Commodity outlook: Buy gold on dips, sell natural gas on rise

Gold rose to the highest level in a week on Thursday, primarily on back of softening dollar. However, overall volatility for the yellow metal was low as the US market was shut on account of Independence Day on Wednesday.

Trade tensions continued to linger, with the US expected to impose tariffs on $34 billion in Chinese goods on Friday and China, in the recent past, has announced it will retaliate with its own duties on US products.

Base metals continued to crack for yet another session, with copper and zinc sliding to fresh lows as speculators stepped up selling ahead of new trade tariffs on goods from China and US which could dampen demand for industrial metals.

In energy, crude oil traded lower, losing some steam after two successive days of gains after US President Donald Trump sent tweet demanding that Opec reduce prices for crude.
