Oil slides as Trump fires salvo at OPEC ahead of OPEC+ ministerial meeting. We expect Brent to make another approach to $80/bbl today amid a weaker dollar and surging European stock markets. Investors will also be positioning themselves ahead of this Sunday's OPEC+ ministerial committee meeting in Algeria, where we think a bearish recommendation to increase production is in the cards. Gold prices surge amid risk-on mood as trade tensions pick up. Given that the US-China trade war will continue and that the 10y US Treasury yield is holding above 3%, it will be difficult for EM currencies to advance further, even if risk-on trading persists. We believe EUR/USD is likely to trade flat today, which, in our view, should result in gold hovering around the $1,210/oz mark for the rest of the day.
