Commodities Spread Betting, 4 Jul 08
With Crude Oil prices continuing to set record highs on a daily basis it's really difficult to see any light at the end of the tunnel and despite all the talk from our political leaders about taking action over high oil prices it isn't stopping the bulls from setting their sights on the next big oil target - $200.
Whilst many blame the rise on speculators driving the price of oil higher there are still plenty of sellers meeting the buying demand as many oil companies lock in profits. At the same time the oil companies position themselves with hedges in case the bubble does burst and prices take a little tumble.
Commodities Spread Betting, 3 Jul 08
Oil hit a new all time high last night and is higher again this morning with Brent trading at around $146. The $150 level is within a single trading days range but we may pause for breath before we take the leap. Remember the delay at the $100 level where the market continually rejected the psychological three-digit number before breaking decisively through it? Coal had a big down day yesterday to add to the previous session and the price has fallen from $180 a tonne to $150. Whilst Crude Oil is not Coal they do not both act in a vacuum to the other as energy is energy from whatever source.
The weak dollar is causing much of the recent commodity spike and the laissez faire attitude of the US administration to the value of the Greenback is coming back to haunt them in the shape of higher dollar based commodity prices. Interest rates at 2% when the economies of the Union are performing no worse than most other Western nations tell their own story in the Feds policy on the dollar no matter what Treasury Secretary Paulson says to the contrary.

Crude Oil is pressing the highs again this morning after Obama’s policy advisor stated that Iran’s nuclear ambitions were ‘the biggest risk to world stability for the next decade’. Not a clever piece of statesmanship.
Gold, having broken out of the range which had it in thrall for the last few months is making up for lost time at the moment with the weak dollar once more allowing the bulls to bite back. We are now up at $940 bucks, $50 dollars above the level this time last week and beating the last rally high.

Commodities Spread Betting, 1 Jul 08
Crude Oil is back up again at $141 having drifted lower in evening trade yesterday but dealers will probably not be too aggressive ahead of tomorrows Inventory numbers. With the dollar looking to weaken again commodity prices are getting the reverse gain once more as their prices rise to compensate for the weaker currency.
Commodities Spread Betting, 30 Jun 08
Last week’s Commodities: The Saudis intention to increase output by 200,000 bpd was not enough. The price only dropped briefly on weekly inventory numbers before rallying to a record high of $142.26.
Note that the president of OPEC said that he could see oil at $170 this summer. Brent Crude Oil finished the week up $6 at $140.31.
A combination of trading into the safe haven of gold, rising inflation and a weak dollar saw gold rise $20 to $925.15;

Crude Oil traded the entire current range in one day yet again and bounced off the same general lows as it has done seven times this month after the US inventory numbers showed a greater storage level than expected. Brent remains stuck between $131.50 and $138. Financial Spreads Account holders are selling whenever it approaches the highs and buying at the lows, the day traders are having a good time of it at the moment.
Commodities Spread Betting, 25 Jun 08
Overall the markets still seem to be stuck in the same trading range that has dominated over the past three months with Gold oscillating between $850 and $910.
Even Crude Oil has struggled to make much progress in recent weeks trading continuously between $131.50 and $138.50, although the actual price action each day is positively frightening.
Commodities Spread Betting, 23 Jun 08
Last week’s Commodities Markets:
Gold pushed through the $900 barrier up $40 to close the week at $905.6.
On Monday weakness in the Dollar saw oil shoot to a new high of $139.89. However in a week awash with headlines and rumours crude was unable to sustain that level. Talk of Israeli military exercises, terrorist attacks on oil companies in Nigeria and China raising the price of oil to individuals bounced the price around the $130-139 trading range. Having said that Brent Crude ended the week barely changed at $134.86.
