Asian Metals Market Update for 9th January 2024

The technical correction was over. The next big wave of sell-off will be there only if the price trades below the recent low in gold, silver and copper. Crude oil will very volatile.

There is readjustment on the interest rate cut factors. Bet are placed between three interest rates cuts (by the Federal Reserve) to four interest rates cuts. (i) Some traders are betting on interest rate cuts in every Federal Reserve meeting from March onwards. (ii) Some are less. This mini-Tug-O-War on interest rate cuts will increase short-term volatility. (till 31^st January). Day traders' paradise. Caution for short-term investors.

China may cut banks reserve ratio to further boost its economy. Any such news and speculation regarding indirect economic stimulus in China will be base metals positive. I am against short-selling base metals. I am against physical buying in UN Fix Mode in copper and zinc. Aluminum will be very volatile.

Chinese markets will be closed in the first two weeks of February. Indian traders exporting and importing from China are expecting a full stop on/from China anytime after 27^th January. Physical premiums of copper and zinc should rise as January progresses.

Spot Gold (current market price $2035.00)

• Daily support: $2007.50, $2016.30 and $2024.00
• Daily resistance: $2045.30 and $2061.60
• Spot gold has to trade over $2024.00 to be in an intraday bullish zone and target $2061.00 and $2077.50 and more.
• Mild sell off will be there if spot gold falls below $2025.00.
• Crash or sell off will be there if spot gold does not break $2061.00 by Thursday close.
• Spot gold should break the $2000-$2100 trading range and form a new range anytime in the next seven days. Buyers and sellers both need to be careful. However, use any fall of more than $80.00 (in the next seven days) to go long with a stop loss below $1940.00 for early February.
