Silver faces short-term pressure; strong ETF inflows to lend support
Silver: Good opportunity to accumulate Performance: Spot silver slumped 3 per cent on July 30 and extended its decline to July 31. Silver has been hit hard on dwindling rate cut expectations and stronger US Dollar. At the time of writing this article, the grey metal was changing hands at $36.64, down 1.3 per cent for the day as it fell to $36.21, lowest since July 1, before erasing some of its losses. Weak data out of China are also weighing on the metal. China's manufacturing PMI (July) underwhelmed as it came in at 49.30, lowest since January and lower than the estimate of 49.70 as the manufacturing activities contracted for the fourth consecutive month, while services sector barely expanded as the non-manufacturing PMI fell from 50.50 to 50.10, lowest since November 2024. Data roundup: US PCE Price Index (June) rose 0.3 per cent month-on-month (M-o-M) matching the forecast of 0.3 per cent but higher than the revised 0.2 per cent increase observed in May, while year-on-year (Y-o-Y) increase was 2.6 per cent vs the forecast of 2.5 per cent, which was higher than the revised 2.4 per cent increase in May. Core PCE registered an increase of 0.3 per cent M-o-M, which was in line with the forecast of 0.3 per cent, but was higher than the prior reading of 0.2 per cent. Core PCE Y-o-Y at 2.8 per cent moved further away from the Fed's target of 2 per cent as it turned out to be hotter than the expected reading of 2.7 per cent as even prior data was revised higher from 2.7 per cent to 2.8 per cent. Employment cost index Q2 at 0.9 per cent was higher than the estimate of 0.8 per cent. Initial jobless claims and continuing claims were lower than their respective forecasts. Earlier, US data released on July 30 showed that pickup in net exports added 5 per cent to GDP growth in Q2, which boosted the inflation-adjusted US growth to an annualised pace of 3 per cent in Q2 vs the forecast of 2.6 per cent. However, the economic growth in the first half of 2025 averaged merely 1.25 per cent, slower than the 2024 pace. Final sales to private domestic purchases rose 1.2 per cent in Q2, the slowest growth since the end of 2022. ADP employment change came in at 104K vs the forecast of 76K. FOMC monetary policy decision: The Fed's monetary policy decision announced on July 30 was somewhat hawkish. The Central Bank kept the rates unchanged at 4.25 per cent-4.50 per cent. The Fed Chair said that they have not made any decisions regarding the September meeting as more data are needed to act amid uncertainty over tariff impacts. Odds of September rate cut have dipped to below 50 per cent. US Dollar Index and yields: The US Dollar Index firmed up on hawkish FOMC outcome. At the time of writing, the Index was hovering around 99.97, up 0.15 per cent on the day, and at a 2-month high. Notwithstanding positive US data, ten-year US yields dipped 3 basis points (bps) to 4.34 per cent; 30-year yields eased by 2 bps to 4.88 per cent, too. Tariff developments: Trump's tariffs on Mexico have been delayed 90 days as trade talks will continue. It is to be noted that the US, citing fentanyl smuggling, has slapped 25 per cent tariffs on Mexico. The US has levied a 15 per cent tariff on South Korea and has also included major investments in American energy and shipbuilding in the trade agreement. The Trump administration has imposed 40 per cent tariffs on Brazil and has called the tariffs as necessary as the administration sees Brazil's policies threatening US national security. President Trump was not hopeful on a trade deal with Canada as the nation prepared to recognise a Palestinian state. Challenge to Trump's tariffs: A group of small businesses and states have challenged the legality of Trump's tariffs in a court as they argued that no emergency exists to allow the President to skip legal steps to impose tariffs. The US Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit in Washington heard oral arguments on Thursday, but it may take weeks to deliver the verdict. Even then the case may drag on for months as it may finally end up at the US Supreme Court. The Trump administration has used the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA) to impose tariffs. Gold/Silver ratio: Gold/Silver ratio at 89.96 has recovered nearly 5 per cent after it reached a seven-month low at 85.88 on July 14. Silver ETF Holdings and Comex Inventory: As of July 30, total known ETF holdings of silver stood at 790.01 MOz, a 3-year high on investors' interest. Silver holdings are up over 9 per cent year-to-date (YTD). Comex silver inventory at 504.33 MOz is near the record high of 505 MOz observed on May 12. Gold/Silver ratio at 89.96 has recovered nearly 5 per cent after it reached a seven-month low at 85.88 on July 14. Upcoming data: Today, US nonfarm payroll report (July) will be released. The report will be crucial as investors look for clues to Fed rate cuts. A weakening job market would increase rate cut odds. In addition, ISM manufacturing (July) and University of Michigan sentiment and inflation expectations (July final) data will also entertain investors. Outlook: Weak Chinese data is a negative factor for the metal. Firm US Dollar and weakness in industrial commodities support the bearish case. Huge ETF inflows and restrained US yields are positive factors. Medium-to-long term fundamentals remain bullish. A re-test of the crucial support at $35 (MCX September Silver contract) is possible. Now, $37.50 (₹1,12,500) will act as a strong resistance. A dip towards $35 should be used for accumulating the metal for medium-to-long term horizon. For ultra short-term trading, selling into rallies with a tight stop-loss is advisable. Geopolitical developments concerning Russia and volatility in the domestic currency need to be monitored.

