Commodities Snapshot: Oversold For Now, Dollar Holds The Key

Below are trading range charts for 10 major commodities from the Bespoke Group. All 10 commodities are currently at or below the bottom of their trading ranges, which would suggest at the moment, a good opportunity to get in at oversold levels for investors looking to gain long-term exposure.

However, U.S. dollar has been strengthening as investors fled the Euro debt and financial crisis seeking safety in the dollar. Since most commodities are priced in dollar, dollar movement will have considerable impact on commodity prices. EconMatters guest author, Frank Holmes at US Global Investors, estimates thata 5% appreciation in the dollar could be associated with a 25% decline in commodity prices, based on the relationship between the CRB Index basket of 19 commodities and the Dollar Index.

So if the U.S. dollar continues to strengthen, which is quite probable with the burning Athens, and the lack of leadership and clarity in the Euro Zone, it would most likely put downward pressures on commodity prices.

But on the other hand, the U.S. Federal Reserve has already telegraphed the intention of yet another round of quantitative easing (QE3). So the effect on the dollar, and thus commodities, would depend on how QE3 is implemented. We suspect that the Fed now understands how QE2 has artificially jacked up commodity prices as well as inflaiton (although they will never admit it in public), and most likely will strive for a “commodity neutral” QE3.

However, if QE3 does translate into a similar effect to QE2, then commodities would be artificially inflated even further, which would suggest stagflation, and hyperinflation could be expected in most of the developed countries, and developing economies, respectively.
