    Overn igh t Them es Commodity markets that were closedover the Easter Holidays are expected to soften after market

    sentiment took a hit on Friday night. A much weaker-than-

    expected US non-farm payrolls result and concerns that Spain

    would be the next in line to receive a bailout set a negative

    tone. The US 10-year yield has fallen sharply and peripheral

    European bond yields continued to rise. US non-farm payrolls

    rose by 120k in March (mkt: +205k) but the unemployment

    rate fell 0.1ppts to 8.2% alongside a decline in the participation

    rate. Warmer weather likely boosted jobs during the Jan/Feb,

    while the March outcome potentially reflected an unwinding of

    seasonal factors. However, we note that employment gains of

    around 200k are consistent with a broad range of employment

    lead indicators and we expect that jobs growth will bounce back

    to this pace over the next few months. In China, CPI inflation

    for March printed a touch higher than market expectations at

    3.6% y/y (mkt: 3.4% y/y), which could also dampen market

    expectations for further cuts in policy. Our colleagues in China

    believe a RRR cut could be postponed until May or June.

    Crude benchmarks dec l ined s l igh t ly , reacting to the weakUS employment data on Friday and reports of a meeting

    scheduled between Iran and the West over their nuclear

    program. Front-month WTI crude oil fell to the lowest level

    since February, before rebounding into the close. Although

    Brents premium over WTI remained above the US$20/bbllevel. Oil prices fell over 2% for the week after US FOMC

    minutes lowered expectations of further easing, but the

    disappointing employment read could reignite this case,

    potentially supporting crude markets going forward.

    Go l d f i r m e d b y 0 . 5 % t o U S$ 1 , 6 4 0 / o z on a weaker USdollar, but the weekly average remained in negative territory.

    Safe-haven bids could have been reinstated, but it is likely that

    prices were supported by hopes of US policy easing after

    weaker than expected US employment data. Gold could also

    receive a boost this week as Chinas real interest rates turned

    negative again, but an uncertain inflation outlook implies the

    PBoC will remain cautious in its policy operations.

    Base met a ls were c losed for ho l idays , but prices willpotentially remain under pressure during trade today after a

    triple whammy of weaker US data, Spanish sovereign risk, and

    an uncertain inflation outlook in China (potentially lowering

    expectations of further monetary policy easing). This week the

    major Chinese economic indicators will likely influence

    direction. Today, we expect Chinese trade data for March to

    show a surplus of US$9.6bn (mkt: US$3.15bn deficit) on

    improving demand from the US and emerging Asia.

    Newcas t l e spo t coa l p r i ces s t r eng t hened t o US$106 / t ona week ly bas i s, but activity was quiet ahead of the Easter

    Holidays. Indias state-owned utility NTPC announced a 5mt

    5,800-6,500kcal/kg coal import tender with supplies to be

    completed within four months from July 2012. We could see

    some near-term upside from India, with local coal customer

    stocks tighter on the ground than in China.
