Gold Trades Near Highest Since May as Syria Tensions Spur Demand



Gold traded near the highest level since May after a four-day rally as speculation that the U.S. may lead military strikes against Syria within days spurred investors’ demand for a haven. Silver advanced.
Bullion for immediate delivery rose as much as 0.3 percent to $1,419.55 an ounce and was at $1,415.75 at 8:43 a.m. in Singapore. Prices climbed to $1,423.95 yesterday, the highest since May 15. Gold for December delivery declined 0.3 percent to $1,415.90 an ounce on the Comex after rising 2 percent yesterday.
The U.S., France and Britain stepped closer to a strike against Syria, laying the legal groundwork to justify military action, moving forces into place and rounding up allies. Syria is suspected of launching an Aug. 21 chemical-weapons attack outside Damascus. Gold is heading for a second monthly rise.
The Standard & Poor’s 500 Index (SPX) dropped 1.6 percent yesterday, the most since June 20, while the MSCI Asia Pacific Index retreated 1.1 percent today. West Texas Intermediate crude rose for a second day amid speculation supplies may be disrupted.
Assets in the SPDR Gold Trust reached the highest since Aug. 1, gaining 0.1 percent to 921.03 metric tons, according to data on the fund’s website. Holdings rose for a second week in the five days to Aug. 23 as prices rebounded from a 34-month low in June.

Crude Up on Syria as Asian Stocks, Silver Fall, Yen Rises



Crude oil climbed, while Asian stocks and most precious metals retreated, after U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry said Syria will be held accountable for using chemical weapons. The yen strengthened versus the dollar as currencies from Australia to South Korea weakened.
West Texas Intermediate crude rose for the third time in four days, adding 0.6 percent to $106.57 a barrel by 10:05 a.m. in Tokyo. Brent also gained. The MSCI Asia Pacific Index slipped 0.2 percent, snapping a two-day advance as shares from Japan to Australia fell. Standard & Poor’s 500 Index futures dropped 0.1 percent after the gauge slid 0.4 percent in New York. Silver sank 1 percent. The yen gained 0.3 percent, while Australia’s dollar lost 0.5 percent. The Korean, Malaysian and Thai currencies sank at least 0.2 percent.
The S&P 500 reversed gains of as much as 0.4 percent as Kerry said President Barack Obama will hold Syria accountable for the “moral obscenity” of using chemical weapons against its people. China issues July industrial profits data today, while in the U.S., where a report yesterday showed durable goods orders fell in July for the first time since March, investors await housing, consumer confidence and manufacturing reports. Billabong International Ltd. (BBG) plunged in Sydney after posting a worse-than-expected loss and saying its brand is worthless.

Dollar Holds Loss as Traders Watch Economy for Tapering Clues



The dollar maintained a weekly decline against the euro as investors speculated over whether the U.S. economy is strong enough to support a reduction in Federal Reserve stimulus next month.
The Bloomberg U.S. Dollar Index was little changed before a report forecast to show durable goods orders fell for the first time in four months. Fed officials rebuffed international calls at a meeting in Jackson Hole, Wyoming last week to take the threat of fallout in emerging markets into account when tapering U.S. monetary stimulus. The euro was near the highest in a month against the yen before data tomorrow forecast to show continued improvement in Germany’s business climate.
The dollar was little changed at $1.3381 per euro as of 8:45 a.m. in Tokyo from Aug. 23, when it completed a 0.4 percent weekly loss. The U.S. currency bought 98.77 yen from 98.72. The euro was little changed at 132.17 yen, after reaching 132.43 on Aug. 23, the most since July 25.
The Bloomberg Dollar Index traded at 1,026.29 from 1,026.15 last week.
Orders for U.S. durable goods fell 4 percent in July from the previous month, when it increased 3.9 percent, according to the median estimate of economists surveyed by Bloomberg News before the Commerce Department releases the data today.
James Bullard, president of the St. Louis Fed, said in an interview with Bloomberg Radio that the domestic economy is the primary objective of policy. “We’re not going to make policy based on emerging-market volatility alone,” he said. An index of emerging-market stocks last week fell 2.7 percent, the steepest in two months.
In Germany, business confidence probably rose for a fourth month in August. The Ifo institute’s business climate index, based on a survey of 7,000 executives, rose to 107 from 106.2 in July, economists predicted ahead of tomorrow’s report.

