Commodities Daily - July 5, 2019

> Gold prices volatile ahead of US jobs report. The release is scheduled for 15:30 Moscow time. Gold pushed above the $1,423/oz mark overnight but had already corrected to $1,413/oz as of 9:00 Moscow time. If nonfarm payroll growth comes in line with the consensus, we think investors will feel more confident in the chances of a 25 bp Fed rate cut in July. This would push gold below $1,400/oz. If the data is weaker than expected, expectations of a 50 bp cut would rise, and gold could soar to $1,435-1,440/oz.> Yesterday was a quiet day for base metals. Base metals traded mixed on thin volumes due to the US holiday. Zinc came under pressure, while aluminum was able to notch a slight gain. Next week, the US-China trade talks will resume in Beijing. The US restrictions on Huawei and Chinese agricultural imports from the US are likely to be among the main topics discussed.
