Sector Commentary
Agriculturals/Softs: Grains markets declined in November as forecasts of weaker global demand for U.S. crops weighed on prices. Prices in the livestock markets rose as a result of beliefs an outbreak of African swine flu among Russian livestock would weaken global meat supplies.
Currencies: Positive economic data, U.S. investor sentiment and lower weekly jobless claims helped to drive the U.S. dollar higher against counterparts. Adding to the dollar’s rally was increased risk-aversion caused by China’s decision to raise interest rates. In Europe, the euro declined sharply on fears regarding the financial stability of the Spanish and Irish economies.
Energy: Natural gas and crude oil markets climbed last month as Energy Information Administration reports showed declines in U.S. energy inventories. Forecasts of higher demand, fostered by strong economic data in the U.S., also supported the energy markets.
Equities: Japanese equities performed well as a weaker yen bolstered growth prospects for Japanese exports. European and U.S. equity markets experienced declines due to a combination of weak earnings reports and concerns surrounding the bailout of the Irish financial system. The Hong Kong Hang Seng Index also declined as speculators believed higher interest rates in China would stall economic growth in the region.
Fixed Income: Fixed-income markets generally fell in November, as investors liquidated risk-averse debt positions early in the month. Liquidations were predominantly driven by beliefs the Federal Reserve’s newly imposed Quantitative Easing II Program would support economic recovery in the U.S. Intra-month gains in the global equity markets also played a role in moving the debt markets lower.
Metals: Prices in the precious metals markets moved higher as uncertainty about the outlook for the European economy directed investors towards safer assets. China’s decision to raise interest rates had an adverse effect on the base metals markets, moving prices lower. Also adding to the decline in base metals were declines in the U.S. equity markets which weighed on demand forecasts for industrial raw materials.
Sincerely,
David Kavanagh
