Base Metals are trading higher today a strong Chinese trade data which showed that exports grew at the pace of 8.1% whereas imports were
up 18.7% in dollar terms. Chinas September trade surplus was $28.47 billion which is also at its lowest since March.
While, base metals are being supported by supply-side issues and an overall bullish sentiment, the strong set of trade data from China should
also boost prices as we head in next week.
Crude Oil is trading higher after the Paris based IEA said in its monthly report that the oil market is on its way to rebalancing despite the
recent supply woes.
IEA said that the oil demand has been relatively strong in the previous quarter and supply has been restricted partly due to effects of hurrica-
-nes in the US and due to efforts from Saudi and the OPEC to reduce supply in the global market.
The intraday bias and the short term trend continue to remain positive. Technically, a close above resistance at Rs.3360 should boost prices
higher to Rs.3380-Rs.3400 in the short term.
