Updates on Bullion, Base Metal and Energy Levels 31st October 2017
Gold futures ended higher on Monday ahead of a series of central bank meetings and US President Donald Trump's expected announcement of the next Federal Reserve chair amid a slightly weaker US dollar.
Crude oil futures extended their gains to the new week, on speculation that Opec will agree to extend output cuts beyond March. Traders even overlooked the concerns over an uptick in Iraqi exports and continued their march higher, rising to an eight-month high amid bullish talk from Opec and non-Opec members on output-cut agreement. OPEC Secretary General Mohammad Barkindo said Russian-Saudi backing for an extension cleared the fog ahead of the group's meeting in Vienna on Nov. 30. Meanwhile, Iraq's southern ports ramp up export capacity by 900,000 barrels per day (bpd) to 4.6 million bpd.
Comex copper futures ended higher on Monday, while London copper prices too rose as a retreat in the dollar after its biggest one-week gain this year, tempted buyers back to the metal.
