Asian Metals Market Update: January-22-2018

By Chintan Karnani, Insignia Consultants / January 22, 2018 / news.goldseek.com / Article Link

Every week there is some news to for traders and investors to think about. Long term and medium term investors need not scrutinize news in a big way. Short term investors and day traders have to look at each and every news item as it is difficult to predict a reaction after any news. One should have key technical support before hand with him. One should also look for breakout price points and then trade. Low risk day traders should trade for less profit.

It has been a muted reaction to the US government shut down. Gold should have risen and the US dollar nosedived due to the US government shutdown. Since there is not a major stoppage in the functioning of the US government, markets are waiting for more news. The Bank of japan meeting and the European central bank meeting this week will affect currency markets and bond markets. The Euro has reached fair valuation against the US dollar. There has been a small reduction in net long positions of the euro against the US dollar. The next two weeks are very crucial for euro/usd. Be prepared for five hundred to six hundred pips one way moves (in euro/usd) anytime in the next week. Big moves in currency markets will affect gold and silver also.

Industrial metals price will be dependent on Chinese demand and expected Chinese demand from March onwards (after the Chinese New Year vacations are over). Zinc and lead and aluminum are all firm. Nickel is still undervalued. There is expectation that global Iron Ore prices can see a short term correction. Zinc if it rises this week can rise five percent more by next week.
