COMMODITY ROUNDUP

Gold futures extended the early loss on profit taking amid

due to strong US dollar. The metal has generally had a

good week, as expectations the Federal Reserve will keep

rates on hold for an extended period of time after the

bank's bond-buying program ends in October and worries

pertaining to the Portugal banking troubles. A rather dis-

appointing decision by India to not cut import duties on

the yellow metal also boosted sentiments as the COMEX

Gold ran up to its four month highs near $1350 per

ounce.

The COMEX Gold futures for August delivery trades at

$1,337.60, down $1.60 a troy ounce and Silver September

quotes at $21.483 a troy ounce, down $0.025 on Fri-

day. MCX Gold off the three months high ON Friday with

the August contract quotes at Rs 28,307, down Rs 189

and silver September quotes at Rs 46085, down Rs 179 on

Friday. Indian rupee appreciated and quotes at Rs 60.04,

down 0.25%.

MCX Copper was turning red in the last trading day of the

week. The week saw declines in the Chinese imports but

the report was countered by the jobless claims numbers

from the US. This revived the confidence in the people

that the demand for metals will keep improving. Indian

Copper was trading at Rs 435.1 per kg, down 0.56%. The

prices tested a low of Rs 434.85 per kg, and a high of Rs

437.55 per kg. COMEX Copper was last checked at $ 3.259

per pound, down 0.8 cents.

After Finance Minister talked about raising royalty rates

on major minerals, the iron ore mining sector fears ore

prices will shoot up further. Currently, the royalty is

charged at 10 per cent of the mineral value and it was last

increased in August 2009.

The royalty rates are likely to be raised before the Octo-

ber quarter, as state governments have made a strong

pitch for the hike. Generally, royalty rates are revised in

every three years. However, it was not revised since Au-

gust 2013, as the previous UPA govt postponed it in view

of the general elections.

CURRENCY ROUNDUP

The Indian rupee gained on Friday on dollar sales by a large

corporate, but that was not enough to prevent its first

weekly fall in three as markets reeled on disappointment

over the lack of specifics in the federal budget. The partially

convertible rupee ended at 59.93/94 per dollar compared

with 60.19/20 on Thursday, boosted largely by dollar sales

from a large corporate.

The rupee fell 0.3 percent for the week, snapping two

weeks of gains. Investors will also look out for the consumer

price inflation data and the wholesale price data due to be

released on Monday for direction. In the offshore non-

deliverable forwards, the one-month contract was at 60.31,

while the three-month was at 60.84.

Euro slipped again against the US dollar on Friday amid with

the pair quotes at $1.3603, down 0.03% on Friday. The

trades in US Dollar were favoring buying against the Euro.

Meanwhile, INR also showed signs of weakness after the

budget at 60.03 per Dollar, down 0.26%.

The U.S. dollar ended the week lower against the traditional

safe haven Swiss franc as the Federal Reserve's dovish

stance on rates and fresh fears over the risk of contagion in

Europe's banking sector weighed. USD/CHF was at 0.8922

late Friday, ending the week with losses of 0.31%. The pair

is likely to find support at the 0.8900 level and resistance at

0.8960.

The dollar fell to one week lows against the Swiss franc on

Thursday, before recovering, as concerns over the fiscal sta-

bility of Portugal's largest lender Banco Espirito Santo fu-

elled a sharp selloff in markets, amid fears over the risk of

contagion. In the week ahead, investors will be watching

testimony on monetary policy by Federal Reserve Chair

Janet Yellen. Switzerland is to release data on economic ex-

pectations and producer prices.
