- Thursday, September 20, 2012, 11:33 AM Used to correlations among asset classes seemingly near 1 for the past few years, do market watchers need to get ready for a new regime? The S&P 500 and the price of copper have begun to widely diverge, with their correlation over the past 30 days recently hitting zero! 1 Comment [Global & FX]
- Friday, September 14, 2012, 3:57 PM Copper futures (JJC +2.2%) jump 3.3% to their highest settlement in five months as investors flocked to buy in the wake of the Fed's QE3 decision. TD Securities' Bart Melek is mindful that U.S. copper demand had slumped 18% in 2009 before the launch of QE2; by Q4 2011, demand had surged 9.4% Y/Y to 424K metric tons. Comment! [Commodities, On the Move]
- Friday, September 7, 2012, 9:58 AM Gold hits its highest level since February, +1.4% to $1,731 as QE expectations for next week ratchet up following the payroll report. Silver and copper follow suit, both posting large gains and multi-month highs. And don't forget Beijing - now getting serious about its own stimulus efforts. 8 Comments [Commodities, On the Move]
- Tuesday, September 4, 2012, 11:21 AM Does the divergence of copper (JJC) and the homebuilders (XHB) offer an investment opportunity? Reports of declining economic growth in China, Europe and the U.S. have taken copper lower, likely a bearish indicator for homebuilders, Tim Seymour writes; their shares have soared, but the slowest part of the year is looming for the international real estate sector, particularly homebuilders. 1 Comment [Commodities, Consumer, Quick Ideas]
- Tuesday, August 28, 2012, 5:06 PM Commodity prices have only begun to drop, writes Michael Pettis (not yet available on web), attributing nearly the entirety of increased demand over the past decade to "incredibly unbalanced growth" in China (now coming to an end). Recently, it's gotten even more unwholesome, with much of Chinese demand going to build mountains of inventory. Expect the country to soon become a net seller of a number of commodities. 1 Comment [Commodities, Global & FX]
- Tuesday, August 14, 2012, 1:33 PM The ground is literally cracking under the weight of copper inventories in China, write 2 analysts from SCB, surprised at the speed with which a downtrend of stocks has reversed, and the ability of warehouse operators to somehow pack even more of the metal in. JJC hangs in there, -3.3% YTD. 1 Comment [Commodities]
- Wednesday, July 18, 2012, 5:53 PM Analysts are slashing predictions of a copper glut as producers from Chile to Indonesia contend with aging mines and strikes at a time of record demand. The global surplus will total 18.5K metric tons, according to a Bloomberg survey, 85% less than a January forecast of 124K tons; the survey also says prices will rally as much as 14% to $8,700/ton by year's end. 2 Comments [Commodities]
- Thursday, June 21, 2012, 12:27 PM The commodity sector is lit up bright red - the markets (stocks too) apparently waiting until today to throw a tantrum over disappointment on no new QE. GLD -2%, SLV -3.6%, Copper (JJC) -2.2%. Crude oil takes out $80/barrel and more, now at $79.45, USO -2.1%. Corn -2.8%, Cotton -6%. 10 Comments [Commodities]
- Friday, June 8, 2012, 5:54 PM Copper closed the week at a six-month low, as traders shed their initial positive reaction to China's rate cut to focus on the move as a sign of weak Chinese economic growth. Barclays says any boost in demand from Beijing’s pro-growth measures might not be felt until Q4, and the “magnitude of support... is not seen as being anywhere near the same scale as the stimulus of 2008-09." Comment! [Commodities, Global & FX]
- Thursday, June 7, 2012, 7:42 AM More on the PBOC rate cut: It's the first reduction since the depths of 2008's financial crisis, and follows on the heels of China's banking regulator delaying for a year stricter bank capital rules. Beijing has also been seen fast-tracking previously tied-up infrastructure projects. Amidst a strong worldwide rally yesterday, shares in Shanghai fell 0.7%. The slowdown clearly has Beijing's attention. 3 Comments [Global & FX]
- Thursday, June 7, 2012, 7:16 AM More on the China rate cut: The 1-year lending rate is now 6.31%, the 1-year deposit rate is now 3.25%. Another easing move, banks will now be allowed to offer loans at a 20% discount from the benchmark rate, whereas before they were allowed just 10%. (PBOC statement) Comment! [Global & FX]
- Wednesday, June 6, 2012, 10:08 AM Hedge funds have doubled their net shorts of the S&P 500 in the last three weeks, reports SocGen. They're at record highs with euro shorts, and have turned net sellers of copper. "Waning support" makes the S&P and Nasdaq "highly vulnerable," says SocGen. Actually, it's the hedge funds that are vulnerable, writes Brendan Conway. 24 Comments [Quick Ideas]
- Wednesday, May 30, 2012, 7:38 AM Short-covering of copper by Chinese firms may actually be driving the world price lower as the country's largest producer is exporting the metal to LME warehouses to cover its shorts. The move makes sense as the sluggish economy has dragged the price of copper lower in China than at the LME. Comment! [Global & FX, Commodities]
- Friday, May 25, 2012, 3:50 PM U.S. Commodity Funds is cutting the management fee on its Copper Index Fund (CPER) by 31.5% to better compete against iPath's Pure Beta Copper ETN (CUPM). Both funds are tiny - less than $3M in assets (JJC is the gorilla in the sector) - but CPER is an ETF as opposed to the ETN structure of the other offerings. Comment! [Commodities]
- Friday, May 18, 2012, 8:41 AM The typical pattern of China building up metals inventories in Q1 and using up through the rest of the year isn't holding as the piles keep growing larger, with granaries and car parks taking the excess from brimming warehouses. The stationary cargo trains at Qingdao port are tell a different story than still-decent PMI reports. 2 Comments [Global & FX, Commodities]
- Monday, May 14, 2012, 3:43 AM After commodities hit nearly two-year lows last week, investors are wondering whether the decade-long rally is over. Various headwinds prevail, including a slowdown in China, a U.S. economy that has yet to regain its momentum, and temporary supply gluts for some raw materials. 4 Comments [Commodities]
