> Oil dips amid bearish EIA report, OPEC+ comments, despite stock market gains and weaker dollar. This morning, Brent is trending lower, targeting the $58.5/bbl mark, with investors now turning their attention to Saturday's Trump-Xi meeting (at which the chances for a sustainable resolution seem bleak). Given all the recent bearish developments, even with the tailwinds from higher stock markets and a weaker dollar, we do not think that Brent will recover to $60/bbl today. > Gold surges as Fed chair surprises markets with dovish stance; Fed minutes in focus. Today the market awaits the minutes from the November Fed meeting (22:00 Moscow time), which will shape dollar momentum and affect gold prices ahead of the Trump-Xi meeting this weekend. We think the minutes are likely to show a wider discussion of a slower rate hike cycle. This could create dovish sentiment, pressuring the greenback and supporting gold. We therefore expect gold to approach the $1,230/oz mark later.
