In the week gone by, global markets moved high on the Federal Reserve’s average- I inflation strategy, as well as a promising development in curbing the coronavirus pandemic. Actually, Fed Chair Jerome Powell unveiled a new approach to setting US monetary policy, letting inflation and employment run higher in a shift that will likely keep interest rates low for years to come. Moreover market got boosted on the statement by Jerome Powell that the Fed will remain accommodative. Fed chairman Jerome Powell's speech is part of the US central bank's annual Jackson Hole symposium. Oil prices were also volatile because a massive hurricane raced inland past the heart of the U.S. oil industry in Louisiana and Texas, with a storm surge weaker than predicted. Profits at China’s industrial firms grew 19.6 percent year-onyear to $85.58 billion, the statistics bureau said, another sign that the economy’s recovery from the coronavirus shock is firming. Meanwhile, market participants are closely monitoring news of medical advancements for the coronavirus, from Moderna Inc.’s vaccine trials to the Abbott test.
Back at home, market continued to remain upbeat on hopes that the US Federal Reserve's ‘average inflation’ strategy would boost flows to emerging markets equities amid other positive news. Meanwhile, RBI Governor Shaktikanta Das said the central bank has not exhausted its ammunition to deal with the pandemic-induced stress. The Centre has offered two borrowing options to states to make up for the shortfall in GST compensation cess fund, including a special window to directly raise finances from RBI. Meanwhile, 74 percent foreign direct investment (FDI) has been now allowed in the defence sector in India through the automatic route. The move may prove a major push for ‘Aatmanirbhar Bharat’ in defence manufacturing. Thereis an expectation that the government may look at introducing a second set of fiscal stimulus measures once the COVID-19 infections abate. Monsoon rains, which picked up pace in August, are likely to be heavy for the rest of the month, as per Met department, potentially benefiting summer crops such as rice, corn and cotton. So far, August has seen the highest FII inflows into Indian shares in 118 months, or since October 2010, underpinning the global and domestic liquidity-induced rally amid the coronavirus pandemic. Going forward, global cues, progress of monsoon, movement of rupee against the dollar, Brent crude oil price movement and investments by foreign portfolio investors (FPI) and domestic institutional investors (DII) will be closely watched.

Turmeric futures may not be able to sustain the gains that it saw in the previous week as the demand picture is not so much strong that it could further fuel the prices. The September contract may face resistance near 6400 levels and profit booking from higher levels towards may turn down the counter towards 6000. It is to be noted that the market has a healthy stock of yellow spice, while only spice manufacturers have been purchasing at the moment. The stockists are still on the sidelines. Though medium quality turmeric arrived for sale, buyers purchased good number of turmeric bags for their local demand and negligible upcountry orders. But they did not quote higher price. Medium sale was recorded in other markets, due to quality. The traders were cautious in buying as they are still waiting for more upcountry orders. At the Erode Turmeric Merchants Association sales yard, finger turmeric was sold at Rs.5,199-6,349 a quintal, root variety was sold at Rs.4,869-5,769 a quintal. Jeera futures (Sept) may witness consolidation in the range of 14100-14600 levels. Though Covid-19 is expected to play a part in overall demand for the spice, traders expect prices to remain firm till Diwali. India exports jeera mainly to the Middle East market and exports are expected to pick in the coming weeks. Along with exports and festival demand, the sowing that will take place from October onward, will also influence the trend of jeera prices. The bull run shall continue to stay in dhaniya futures (Sept) and in days to come it can test 7000-7100. At present, the arrivals are hovering on the lower side on the mandies, while most of the buyers are looking to purchase best quality supplies.
Bullion counter has been dented by stronger rebound in the dollar and a resurgence in U.S. business activity which led the prices to lowest in over a week and was route to its second straight weekly decline. Prices have endured a roller-coaster week amid weak positioning, delayed stimulus package agreement and a bounce in the U.S. dollar and real rates. But on flip side rising coronavirus cases has cast a shadow on hopes of quick economic recovery and has prompted central banks to reduce interest rates and loosen their monetary stance, helping gold prices climb 28% so far this year. We believe gold prices remain positioned to the upside, respecting the underlying longterm uptrend as concerns over the global economy remain over the coming months, supporting safe haven assets including gold. Meanwhile, U.S. Federal Reserve’s aggressive new strategy to lift employment and increased tolerance for higher inflation pushed U.S. bond yields higher, limiting gold’s advance. US Fed chief Jerome Powell outlined an approach to setting US monetary policy that pushed up US bond yields. Higher bond yields increase the opportunity cost of holding gold which does not yield any interest income. Signalling a more relaxed stance on inflation, Jerome Powell said that the Fed will seek inflation that averages 2% over time, a step that implies allowing for price gains to overshoot. This week, gold may trade in the range of 48700-54900 and Silver may trade in the range of 58200-72300. Whereas on COMEX gold may trade in the range of $1860-$2000 and Silver may trade in the range of $22.00- $29.80.
