Commodities Daily - August 9, 2018

Oil falls as US-China trade dispute escalates, slightly bearish EIA inventory report released. It will be key to follow whether yesterday's strong bearish momentum will continue or whether buyers will be eager to enter long positions at the low current oil prices. Today, we think that the latter is more likely than the former and expect Brent to trade within a $72-73/bbl range.Gold continues to trade sideways amid escalating trade tensions. Today, trade tensions will remain center stage, with investors also eyeing the release of the US July PPI at 15:30 Moscow time. This comes ahead of tomorrow's CPI figures, and if both surprise to the upside, implying accelerating inflation, this could induce talk of a faster Fed rate cycle and thus result in a stronger dollar. We think gold will continue to trade within the $1,210-1,215/oz range today.
