Commodities

<li>Last month our text-mined indicators highlighted a notable raw materials restocking underway for the second time since August; this theme did not slow down throughout December, ending the month at a new high</li>
<li>Though with very little discernible impact on commodities, our indicators saw Chinese macro sentiment peak earlier in December at +3x STDEV with some momentum lost on the margin since, driven by below-consensus Chinese retail sales and home price readings, continuing in recent days on lower-than-expected NBS and Caixin PMI releases</li>
<li>In the context of USD weakness, a wildly inflationary mindset in markets and a general restocking, commodity optimism has not wavered </li>
<li>Our commodity sentiment indicators saw broader momentum in December, with already-surging copper momentum joined by crude, aluminum, uranium and nickel; iron ore and steel may be coming off the boil, but markets remain extraordinarily tight</li>
<li>Gold sentiment appears to have fully stabilized after the post-election risk-on shock</li>

TMI Indicators: Commodity Sentiment Review - Restocking On, But China Macro Momentum May Have Peaked

<ul>
<li>Following the November melt-up, we text-mine for clues on inventory restocking dynamics going into year-end</li>
<li>While references to a general inventory restocking in the global financial media are up nearly +4x STDEVs, our data suggests this is the second notable raw materials restocking wave since the recovery began, following a more robust restocking seen in August; nonetheless, the current phase is abnormal relative to typical year-end seasonality, highlighting much-anticipated pent-up demand</li>
<li>Our short-term broad commodity sentiment indicator hit +2x STDEVs, its highest reading since January, on 11/23; this followed a significant spike in China macro sentiment earlier in November, which was preceded by a multi-year record in our Copper sentiment indicator in the first half of the month</li>
<li>Current readings see continued positive sentiment momentum in palladium, copper, aluminum and crude, while negative sentiment persists in pulp, uranium and silver</li>
<li>Our sentiment picture for iron ore and steel has been obfuscated by Australia-China tensions, having turned neutral after readings of +3x STDEV and +1.8x STDEV in recent weeks; but our news attributions also identify reports of seasonally declining BF utilization and end demand in recent weeks</li>
<li>While raw materials-specific and short-cycle industrial restocking may pause in the next 6-8 weeks, the broader global finished goods restocking is likely to remain a supportive factor keeping commodities trading in tighter ranges relative to winter averages </li>

TMI Indicators: December Commodity Sentiment - Restocking into Winter on Pent-Up Demand Expectations

<ul>
<li>Our US Defense Composite Indicator is showing signs of bottoming following pre-election uncertainty; the indicator is strongly correlated with defense prime equity relative returns</li>
<li>The momentum of decline was arrested immediately post-elections as "Blue Wave" predictions failed to materialize, followed on by Biden's announcement of a relatively hawkish Pentagon transition team</li>
<li>Cyclical rotation and an October lull in Department of Defense contracting may have magnified the negative trend, but incoming data suggests the worst may be over</li>
<li>In October, our Hydrogen Economy Sentiment Indicator took a hit as the Nikola (NKLA) scandal unfolded and the GM/NKLA partnership was in doubt</li>
<li>Following some volatility in key hydrogen economy equities, our indicator surged in the MTD on a barrage of positive news flow from multiple auto &amp; truck players, as well as hydrogen infrastructure news; though "Blue Wave" expectations of a supercharged renewables push were initially questioned, the theme resumed its rally in November </li>

TMI Snapshots: US Defense Equity Sentiment Bottoming; Hydrogen Economy Sentiment Surges Again

United States

Platinum is a chemical element with symbol Pt and atomic number 78. It is a dense, malleable, ductile, highly unreactive, precious, gray-white transition metal. Its name is derived from the Spanish term platina, which is literally translated into "little silver". Platinum is a member of the platinum group of elements and group 10 of the periodic table of elements. It has six naturally occurring isotopes. It is one of the rarer elements in Earth's crust with an average abundance of approximately 5 μg/kg. It occurs in some nickel and copper ores along with some native deposits, mostly in South Africa, which accounts for 80% of the world production. Because of its scarcity in Earth's crust, only a few hundred tonnes are produced annually, and given its important uses, it is highly valuable and is a major precious metal commodity.