Soybean futures (Sept) will continue to trade on a bullish note & may test 4200-4300, taking support near 3900 levels. The news of the crop damage has acted as a catalyst to fuel the prices in the domestic market. The Soybean Processors Association of India (SOPA) anticipates a crop damage of 10-12% on account of heavy rains in Madhya Pradesh (MP). The damage is mostly caused by sudden, very heavy rains and variation in temperature, creating a congenial environment for large-scale attack by pests. The overall strength in oilseeds complex along with subdued arrivals in spot markets and firm demand from crushing plants may continue to facilitate the mustard futures (Sept) to maintain its uptrend. In days to come, it is expected to trade in the range of 5100-5400 levels. Soy oil (Sept) is expected to rise further towards 910-930, while CPO (Sept) has seen a breakout and this bullishness shall take the counter towards 780-790 taking positive cues from the international market. On CBOT, U.S soy oil is trading near 4 months high along with soybean near 3 month high owing to the estimates that China is set to buy a record amount of American soybeans this year as lower prices help the Asian nation boost purchases pledged under the phase-one trade deal. The total from the U.S. will probably reach about 40 million tons in 2020. That would be around 25% more than in 2017, the baseline year for the trade deal, and roughly 10% more than the record set in 2016, according to data from the U.S. Department of Agriculture. The U.S. and China reaffirmed their commitment to the phaseone accord in a biannual review last week, showing a willingness to cooperate on trade.
Crude Oil prices stuck in a range bound territory as traders remain relatively cautious over growing concerns on energy demand rebalancing as the COVID19 pandemic continued to disrupt the global economy negatively. Hurricane Laura hit Louisiana with winds of 150 miles per hour (240 km per hour), damaging buildings, knocking down trees and cutting power to more than 650,000 people in Louisiana and Texas, but refineries were spared from feared massive flooding. However with the U.S. Gulf hurricanes out of the way and preliminary assessment showing no damage to the upstream or downstream facilities, crude has surrendered most of the storm premium and could enter a holding pattern again. On Nymex week ahead, it is expected that Crude oil may post some correction where support is seen near $35.40 and resistance is seen near $46.00. For next week we may witness correction in crude oil where it may take support near 2720 and face resistance near 3380. U.S. natural gas futures jumped almost 14% to a nine-month high as output fell to its lowest since May due to shutdowns of offshore wells before Hurricane Laura crashed into the Gulf Coast near the Texas-Louisiana border, and expectations for a third straight day of record pipeline exports to Mexico. Prices jumped despite a drop in liquefied natural gas (LNG) exports to their lowest since February 2019 as Gulf Coast LNG export plants shut and vessels steered clear of the storm, and traders noted that price gains held after a report showed a storage build in line with estimates. For next week Natural gas may trade within wider range of 186-212.
Cotton futures (Oct) is expected to consolidate in the range of 17400-18200. The upside may remain capped as Cotton Corporation of India has ceased to increase its rates on the spot markets. Secondly, cotton prices are lower quoting in North Indian market due to arrivals of new crop in some of Haryana mandis and weak mill demand at higher price levels. Traders reveal that new crop arrivals will start to flood in from next month, which means prices will face downward pressure in the coming weeks. In the international market, there is uncertainty about damage done by the hurricane and the size of the crop. Secondly, exports and sales were a mixed bag, however, China seems to be a consistent participant. The support and Resistance for ICE cotton futures (Dec) is at 63.50 cents and 66.50 cents per lb, respectively. Guar seed futures (Sept) may consolidate in the range of 4000-4300, while guar gum futures (Sept) may trade sideways in the range of 6300-6800. The lower production indications are supporting guar complex and these counters will get clear direction after there is a clear picture on estimates. Chana futures (Sept) can seen continuing its bull run and heading towards 5000-5100 levels. Most of the pulses and pulse seeds at the mandis in Indore witnessed bullish trend with demand outstripping. The gradual improvement in demand with easing of lockdown norms will boost the demand for pulses going ahead, especially in view of the onset of the long festival season. Life is slowly getting back to normal. People are stepping out of their homes because hotels are resuming their business, which may also buoy demand in days to come.
Base metal may trade in range with bullish bias due to weaker greenback, declining stocks in LME, and expectation of recovery in demand in china. Copper prices are getting support after the U.S. Federal Reserve said it would roll out an aggressive new strategy to lift US employment and inflation, a move that could weaken the dollar which has been hovering around a two-year low. Freeport-McMoran Inc’s Indonesian unit would ease a lockdown at its Grasberg mine after a protest by workers over movement disrupted operations. Copper inventories in LME-registered warehouses at 92,025 tonnes are the lowest since 2006 and down from more than 280,000 tonnes in May. Copper can move towards 550 by taking support near 510. Zinc may move towards 205 and taking support near 190. China’s galvanised steel-consuming sectors such as autos and machinery are gathering momentum that may support the zinc prices. Data from the World Steel Association shows crude steel production in China output jumped more than 9% to 94.4 million tonnes. Lead can move towards 160 while taking support near 150. Nickel may test to 1170 by taking support near 1080. Acombination of improving macroeconomic sentiment and concerns over nickel raw material supply levels in China, have supported prices. Activities at Indonesia’s Weda Bay smelter complex, one of the country’s main nickel processing hubs, resumed after floods halted operations in last week. Aluminum may trade in the range of 142-150 with firm bias. Aluminum Corp of China Ltd, or Chalco said first-half primary aluminium output was 1.86 million tonnes, down slightly from 1.89 million tonnes reported a year earlier and below Rusal’s 1.87 million tonnes.