Copper futures plunge 4 pc to record low on US tariff announcement
Agency: PTI Last Updated: New Delhi, Jul 31 (PTI) Copper futures on the MCX slumped 4 per cent to touch a record low of Rs 861.70 per kilogram on Thursday after the US administration announced a steep 50 per cent tariff on imports of semi-finished copper and copper-based products, effective August 1. On the Multi-Commodity Exchange (MCX), the August contract of copper declined sharply by Rs 35.9 or 4 per cent to hit a record low of Rs 861.70 per kilogram. Subsequently, the September contract also fell by Rs 35.95 to touch a historic low of Rs 866.45 per kilogram on the commodities bourse. A White House executive order, dated July 30, said that copper is being imported into the US in quantities and under circumstances that threaten to impair national security. '…all imports of semi-finished copper products and intensive copper derivative products…shall be subject to a 50 per cent tariff. This tariff shall be effective with respect to goods entered for consumption, or withdrawn from warehouse for consumption, on or after 12:01 am Eastern Daylight Time on August 1, 2025, and shall continue in effect, unless such action is expressly reduced, modified, or terminated," it said. Meanwhile, India exported copper products worth USD 360 million to the US in FY2025, including plates, tubes, and other semi-finished forms. These shipments will now be more expensive in the US. India is a net importer of copper, with imports totalling USD 14.45 billion in 2024-25, far outweighing its exports. Its main suppliers include Chile, Indonesia, and Australia. Notably, India also imported USD 288 million of copper scrap from the US, which may now become less viable due to disrupted bilateral copper flows. The impact of the US tariff was felt across the overseas markets, with copper futures on the Comex in the US plunging nearly 22 per cent to USD 4.38 a pound, marking the largest single-day decline on record. On the London Metal Exchange (LME), copper for October delivery decreased by 1.02 per cent to USD 9,698.50 a tonne. Analysts said the move by the US administration to impose tariffs on semi-finished copper products has introduced volatility in the market, with fears of disruption to trade flows and increased uncertainty in the industrial metals sector. Riya Singh, Research Analyst, Commodities and Currency, Emkay Global Financial Services, said the impact on India from the new US tariff is expected to be limited as exports of semi-finished copper products to the US were worth around USD 360 million in FY25, forming a small fraction of the country's total copper trade. Singh noted that India is a net importer of copper, sourcing mainly from countries like Chile and Indonesia, which are not directly affected by the US tariff. However, she pointed out that the global copper trade could face temporary disruptions. 'Internationally, the redirection of copper trade could temporarily ease global benchmark prices due to oversupply pressures elsewhere. In the medium term, supply chain realignments and a rise in geopolitical tensions may increase the risk premium on global copper prices," she said. Heena Naik, Research Analyst, Currency at Angel One, said copper prices, which had been on an uptrend, reversed course dramatically in just two days. Naik added that President Trump's earlier hints in February and July about possible tariffs had prompted a surge in shipments of copper products to the US, pushing premiums higher. 'This imposition of tariffs is likely to have a direct impact on neighbouring countries like Mexico and Canada and indirectly on China, which is the world's largest producer of copper products. It could also disrupt the global copper supply chain and price system," she said. According to Yash Sawant, Commodity Fundamental Analyst at Choice Broking, the tariff decision has caused copper to accumulate in US warehouses while tightening inventories elsewhere. 'This growing supply imbalance is already driving domestic premiums lower. The surplus in the US could lead to re-exports or a reduced import appetite for related copper products, potentially disrupting traditional trade routes and putting downward pressure on global premiums," Sawant added.
