Nickel Spikes After Report of Indonesian NPI Production Cut Nickel prices spiked following a report of further output cuts in Indonesia, the top producer of the metal. Futures surged as much as 2.6% to $19,050 a ton on the London Metal Exchange after Shanghai Metals Market reported that 10% to 15% of high-grade nickel pig iron capacity at Indonesia Weda Bay Industrial Park will be placed under rotational maintenance in the coming months. Some NPI production, used to make stainless steel use, has been curtailed since March and April due to a drop in ore supplies and high costs, SMM said, without citing anyone. The reallocation of power resources to new aluminum capacity has worsened the situation, the research firm said. (Bloomberg)

The US Dollar and oil prices have never moved this closely together: The 60-day correlation between Brent crude oil prices and the Bloomberg Dollar Spot Index is up to 0.55, the highest since the index was launched in 2005. A reading above 0.50 has only occurred once before, in late-2025. This positive relationship emerged in early March, following the outbreak of the Iran war, and has persisted since. Historically, the two move in opposite directions, as most oil is priced in US Dollars globally and a stronger US Dollar makes crude more expensive for foreign buyers, weighing on demand. Meanwhile, the Bloomberg Dollar Spot Index has closed higher for 5 consecutive sessions, while Brent crude has closed up in 4 of the last 5. Geopolitics are redefining the US Dollar and oil markets.
