    Fundamental Market Overview

    3 | www.capitalvia.comCapitalvia Global Research Limited

    Gold retreated below $1,360 an ounce on Friday after the resignation of Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak following weeks of protest took some heat out of risk

    aversion. Despite the decline, bullion posted its second consecutive weekly gain as fears that Egypt's unrest would spread across the Arab world had put a floor on

    Gold prices. Mubarak, the second Arab leader to be overthrown by a popular uprising in a month, handed power to the army after 18 days of relentless rallies

    against poverty, corruption and repression caused support from the armed forces to evaporate. Spot Gold fell 0.4 percent to $1,357.95 an ounce, having earlier

    risen to a three-week high of $1,368.16. U.S. Gold futures for April delivery settled down $2.1 at $1,360.4. Futures trading volume was 40 percent below its 30-day

    average, in line with lower turnover during the week. Some traders said dwindling volume could signal waning investor interest in gold. Gold was weakened further

    after data showed stronger-than-expected U.S. consumer sentiment, which rose to an eight-month high in early February. Gold fell 6 percent in January after a run

    of well-received U.S. data and easing worries about Europe's debt crisis shifted investor focus onto assets seen as higher-risk, but its slide has been arrested this

    month.

    Investment demand for Gold remained soft, with holdings of the world's largest Gold-backed exchange-traded fund, New York's SPDR Gold Trust, easing nearly a

    tonne on Thursday. They are down just over 55 tonnes so far this year. In the same period of 2010, they fell around 27 tonnes. "Consistent offloading by ETFs, who

    were pivotal in taking the metal beyond $1,400, and lackluster physical demand, are the key bearish forces curbing sustained gains". Premiums for Gold bars were

    steady in Hong Kong and Singapore, with no signs of buying interest from China after the Lunar New Year celebration. There was hardly any physical buying in Asia

    related to unrest in Egypt.

    ETF DEMAND STAYS SOFT

    Gold retreats after Mubarak resigns; support seen

    U.S. oil prices fell to a 10-week low on Friday after Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak stepped down and handed over power to the army. Mubarak's departure

    came after 18 days of mass protests that had raised concern about potential for supply disruptions and a spread of the turmoil to major oil producers in the region

    and had helped push ICE Brent crude futures above $100 a barrel for the first t ime since 2008. U.S. Crude futures for March delivery fell $1.15 to settle at $85.58 a

    barrel, the lowest close in 10 weeks and off 3.89 percent on the week, the biggest weekly percentage loss since the week to Nov. 19. Money managers increased

    their net long Crude futures positions on the New York Mercantile Exchange in the week to Tuesday, as Egypt's protests raged, according to a Commodity Futures

    Trading Commission report released late on Friday. In addition to the unrest in the region, OPEC producers have been subject to calls to boost production on

    concerns that oil prices above $100 a barrel will stifle the global economic recovery. But, so far, OPEC officials have resisted calls for an emergency meeting to

    address high prices and output targets. Monthly reports from both the International Energy Agency and OPEC this week showed higher production from the OPEC

    nations, but they expected global demand to keep rising.

    OPTIMISM ABOUT THE ECONOMY

    U.S. Consumer sentiment rose to its highest level in eight months in early February, according to the Thomson Reuters/University of Michigan Surveys of

    Consumers and in a separate survey, the U.S. economy and jobs market were seen growing more strongly in the first quarter than previously expected. U.S. stocks

    rose as Egypt's clearer political picture lifted investor sentiment. A stronger dollar can curb dollar-denominated oil prices because consumers using other

    currencies must pay more for the commodity and the value of dollars paid to producers is higher.

    US Oil falls to 10-wk low as Mubarak steps down

    Copper bounced from a near two-week low to end a shade higher on Friday, as broader market sentiment gradually improved after news of the resignation of

    Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak. Mubarak handed power over to the army, ending three decades of autocratic rule, and bowing to escalating pressure from the

    military and protesters demanding he goes. Copper's turnaround tracked a similar reversal in world equity markets, as Mubarak's departure was seen partially

    reviving investors' appetite for risk. "The markets are saying Egypt may not be as big a risk at this point." London Metal Exchange (LME) Copper for three-month

    delivery ended $10 higher at $9,961 a tonne, up from an earlier session low at $9,838, its lowest level since Feb. 1. As a result, the price now sits just $100 below

    Monday's record peak at $10,160. COMEX March Copper eased 0.75 cent to settle at $4.5360 per lb, near the upper end of its $4.4810 to $4.5795 session range,

    and about 10 cents below its own record peak at $4.6375. Backed by widespread expectations of robust global demand growth this year against a backdrop of

    falling production, Copper prices have managed to remain buoyant, even as profit-taking pressures mounted this week. "We are seeing a lot of volume come in

    and accumulating a lot of positions at these levels. To me, it seems like an entrenched long-side that is going to hold these trades out for a while." Indeed, at

    around 51,300 lots by 1900 GMT, COMEX volumes stood about 40 percent above the 30-day average. But worries about the near-term demand outlook in China

    lingered after the world's top Copper consumer raised interest rates on Tuesday in an effort to rein in inflation.

    Underscoring Copper's demand worries, Shanghai stockpiles rose nearly 10,000 tonnes to 144,197 tonnes, latest weekly data showed. Stocks of Copper in LMEwarehouses fell 225 tonnes to 396,725 tonnes, but a recent trend of rising stocks has raised some concerns about the demand outlook. Stocks of aluminum fell

    2,325 tonnes but were just 41,300 tonnes off a record high of 4,640,750 tonnes hit on Jan. 20, 2010. Vast amounts of the metal used in transport and packaging

    have been tied up under cheap rent and financing deals, where metal holders profit if prices rise faster than storage costs.
