Outlook
In the evening session, we expect precious metals, base metals and crude oil prices to trade lower on the back of weakness in global markets coupled with strength in the DX. Additionally, forecast for favorable economic data from US will lead to expectations of pullback in its stimulus measures from the Federal Reserve thereby exerting downside pressure on prices. However, if data doesnt come as per the estimates sharp downside can be cushioned or reversal can be seen in the commodities.
