The week before last was a rough one for commodities as their prices headed south. Last week, however, saw a U-turn.
Crude Oil regained much of its losses, with an attack on pipes in southern Iraq providing some support. Brent Crude Oil closed at $103.5.
Crude Oil Spread Betting, 24 Mar 08
Looking at last week, Crude oil made the $111.80 mark on Monday. However, commodities suffered a wicked reversal on Wednesday. There didn't appear to be one single explanation for this move, more a combination of reasons. Funds were rumoured to be locking in profits, preferring cash ahead of the Easter holiday. Also hedge funds were thought to be raising cash for higher margin calls by closing profitable trades. Brent Crude Oil ended the week at $100.38, down $7.
Crude Oil Spread Betting, 18 Mar 08
Commodity markets had a pretty solid reversal yesterday. Brent Crude Oil fell $4 yesterday to 'just' $102.00.
Crude Oil Spread Betting, 17 Mar 08
The continuing collapse of the Dollar, together with contrasting fears of both higher inflation and collapsing asset prices, saw investors scrambling for safety. Both oil and gold benefited from their 'safe haven status'. Brent Crude Oil climbed a further $5 to finish the week at $107.55.
