Commodities Daily - October 23, 2018

Oil slides in choppy trading as Saudi Arabia pledges to pursue market stability. This morning, the Brent price has fallen below the $79/bbl mark, pressured by the weak trading session in Asia and the stronger dollar. Overall, we think Brent is likely to consolidate below $79/bbl later today and hold in the $78.5-79.0/bbl range. A major risk to this view is the unveiling today by Turkish President Erdogan of what could be sensitive details from the investigation into the murder of journalist Jamal Khashoggi.Gold rallies on risk-off trading amid sliding stock market and elevated geopolitical uncertainty. Our FX team thinks the dollar will find support against the euro on the Italian budget uncertainty amid the risk-off trading, which would cap gold price gains if the rally leads prices closer toward the $1,240/oz mark. We expect gold to consolidate and trade within a $1,230-1,235/oz range throughout the day.