Gold’s Rout Spurs Surge in Indonesian Demand



Gold jewelry demand in Indonesia is set to expand to a four-year high as consumers in Southeast Asia’s biggest buyer join India to China in increasing purchases as prices slump and the middle class expands.
Consumption of necklaces, bracelets and rings will probably climb to 40 metric tons this year, according to Iskandar Husin, secretary-general of the Indonesian Goldsmiths and Jewelers Association. That’s a 30 percent increase from 30.8 tons in 2012, and the most since 41 tons in 2009, data from the London-based World Gold Council show.

Gold fell into a bear market in April as haven demand waned and sales from exchange-traded products reached a record, spurring increased buying from India to China, the world’s two biggest consumers. President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono forecast a jump in per capita incomes this month even as stocks dropped and the rupiah tumbled. Southeast Asia’s largest economy has more than quadrupled in the past 10 years to $878 billion.

“Gold jewelry is all about lifestyle and saving,” Husin said in an interview in Jakarta. “It’s a market driven by the increase in GDP and modern Indonesian women, who are following the trends in fashion and design.”
Bullion for immediate delivery has declined 18 percent to $1,377.50 an ounce this year on concern that the U.S. Federal Reserve will taper stimulus as the world’s largest economy strengthens. The precious metal, which dropped to a 34-month low in June, has lost 28 percent since reaching a record $1,921.15 in September 2011.

WTI Crude Little Changed After Dropping First Time in Seven Days

West Texas Intermediate was little changed after dropping for the first time in seven days yesterday before government data forecast to show U.S. crude stockpiles fell to the lowest level in almost a year.

Futures slipped as much as 25 cents in New York. U.S. crude inventories probably dropped 1.25 million barrels to 359.2 million last week, the lowest since September, according to a Bloomberg survey of analysts before a report tomorrow from the Energy Information Administration. Libya declared force majeure at four oil ports after security guards initiated strike action.

WTI for September delivery, which expires today, fell 6 cents to $107.04 a barrel in electronic trading on the New York Mercantile Exchange at 9:58 a.m. Sydney time. The volume of all futures traded was about 69 percent below the 100-day average. The contract ended the session at $107.10 yesterday. The more active October future was down 3 cents at $106.83.

Brent for October settlement decreased 50 cents, or 0.5 percent, to $109.90 a barrel on the London-based ICE Futures Europe exchange yesterday. It ended the session at a premium of $3.04 to WTI futures, narrowing for a second day.

Libya’s state-run National Oil Corp. declared force majeure, a legal clause that excuses the seller from making deliveries because of events beyond its control, on crude and refined product exports from the country’s Es Sider, Ras Lanuf, Zueitina and El Brega ports, according to a document obtained by Bloomberg News.

Gold Bears Retreat as Prices Reach Two-Month High



Speculators cut bullish and bearish bets on gold simultaneously for the first time in two months as prices advanced to the highest since mid-June on signs of strengthening physical demand.

The net-bullish position rose 18 percent to 56,604 futures and options by Aug. 13, as the 17 percent contraction in short bets exceeded the 3 percent drop in long wagers, U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission data show. Net-long holdings across 18 U.S.-traded commodities expanded 23 percent as the position in silver more than doubled and investors turned positive on copper for the first time since February.

Gold tumbled a record 23 percent last quarter as some investors lost faith in the metal as a store of value. The rout spurred losses for billionaire John Paulson, who joined George Soros in selling bullion holdings in three months ended June 30, government filings showed last week. Lower prices spurred demand in India and China, the top buyers, driving global coin and bar purchases to record in the second quarter and jewelry purchases to the highest since 2008, the World Gold Council said Aug. 15.
