Base metals fell in the local non-ferrous market today due to tracking weak global cues. Trading sentiments also weakened on the back of profits booking by the speculators on subdued industrial demand. Nickel future for March contract fell as much as 4.41% to Rs. 1,187.70 per kg on the Multi Commodity Exchange (MCX). While, Zinc future for March contract dropped 3.40% to Rs, 104.85, and Lead for March contract dropped 2.01% to Rs. 114.55 per kg on MCX.

By Shyam Advisory : At Shyam Advisory (SA), Nickel future for three month delivery fell 2.5% to $26,803 a ton, while Zinc declined 0.2% to $2,553 a ton on speculation that persisting unrest in Libya will hamper the global economic growth, reducing demand for industrial metals. Moreover, lead for three month delivery also dropped 1.7% to $2,340 a ton at LME.

Moreover, the concern about rising inflation due to higher crude oil price, traded above $100 per barrel, increased the speculation that China and European Union will tight the monetary policy in order to curb the inflation. Therefore, any tightening of monetary policy further by the People Bank of China and ECB could create a downward risk over base metals as demand for industrial metals will slowdown.
