Lima Seleksi AwalDalam pemeringkatan pialang berjangka ini, tim juri menetapkan lima persyaratan seleksi awal untuk menyaring pialang berjangka komoditas yang akan diikutkan dalam pemeringkatan. Seleksi pertama, menyangkut kegiatan usaha perusahaan yang tidak dalam status dibekuan transaksi.

Tiga perusahaan tidak lolos karena dibekukan, yaitu PT Central Asset Futures, dan PT Jireh Trillion Berjangka. Dua perusahaan dicabut izinnya (Artha Gading Futures dan Quantum Futures), satu non aktif (Universal Futures). Sebanyak 50 perusahaan pialang berjangka terganjal seleksi laba usaha positif.

Setelah seleksi awal, perusahaan pialang berjangka yang lolos seleksi kemudian diperingkat, dengan menerapkan tiga kriteria pemeringkatan. Ketiga kriteria itu adalah Total Asset Turn Over (TATO), Return on Asset (ROA) dan Return on Equity (ROE). Dalam pemeringkatan ini, hanya 12 perusahaan pialang berjangka yang lolos seleksi awal dan layak diperingkat.

Gold Climbs From Five-Month Low After Biggest Drop Since October



Berita jalatama : Gold advanced from a five-month low, after the biggest one-day drop since October, as investors assessed whether the U.S. economy is strong enough to warrant a reduction in monetary stimulus.

Bullion for immediate delivery gained as much as 0.4 percent to $1,224.39 an ounce, and traded at $1,223.89 at 9:22 a.m. in Singapore. Prices earlier dropped to $1,217.84, the lowest since July 8, after tumbling 2.7 percent yesterday, the most since Oct. 1.

Gold lost 27 percent this year, touching a 34-month low of $1,180.50 in June, on speculation the Fed will start paring asset purchases that drove a 12th annual advance in 2012 as the economy improves. Data yesterday showed that while U.S. manufacturing unexpectedly accelerated in November at the fastest pace in more than two years, retail spending fell on the weekend after Thanksgiving for the first time since 2009.

Gold for February delivery traded at $1,223.40 an ounce on the Comex in New York from $1,221.90 yesterday, when prices slumped 2.3 percent. Trading volume was 3.5 percent below the average for the past 100 days at this time of day, data compiled by Bloomberg showed.

WTI Crude Climbs as China Manufacturing Growth Exceeds Estimates



West Texas Intermediate crude advanced for a second day after data showed manufacturing growth last month exceeded estimates in China, the world’s second-biggest oil consumer.
Futures climbed as much as 0.5 percent in New York. The Purchasing Managers’ Index was 51.4, the National Bureau of Statistics and China Federation of Logistics and Purchasing said yesterday. That matched the 18-month high reached in October and exceeded 24 out of 26 estimates in a Bloomberg News survey. The Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries will keep its oil production quota unchanged at 30 million barrels a day when it meets in Vienna on Dec. 4, another survey showed.
WTI for January delivery rose as much as 48 cents to $93.20 a barrel, and was at $93.14 in electronic trading on the New York Mercantile Exchange at 11:40 a.m. Sydney time. The contract gained 42 cents, or 0.5 percent, to $92.72 on Nov. 29. The volume of all futures traded was about 42 percent above the 100-day average. Prices fell 3.8 percent in November.
Brent for January settlement increased as much as 69 cents, or 0.6 percent, to $110.38 a barrel on the London-based ICE Futures Europe exchange. The European benchmark was at a premium of $17.16 to WTI. It ended the session at $16.97 on Nov. 29, narrowing for a second day.

