Asian Metals Market Update for 15th September 2023

The technical correction is over in gold, silver and copper. There will be sharp rallies as long as yesterday's low holds. I will prefer a buy on dips strategy as long spot gold trades over $1890-$1895 zone and spot silver trades over $21.90-$22.20 zone till next week

Traders are one again betting of an interest rate pause next week by the Federal Reserve. Volatility will be there on changes to interest rate outlook.

Interest rate hikes is near an end by the European central bank (after the ten consecutive hike yesterday). ECB will prefer growth over inflation for the rest of the year.

Impact of current crude oil price on inflation will be felt only in the first quarter of next year. If recession/slowdown comes first before renewed bout of inflation then most central banks will not raise interest rates. World will see a much longer interest rate pause period. I will prefer to invest by buying US dollar Index naked put options on or from second quarter of next year with varying strike price.

The general view is that the crude oil price induced subsequent inflation will not have any impact on interest rate hike decisions by most central banks. Global financial markets are nearing an interest rate pause period with passing of each month.

Use a buy on crash strategy in gold and silver and natural gas for Monday and next week. Look for signs of weekend profit taking in crude oil. There will be a technical breakout if copper and zinc rise today.
