------- 2. Metal Prices Mixed; Gold Futures Regain Ground While Base Metals Fall
Metal prices present a mixed picture, with gold futures rising 0.5% to $2,482.7 per troy ounce, recovering from late Friday's profit-taking. The yellow metal reached a new record high of $2,537.7 per ounce on Friday, driven by weak U.S. economic data that bolstered hopes of a Federal Reserve interest-rate cut. However, prices subsequently dipped as investors cashed in on the rally. In contrast, base metals are experiencing declines: copper is down 0.4% to $9,047.5 per metric ton, and aluminum is down 0.1% to $2,261 per ton. Over July, base metals suffered due to sharp investor de-risking triggered by falling Purchasing Managers' Index indicators, U.S. election volatility, disappointing Chinese political meetings, and waning patience for fundamental catalysts, according to JPMorgan analysts. Despite lingering supply concerns for copper, confidence in fundamentals must be restored for base metals to rally.
