Signs of recovery? Precious metals put since Draghi speech

The markets react quickly to political change, as evidenced by the strong performance of precious metals since Draghi's speech at the end of July. However, it will take time before that reflects a global growth recovery in hard data.


Nothing is certain, but it is showing signs of recovery

ECB President Mario Draghi as promised on July 26 to do everything to save the euro, he triggered a rally. In addition there are signs of recovery in the U.S.. Last week, the unemployment rate in the U.S. fell below 8%, the lowest level since Barack Obama took office in 2009.

Before we deal with the current economic situation in the U.S. and the euro zone, we first outline our assessment of the commodities market and our tactical asset allocation. As the chart shows, the markets react very quickly to monetary policy actions. Businesses and consumers, on the other hand need a little more time. So it will probably take a month to confirm the data our assessment of a moderate global recovery.

Commodities: Copper and aluminum solid

London 07/27/12 - The industrial metals go into the weekend with gains. After a turbulent week in the markets, which ended with the release of the latest U.S. economic data, the prices are where the last week has ended.

Investors react today to the movement in the euro zone. Yesterday, ECB chief Mario Draghi had announced their intention as part of the mandate of the ECB do whatever is necessary to get the euro. Thus, Draghi has caught harsh criticism of the Bundesbank. However, should the now well below the support rocking EU members Italy and Spain through its bond purchases is an important step to convince market participants.

Today also Angela Merkel and French President Francois Hollande in a joint press release have announced that they are determined to "do everything possible to protect the euro zone."

The threatened downgrade of Germany's top credit rating from Moody's is likely Merkel have facilitated such a move.
