expected to be higher due to prevailing high prices but lower rains in
producing areas of both the states may impact the yield and overall
output. The prevailing water crisis may curtail jeera sowing by about 25%
from last year's area of 780,000 hectares. India's jeera exports have
reached nearly to 130,000 tons until September during the current fiscal.
However, jeera exports in 2018/19 (Apr-Aug) has crossed 1 lakh tonnes,
up 54.8% compared to exports last year for same period as per data
released by Commerce Ministry. Seasonally, the exports of Jeera dip
during the 4th quarter of the calendar year. However, those regions
which have good irrigation facilities will have good output. According to
the initial trade estimate, there may not be any increase in the sowing
area of jeera because of dry weather. However, if the producing states
receive good rains in November, then the sowing area could see an
increase. The overseas demand for Indian jeera is expected to increase
as the supply from other origins like Turkey and Syria are limited and of
poor quality. Although Indian jeera is priced higher in the global market,
it is drawing more buyers because of superior quality. Technically market
is under fresh buying as market has witnessed gain in open interest by
16.39% to settled at 3942 while prices up 270 rupees, now Jeera is
getting support at 20818 and below same could see a test of 20527 level,

NCDEX Turmeric Dec 2018
Turmeric prices dropped on profit booking and on expectations of better crop this season.
Turmeric on NCDEX settled down -1.19% at 6650 on profit booking and
on expectations of better crop this season. Turmeric sowing in all the
major producing states is higher than last year and weather also
remained favourable. According to the Department of Horticulture and
Plantation Crops of Tamil Nadu, acreage of turmeric in Erode may jump
nearly 80% on year to 5,300 hectare in 2018-19 (Jul-Jun) because of
very good rainfall this year and availability of other water sources. In
Telangana, turmeric acreage rose to 47,790 hectare compared to 44,956
hectare a year ago, state government data showed. In Andhra Pradesh
farmers planted turmeric over an area 18,000 hectares up from 14,000
hectares a year ago. During the September, arrivals of turmeric have
been higher at 12,478 t (Vs 10,978 t) compared last year, as per data. As

MCX Menthaoil Nov 2018
Mentha oil dropped as spot markets are witnessing low demand amid adequate supply which weighed on prices.
Menthaoil on MCX settled down -2.87% at 1767.9 as spot markets are
witnessing low demand amid adequate supply which weighed on prices.
Low demand outlook in mentha oil in domestic as well as global market
due to expectation of recovery in Indian Rupee against the U.S dollar.
Bumper crop harvest has been discounted in the market and market is
moving upwards on rising demand from end users. Arrivals in Sambhal
stood at 400 drums compared to 350 drum a day ago while in Barabanki
supplies rose to 500 drums from 450 drums a day earlier. According to
preliminary estimates, mentha oil production in 2018-19 would be 40,000-
45,000 ton against last year's production of 35,000 tons. There could be
chances of crop damage to certain extend due to unfavourable weather
condition. Mandi Department, which assumes Mentha as an agricultural
product and receives the mandatory duty of one and a half percent, the
GST of the same commerce tax department, Mentha crop, is not
considered as agricultural product and 15 percent GST is charged. Due to
this double tax, the price of mentha product increases, whereas synthetic
mentha is much cheaper, so many companies making mentha products
have started using synthetic mentha. Technically market is under long
liquidation as market has witnessed drop in open interest by -7.06% to
settled at 1409 while prices down -52.3 rupees, now Menthaoil is getting

China’s manufacturing sector barely expanded in October and missed expectations, as both domestic and external demand ebbed, in a sign of deepening cracks in the
economy from an intensifying trade war with the United States. The official Purchasing Managers’ Index (PMI), released on Wednesday, fell to 50.2 in October, the lowest
since July 2016 and down from 50.8 in September. It was a touch above the 50-point mark that separates growth from contraction for a 27th straight month. The latest
reading suggests a further slowing in the world’s second-biggest economy and could prompt more policy support from Beijing on top of a raft of recent initiatives. A
production sub-index fell to 52 in October from 53.0 in September, while a new orders sub-index declined to 50.8 from 52.0. New export orders, an indicator of future
activity, contracted for a fifth straight month and at the fastest pace in at least a year. The sub-index fell to 46.9 from 48.0 in September. China’s exports unexpectedly
kicked into higher gear in September, largely as firms front-loaded shipments to dodge stiffer U.S. duties, though analysts see pressure building in coming months. The
continued slump in export orders may be bearing that scenario out. October is the first full month after the latest U.S. tariffs went into effect. Washington and Beijing
slapped additional tariffs on each other’s goods on Sept. 24, and U.S. President Donald Trump has threatened to hit China with more duties.
Germany’s jobless total fell in October and employment hit a record high in September, data showed, underlining the strength of a labor market that is supporting a
consumer-led upswing in Europe’s largest economy. The Federal Labour Office said the seasonally adjusted jobless total fell by 11,000 to 2.292 million, slightly below the
predicted drop of 12,000. The unemployment rate remained unchanged at 5.1 percent, the lowest since German reunification in 1990. In a politically risky push to fill a
record number of job vacancies and stabilize the public pension system, Chancellor Angela Merkel’s coalition parties earlier this month agreed on a new immigration law to
attract more skilled workers from countries outside the European Union. In a further positive sign, seasonally adjusted employment as measured by the International
Labour Organisation climbed by 557,000 on the year to a record of 45.0 million in September, separate Federal Statistics Office data showed. Household spending has
become an important growth driver in Germany as record-high employment, increased job security, above-inflation pay hikes and low borrowing costs all help open
shoppers’ wallets. A survey last week showed that German shoppers look keen to spend in November, but their expectations for the economy and their own personal
income have slipped on worries about international trade conflicts and Brexit.
India's vegetable oil imports fell 2% on year to 1.49 mln tn in September, according to data from Solvent Extractors' Association of India. During Nov-Sep, the country
imported 13.8 mln tn of vegetable oil compared with 14.3 mln tn a year ago. Despite rupee depreciation, import of vegetable oil in Aug-Sep was higher compared to
previous months due to lower stocks of edible oil in the pipeline and as fall in palm oil prices encouraged purchases, the association said. During Nov-Sep, palm oil
imports fell to 7.9 mln tn from 8.5 mln tn a year ago, while import of soft oils were largely unchanged at 5.4 mln tn. Meanwhile, as of Oct 1, India had 923,000 tn of
edible oil lying at ports, with another 1.63 mln tn in the pipeline. India's total demand for edible oils during 2017-18 (Nov-Oct) is estimated at 23 mln tn. On a monthly
basis, the country requires 1.9 mln tn of edible oil. The country has over 2.55 mln tn edible oil in stocks, enough to meet demand for 40 days, the association said.