Tin Gains Seen by Indonesia as Largest Shipper Takes Aim at LME



Indonesia is seeking higher tin prices as the largest exporter presses on with a policy that metal be traded on a local exchange before shipment, affirming a shift that roiled the market when it began three months ago.
The policy, which started on Aug. 30, is on the right track, according to Sutriono Edi, head of the Commodity Futures Trading Regulatory Agency. The government doesn’t envisage changing the rule as volumes on the Indonesian Commodity and Derivatives Exchange, or ICDX, are rising, said Trade Minister Gita Wirjawan, who’s targeting higher prices.
Southeast Asia’s largest economy wants to challenge the London Metal Exchange as the site for setting the benchmark rate for the metal used in smartphones and packaging, as well as boost prices. The curb reduced supplies to the global market, exacerbating a deficit, and pushed futures to a six-month high. This year’s best performing base metal was listed by Morgan Stanley’s Peter Richardson this month as a top pick for 2014.
“I’m pleased but not fully satisfied yet, if possible the price should increase further,” Wirjawan said on Nov. 25 in Jakarta, without giving a specific target. “That’s the value crystallization that we want,” he said.
Tin rose on the LME in July and August, before the rule took effect, and then jumped 9.8 percent in October, the biggest monthly advance since September 2012. The price, which reached $24,000 a metric ton on Oct. 4, traded at $22,915 at 1:34 p.m. in Jakarta yesterday. Stockpiles tracked by LME fell to 10,795 tons yesterday, the smallest since March 2012 and 30 percent below the level on Aug. 30.

Dollar Holds Slide as Taper Bets Pared Before Jobs, Orders Data

The dollar remained lower versus the yen and euro before U.S. data today that may signal a mixed recovery in the world’s biggest economy, damping prospects the Federal Reserve will start reducing stimulus this year.
The greenback held losses against most major counterparts ahead of figures that may show jobless claims increased and durable goods orders fell, while U.S. consumer sentiment improved. The euro remained higher amid speculation a report this week will show a pick up in inflation, reducing the need for the European Central Bank to expand monetary easing.
The dollar was unchanged at 101.28 yen as of 8:26 a.m. in Tokyo after falling 0.4 percent yesterday, its first drop in four days. It traded at $1.3567 per euro after sliding 0.4 percent to $1.3572 in New York. Europe’s shared currency bought 137.40 yen from 137.46 yesterday.
The Labor Department will probably say today jobless claims climbed to 330,000 in the week through Nov. 23, and the Commerce Department may announce that bookings for goods meant to last at least three years fell 2 percent in October, according to Bloomberg News surveys.
A final reading of the Thomson Reuters/University of Michigan consumer sentiment index due today may show the gauge was at 73.1 this month, according to the median estimate of economists surveyed by Bloomberg News. That compares with an initial figure of 72 and an October level of 73.2.
Fed policy makers will pare the monthly pace of bond buying, which tends to debase the U.S. currency to $70 billion at their March 18-19 meeting from the current pace of $85 billion, according to the median of 32 economist estimates in a Bloomberg poll this month.

WTI Rebounds After Biggest Drop in Week as Supplies Seen Falling



West Texas Intermediate rebounded after the biggest drop in a week amid speculation that crude supplies shrank for the first time in more than two months in the U.S., the world’s biggest oil consumer.

Futures advanced as much as 0.3 percent in New York after slipping 0.8 percent yesterday. U.S. crude stockpiles fell 300,000 barrels in the week ended Nov. 22, the first drop in 10 weeks, according to a Bloomberg News survey before an Energy Information Administration report tomorrow. WTI and Brent in London slid yesterday after Iran and world powers reached an interim agreement on the Islamic republic’s nuclear program.

WTI for January delivery gained as much as 25 cents to $94.34 a barrel in electronic trading on the New York Mercantile Exchange. It was at $94.33 at 10:40 a.m. Sydney time. The contract declined 75 cents to $94.09 yesterday, the lowest close since Nov. 20. The volume of all futures traded was about 74 percent below the 100-day average.

Brent for January settlement fell 5 cents to $111 a barrel on the London-based ICE Futures Europe exchange yesterday. The European benchmark crude ended the session at a premium of $16.91 to WTI futures, the widest gap in eight months.

U.S. gasoline supplies probably climbed 1 million barrels last week, according to the median estimate of seven analysts in the Bloomberg survey. Distillate inventories, a category that includes heating oil and diesel, fell 1.03 million.
