OIL:
WTI crude oil prices fell 3.3% to just above $68 per barrel on Monday after China’s economic stimulus measures fell short of expectations, heightening concerns about demand in the world’s second-largest oil consumer.
Market sentiment was further strained by Donald Trump’s US election win and his pro-drilling stance.
A strong US dollar increased oil costs for other currency holders, pressuring prices.
Weak Chinese economic data stoked deflation fears, worsening demand outlooks.
Projected supply growth from non-OPEC producers and OPEC+’s ongoing challenges in managing production levels to stabilize the market added to investor unease. Traders are closely monitoring the 2025 global demand outlook, potential impacts of Trump’s policies, and rising geopolitical tensions between Israel and Iran.
Reports due this week from OPEC, the U.S. Energy Information Administration, and the International Energy Agency are expected to provide valuable insights
GOLD/SILVER:
– Gold and silver prices are sharply lower, with gold strongly down and hitting a four-week low, in midday U.S. trading Monday. A surge in the U.S. dollar index to a 4.5-month high, solidly lower crude oil prices and rising U.S. Treasury yields are all bearish outside-market elements working against the metals markets today. Also featured is technical selling pressure and more profit taking from the shorter-term futures traders. Metals traders are also concerned about less demand coming out of China.
Technically, December gold bulls have lost the overall near-term technical advantage for the first time in months. Bears are now working on a price downtrend on the daily bar chart. This suggests a near-term market top is in place. Bulls’ next upside price objective is to produce a close above solid resistance at $2,700.00. Bears’ next near-term downside price objective is pushing futures prices below solid technical support at $2,550.00. First resistance is seen at $2,650.00 and then at $2,675.00. First support is seen at the October low of $2,618.80 and then at $2,600.00
