ドイツ年末年始

India’s BSE Sensex rose about 0.4% to open at 77,977 on Wednesday, following gains in the previous session, as falling crude oil prices eased concerns over inflation and corporate margins, while hopes of a reopening of the Strait of Hormuz lifted investor sentiment. Brent crude fell about 2.7% to around $86.20 a barrel. Investors, however, remained cautious amid global uncertainty, with markets also tracking US tech stocks ahead of Nvidia’s results and movements in global bond yields. Domestically, investors are weighing signs of a moderation in India’s economic growth, with Q2 GDP data due next week and growth expected to ease to 7.1% from 7.8% in Q1. Markets are also watching signals from the RBI after recent communication on monetary policy and meeting minutes raised questions among investors about the central bank’s policy stance. Notable gainers included Hindustan Copper (2.8%), Netweb (2.0%), Hindustan Zinc (4.2%), Cyient (6.9%), and BSE Ltd (1.6%).

Sensex Rises as Oil Prices Fall

Copper futures climbed above $6.7 per pound on Wednesday, reaching a new all-time high as supply-side risks persisted despite a recent easing of the market squeeze. Traders continued to divert shipments toward the US amid elevated premiums and expectations of new tariffs under the Trump administration, with the White House yet to make a final decision on the matter. Copper inventories in warehouses tracked by the London Metal Exchange have fallen by almost half since mid-May following a 42-day streak of declines. Elsewhere, Zijin Mining warned that flooding at the Kamoa-Kakula copper complex in the Democratic Republic of Congo could cut its share of production by as much as 57,000 tons this year, underscoring ongoing risks to global supply. On the demand side, Chinese smelters have faced difficulties securing feedstock, increasing the need for imports.

Copper Hits Fresh Record High

Corn futures jumped above $5 per bushel, hitting their highest level since July 2023 as mounting concerns over US crop yields pointed to tighter supplies. The Pro Farmer Crop Tour recently estimated the 2026 US corn yield at 173.2 bushels per acre, well below the USDA’s latest forecast of 180.7 bushels, while production was projected at 15.34 billion bushels. The bearish supply outlook was reinforced by the USDA’s latest crop report, which showed the share of corn rated good-to-excellent falling three percentage points to 57% for the week ended August 23. Weather remains a key concern, with heat stress and excessive rainfall affecting parts of the Midwest and potentially limiting yields ahead of harvest. Meanwhile, US corn export inspections remain strong, with cumulative shipments up 26% from a year earlier despite a recent easing in weekly shipments to 1.3 million tones. Elsewhere, disruptions to Black Sea grain shipments continued to raise concerns over global supplies.

Corn Hits 3-Year High on US Crop Concerns

Malaysian palm oil futures extended losses, trading below MYR 4,900 per tonne and touching their lowest level in a week as traders returned from a holiday. Sentiment was pressured by a stronger ringgit and weaker soyoil prices on the Chicago market, while crude oil fell on renewed hopes that the Strait of Hormuz could reopen. Demand concerns also weighed, with cargo surveyor Intertek Testing Services noting that palm oil product exports for August 1–25 dipped 20% from the same period in July. Ample supplies added to the bearish tone, as Malaysian palm oil inventories climbed to a five-month high in July. Separately, exports by top grower Indonesia fell 9.2% yoy in June, according to palm oil association GAPKI. Still, losses were capped by firmer Dalian soyoil prices. Concerns that a developing El Niño could intensify dryness and curb output in Indonesia and Malaysia also provided support, along with Indonesia's planned full implementation of its B50 mandate from Oct 1.
