    Commodities Monthly

    Industrial metals to ease or dive?=

    General Forecast: 0-3 M , 4-6 M , 7-12 M Commodities demand to stay robust due to the global economic

    recovery but expect downside price corrections Many options to boost activity again if China tightens too far, thus

    avoiding extended commodity price slumps

    Ample stocks will prevent the price of most commodities frommoving into exponential territory in the short term

    Energy Forecast: 0-3 M , 4-6 M , 7-12 M After early April strength Brent crude traded sideways, ending the

    month 5.0% higher at $87.44/b European air traffic paralyzed by volcanic ash from the Icelandic

    eruption exerted pressure on jet fuel demand in mid April Despite bearish fundamentals, crude oil upside risk remains in

    Q2-10 as the seasonal stock downtrend starts and recoveryoptimism continues to drive funds into derivatives

    We expect a return to OPECs USD 70-80/b range in Q3-10

    Industrial Metals Forecast: 0-3 M , 4-6 M , 7-12 M Prices increased to within 10% of its 08 record highs in mid-April Chinese efforts to cool the property sector and Goldman Sachs

    fraud allegations pressured industrial metal prices in April LME stocks were largely stable although nickel and tin stocks fell Increasing forward selling of industrial metals signalled that the

    sector is becoming overvalued

    Precious Metals Forecast: 0-3 M , 4-6 M , 7-12 M In April gold was supported by a deteriorating European

    sovereign debt situation as the Greek crisis reached a criticalpoint and PIIGS debt was further downgraded

    Interest rates in western countries remained low while inflationthreatened in Asia, both factors bullish for gold

    Gold prices are unlikely to fall below USD 1100/ozt until a long

    term solution to PIIGS debt is found, upside risk is substantial Palladium once again outperformed the sector on strong investor,

    jewellery and industrial demandAgriculture Forecast: 0-3 M , 4-6 M , 7-12 M In April agricultural commodity prices increased substantially for

    the first time this year Indications of a recovery in demand and a slightly bullish WASDE

    report from the USDA supported the main crops (corn, wheat andsoybeans) helping to relieve previous deeply bearish sentimentdue to ample stocks and favourable weather

    US planting progressed rapidly but planting is a sensitive period Mixed development in soft commodities; cocoa and cotton

    advanced while sugar and coffee fell backArrows indicate the expected direction of the price change during the specific period.
