JP Morgan and ICBC cut metals exposure in China amid liquidity crisis

  • JPM and ICBC are cutting back on financing China’s metal trade, with at least three traders having their credit lines frozen or reduced in recent weeks, Bloomberg reports.
  • The news follows fallout from top Chinese copper trader Maike Metals, who asked the Chinese government and financial institutions for help after liquidity issues forced his company to delay payments.
  • That led to producers including BHP and Codelco diverting shipments away from the company for now.
  • Maike’s plea to the government has rocked confidence in the market and resulted in JPM and ICBC pulling back from the market, though it is not yet clear if this is temporary or permanent.

Gold slides to two-year low as US bond yields climb in anticipation of major Fed hike next week

  • Gold has settled around the $1,660/oz mark, having broken through the key $1,685/oz resistance.
  • The price of gold has fallen 4.03% since the US CPI data came in. This almost immediately priced in a guaranteed 75bp rate hike for next week from the Fed and opened the potential for a 100bp alternatively.
  • Expectations for a hawkish Fed announcement next week at the FOMC meeting were reinforced today by rising retail sales data today pointing to a relatively strong US economy.
  • Unemployment insurance applications also fell for a straight 5th week further reinforcing the narrative that the US economy remains strong, giving the Fed more room to hike rates aggressively and weakening arguments that the US economy is in the midst of a major recession as opposed to a slowdown in growth.
  • The market currently expects the Fed to hike rates to 4.458% in March 2023. This has supported a rally in US Treasury yields with the 10-Year yield currently trading at a 4-year high of 3.446%.

Higher US Treasury yields damage gold’s appeal. Investors are less likely to be drawn to non-interest-bearing gold when the US Treasury is offering them a likely risk-free annual return over 3.5%.

  • Alongside this theme, the dollar has strengthened considerably against the other major global currencies this year, correlating directly to gold’s weakness.
  • Investors currently see the US dollar as the most attractive safe haven, with global equities selling off $23tn this year, down 19% (Bloomberg).
  • The dollar index has risen 12.2% over the same period that gold has fallen c.19% from its March 2022 highs. A dollar reversal should trigger a rally in the gold price.
  • Gold’s optionality as a hedge against inflation has failed to live up to expectations so far, despite 40-year highs in Western inflation rates. Investors have likely lost patience as a result, explaining a 7.5% reduction in physical gold holdings in major global ETFs since a high in April 2022.
  • A Fed pivot should provide a bullish catalyst for gold; however, this seems several months away considering current economic data and Central Bank comments.

Copper erases gains as dollar strengthens despite stocks continuing to slide amid supply tightness

  • Copper prices fell 1.5% today to settle around the $7,600/t mark.
  • The sell-off correlates to a strengthening dollar, however supply dynamics offer bullish potential to the copper price.
  • Copper inventories on global exchanges are 60% lower than the seasonal average over the past five years.
  • Backwardation between copper spot and future prices is soaring, suggesting tight supply as traders are willing to pay a high premium for physical metal.
  • 3-month backwardation levels have extended beyond October 2021 highs when copper was trading over $10,000/t.
  • Alongside the dollar, copper prices are being held back by a major slowdown in the Chinese property sector alongside a global economic slowdown in growth.
  • It remains to be seen whether depressed supply dynamics will overpower a gloomy short-term global demand situation, however long-term fundamentals remain bullish for the metal.

Nickel prices rally on rock-bottom inventories as supply concerns persist

  • Nickel prices have jumped 7.67% this week to $23,400/t.
  • Combined LME and Shanghai nickel stocks have fallen 80% since 2021 highs and are 80% below the 5-year seasonal average.
  • Analysts have suggested that the LME nickel fiasco earlier this year has reduced trader’s appetite for storing physical nickel in LME warehouses.

  • Retail production, retail sales and investment in fixed assets all beat economist expectations last month. However, momentum continues to slow.

Battery News

Li-Ion batteries – ‘LMFP’, a new cathode chemistry which adds manganese to lithium, iron and phosphate to increase power capacity by 15-20%

  • The LMFP chemistry is reported to have entered qualification testing with a number of battery manufacturers.
  • Manganese can be further blended into the cathodes in NCM ‘Nickel Cobalt Manganese’ batteries according to Ronbay and Shenzhen Dynanonic, Chinese cathode producers. (Benchmark Mineral Intelligence)
  • The move is a natural progression for EV manufacturers who are looking for greater range and lower costs from battery packs.
  • The addition of manganese into the li-ion cathode chemistry is reported to increase energy density and lower costs for NCM batteries through a reduction in the cobalt and nickel content.
  • Reducing cobalt content is a major issue for battery manufacturers due to the uncertainty of ongoing supply and its high raw material cost.
  • “Cost is the main driver for the development of LMFP,” Albert Li, a Benchmark analyst, said.
  • LMFP batteries are reported to be already used for electric bicycles but are not yet in EVs
  • Dynanonic, plans to ramp up LMFP capacity to 440,000tpa by 2025 from 265,000t of LFP cathode this year
