Commodity Prices Inverse Relationship to the US Dollar

Commodities / CRB Index Oct 23, 2008 - 12:19 PM GMT

By: Donald_W_Dony

Commodities Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleThe connection with commodity prices and the movement of the U.S. dollar continues to remain tight and over-ride year-over-year fundamentals. Oil and gold are particularly linked to the currency and weakness or strength in the dollar are quickly transferred to positive or negative trading patterns for these natural resources.


Bottom line: Thought macro fundamentals play a decisive role in the longer-term direction of commodity prices, investors of raw materials, with a 1-2 year time frame, should should remain focused on the dollar's movement more than supply and demand fundamentals.

Investment approach: Current U.S. dollar strength is directly linked to a flight to safety verses fundamental considerations. Technical models are indicating the USD should continue developing upward pressure for most of November. This is expected to provide downward pressure on oil, gold and most commodity prices.
