Copper, gold, oil react to April CPI: Commodities check
Copper futures (HG=F) are in the midst of a short squeeze, making record gains over the past several trading days. Although, copper prices are beginning to slide Wednesday morning. The shortage has caused the precious metal to be rerouted from other regions to the US. Crude oil prices (BZ=F, CL=F) tick down as the International Energy Agency (IEA) lowered its demand growth forecast for this year, citing weaker gas-oil consumption. Lastly, gold (GC=F) has surged after the release of April's CPI data this morning, revealing inflation to have come in-line with annual expectations and giving credence to the theory that the Federal Reserve may move towards cutting interest rates. Yahoo Finance Senior Markets Reporter Jared Blikre joins Morning Brief to break down the latest numbers for these commodities.
