Gold Leading as Oil Slips To New Lows


Morning Report: 8.30 London

• This morning, commodities are on the move, with oil (WTI) slipping to $45 at one point this morning. By contrast, precious metals are in demand, with gold rising for the third day in a row.                                                                                                                                                                                               

                              

                             
                            
• On a similar vein, gold producer Australia is doing well with the AUD/USD up 0.25% this morning, thanks to strong Chinese trade balance.

                            

The Canadian dollar is still struggling however, with the USD/CAD surging yesterday.

                        

• With UK inflation expected to drop below 1% today, the GBP/JPY is struggling, while the EUR/GBP climbs higher.

                         

                         

• The S&P 500 is unchanged so far 

                        
                     
Coming up today:

• Coming up today we have UK CPI at 09.30, with +0.7% expected. RPI is expected to drop to 1.7%, while PPI is expected at -25%
• In the US, JOLTS Job openings come out at 15.00, following by the 10 year bond auction at 18.01.

Trade Idea:

• The GBP/JPY is slipping lower again and could slip even further today if inflation drops further than expected.

                               

A good way to play this is a LOWER trade predicting that the GBP/JPY will close below 179.00 in 3 days time for a potential return of 104%.
