Bullion held by the People's Bank of China was unchanged at 72.80 million troy ounces in May, according to data released Friday. China is the world's biggest consumer of the precious metal. China, a major driver behind gold's rally in the past year, is nowhere near done buying gold, but the pause also highlights they are balking at the prospect of paying record prices, Saxo Bank's Ole Hansen said. \"Overall, gold is still consolidating, and the news will likely prolong that phase, but overall the long-term bullish outlook has not changed.\"  Furthermore, in case of a weak jobs report today, and with that increased focus on U.S. rate cuts, \"we could see ETF investors pick up the baton that the PBOC temporarily, in my opinion, has dropped on the floor,\" Hansen added. Turning to base metals, copper's rally cooled after the May rally. BMI – A Fitch Solutions Company noted that the anticipated decline in the U.S. dollar strength in the second half of the year could provide a tailwind for copper prices. A later Fed cut could, however, limit the extent of price growth for base metals, including copper, in 2024, it added. Investors also took note of major metals' buyer China's economic data. The country's refined copper imports rose above 500kt despite higher inventories, but concentrate imports dropped 11% y/y, ANZ reported.  Iron ore imports were above 100mt for the third consecutive months. This is despite weaker steel production and a counter-seasonal rise in iron ore inventories, it added. Crude oil imports dropped 9% y/y to 47mt, albeit volumes were higher than last month. ANZ in a separate note said, Aluminium is likely to outperform other base metals as supply risks worsen.
