COMMODITIES
COMMODITIES: The broader commodities complex remains under severe pressure, with
metals (both precious and industrial) and energy prices all lower. Today's spot
platinum low is just $12 away from breaking through 2008 lows, which would mark
the lowest platinum price since 2003. Palladium is faring the worst, down as
much as 6.5% today and touching the lowest since last year. Stronger dollar and
emerging markets concerned are largely responsible, although markets are
gradually paying more attention to economic concerns in China, with USD/CNY
approaching 6.95 and domestic equities (and their US-listed ADRs) weakening
sharply.
