Copper sells under pressure.

3.12.2014

Top Day Market News

The problem with the market is that Chinese mills can’t access financing due to a credit squeeze. This has resulted so far in one corporate bond default. This could lead to a domino effect. Copper continues under selling pressure overnight as distressed sales continue. Copper is at a four year low. Crude will reverse its intermediate trend with a lower close today. Crude stocks today at 10:30. Gold has a bid on haven demand. Yen crosses are higher on risk aversion.