In the week gone by, CRB traded steady near 153 levels. The entire world was eyeing on Jackson Hole Symposium and Hurricane Laura progress amid some important economic releases. Annual Federal Reserve Symposium that has been traditionally held in Jackson Hole, Wyoming but this year it was virtual.Gold prices continued to move down on buoyancy in equity market whereas silver saw some lower level buying. Bullion was also in some pressure on US China trade talk. The market place breathed a sigh of relief on upbeat news regarding U.S.-China trade talks. Senior trade officials on both sides held a videoconference Monday and reaffirmed the commitment to a partial trade deal agreed upon in January.Base metals remain traded firm. Copper soared high on the back of falling inventories, booming Chinese demand and pandemic hit supply from South America, the US and Africa. The effects of covid-19 could decrease world consumption of the metal by 3%–4% this year, the drop in mine output and scrap flows has been greater. Inventories LME system fell to the lowest in 14 years. With booming Chinese steel production the prices of the galvanizing metal touched its highest in more than nine months and helped it outperform other metals. In energy counter, natural gas continued its upside journey for the continuous fifth week whereas crude remained trapped in a range. Natural gas prices rose on hurricane Laura. Once Hurricane Laura passes, the weather will jump to the front and center with cooler outlooks not boding well for bullish traders.With tropical storm Marco and tropical storm Laura baring down on Loiusinana’s Port Author, approximately 45% of the natural gas in the Gulf of Mexico could be taken offline. The hurricane in the Gulf of Mexico that is bearing down on the U.S. Gulf coast has pushed gasoline futures prices to a five-month high. Oil prices were mixed even as oil rigs and refineries shut ahead of a massive storm in the Gulf of Mexico racing towards Texas and Louisiana, with slim worries about the impact on supply as oil stockpiles remain high.The hurricane threat has affected the market much less than usual, as oil and product inventories remain high due to the coronavirus pandemic's hit to fuel demand, and uncertainty over the pace of the global recovery clouds the outlook. China is quietly buying U.S. and other global food products to make up a huge shortfall caused by major flooding, and crop and infrastructure damage, along the Yangtze river. Market is wondering whether if this situation could help to jumpstart price inflation in the raw commodity sector. Mustard continued to move up on higher crushing demand amid tight supply. Soybean rose on crop damage issue. Turmeric and other spice saw upside move on expectation of better export demand.
Silver has been used for thousands of years for ornaments and utensils, trade, and as the basis for many monetary systems. Its value as a precious metal was long considered second only to gold.

Its unique properties include its strength, malleability, ductility, electrical and thermal conductivity, sensitivity, high reflectance of light, and reactivity.
Leading stock exchange NSE will launch 'silver options' in the commodity derivatives segment from September 1. The exchange has received markets regulator Sebi's nod for 'options' in goods contracts on underlying silver spot price for trading in the commodity derivatives segment, the NSE said in a circular.
The move is aimed at offering new products to commodity market participants and to deepen the market ecosystem. The market participants engaged in import, exports, domestic trading, and manufacturing of silver and silver jewelleries are exposed to price risk. Commodity derivatives products provide an effective hedging tool much to the advantage of market participants. Earlier, the National Stock Exchange (NSE) had launched 'gold mini options' on June 8.

Indian rupee came out to be the best performing currency in Asia in the month of August supported by strong dollar equity inflows of over $6.5 bn in this month so far. Moreover gain in rupee was recorded after RBI governor's statement about further room for monetary easing. Going forward, important economic release next week will be India's second quarter GDP number which is likely to plunge by over 18%, however it is highly discounted in the markets but how policymakers will react to recover the growth will be a matter of concern. Apparently rupee is likely to remain firm amid strong flows sentiment. From the majors, euro rally now broadly supported by dollar weakness. Earlier Fed chair announced that the Fed will be adopting low interest regime and alternative policy mechanism that may trigger additional policy stimulus in the form additional asset purchases which pushes dollar index lower. At this point, cautious approach is required in euro as strong economic data is apparently discounted and broad dollar move will guide euro in coming days. Meanwhile Sterling touched the highest level this year despite the news that the latest round of UK-EU Brexit negotiations ended in negative way. So far pound has remained remarkably stable. This suggests that while there may be some small upside for sterling if a slim trade deal is agreed by 31st December 2020, the risks are skewed heavily to the downside.
