Silver friday bnsAnalysis and Recommendations:

Silver eased by 72 cents to trade at 21.423 as precious metals remained in the red after tensions in Syria continue to ease. Industrial metals are also trading in the red, with copper  trading at 3.205 down 5 pips. Copper prices fell on Thursday as reduced risk appetite ahead of the Fed policy meet next week hurt base metals. Euro zone industrial production fell by 1.5% in July which raised demand concerns from the region and pushed prices further down. Weak Japanese machinery orders and lower US unemployment claims also put pressure on prices. Traders can expect Copper to remain in range to lower as investors would await US retail sales, PPI and consumer sentiment data to get more clarity about the economic recovery in US and Fed’s action. The Federal Open Market Committee will decide to reduce monthly purchases of Treasuries to $35 billion from $45 billion, according to the median of 34 responses in a Bloomberg survey of economists. Policy makers will maintain mortgage-bond buying at $40 billion, the survey shows.

Base Metals on LME traded on mixed note on the expectations among the market participants that the US Federal reserve may start reducing bond buying program soon coupled with mixed LME inventories. Further, rise in risk aversion in the global markets kept prices under pressure. However, strong economic data from globe along with the weakness in DX cushioned sharp fall in the prices. LME Copper decreased by 1.31 percent on weak global market sentiments along with unfavorable economic data from eurozone added downside pressure on the prices.
