Markets Erase Soggy Start, Oil, Metals Firmer

COMMODITIES

A broad risk-off theme twinned with USD strength provided an initial anchor for commodity prices, but this effect was erased ahead of the close, as a record high open for the Dow Jones Industrial Average helped boost risk appetite.

This prompted oil markets to reverse early weakness and return higher, with WTI crude futures keeping pressure on the Friday multi-month high of $46.68.

A similar story for precious metals after gold erased early downside to trade firmly into the close. Monday's rally opens first resistance at the 50-day EMA of $1870.00 but a break above here would open the next leg higher to target $1888.90, the 61.8% retracement of the Nov 9 - 30 sell-off.
