ETF Securities Weekly Flows Analysis - Precious metal ETP outflows surge as sentiment sours

ETF Securities Weekly Flows Analysis – Precious metal ETP outflows surge as sentiment sours

Highlights

  • Precious metal weekly outflows surge amidst a stronger US dollar and rising US Treasury yields.
  • WTI’s discount to Brent widens and outflows from crude oil ETPs rise for the sixth week in a row.
  • Yen ETPs remain well bid, despite the soft economic patch reported in Q1.

As WTI’s discount to Brent crude oil prices deepens, outflows worth US$5.4mn continue for the sixth week in a row. Brent prices surged to US$80 per barrel for the first time since November 2014; likely owing to the ongoing concerns of supply from Venezuela and Iran. The unsurprising overnight victory of President Nicolas Maduro at the Venezuelan election is likely to spark unrest within the nation and worsen the decline in Venezuelan oil production. Last week the International Energy Agency (IEA), showed signs of further tightening on the oil market, as oil stocks in OECD countries decreased in March to their lowest level in three years and dipped below the five-year average for the first time since 2014. The crude oil inventory reduction was aided by record high crude oil exports, as the deep discount of the WTI price with Brent is making US crude oil more attractive to the international buyers. In contrast to the inventory build reported by the API, the US department of Energy reported a 1.4 million barrel fall in US crude oil stocks. Furthermore, US oil rig count held steady at 844 last week after rising for six weeks in a row.

Gold ETPs faced weekly redemptions worth US$82.3mn, the highest level in 12 weeks. Gold prices faced significant pressure as the US dollar strengthened and 10-year US treasury yields crossed 3.112% last week. The yield differential of the 10-year US Treasuries versus the equivalent German government bonds of the same maturity widened to 250 basis point, marking its widest level in over 30 years. This points to further strengthening of the US dollar against the euro and more weakness ahead for gold prices as it fails to yield any interest, making it appear unattractive in the current rising rate environment. Meanwhile, gold’s historical role as a safe haven, may allow significant upside potential from the ongoing geopolitical risks emanating from protests in Gaza, uncertainty over the Iranian Nuclear agreement, US-China trade wars, the Korean conflict and progress from the coalition of populist Eurosceptic parties in Italy.

Gold prices declined for a time to their lowest level since the start of the year, falling below the psychologically important $1300 mark, such low levels should also encourage physical buying. Silver prices recouped some if its losses over the latter half of last week resulting in the gold/silver ratio declining to 78.5. Investors took profits as we saw weekly outflows from Silver ETPs surge to US$98.4mn their highest level since September 2017. Precious metal basket ETPs also saw US$12.3mn worth of 0utflows as sentiment toward the precious metals sector deteriorated.

Long Yen ETPs versus the Euro attracted the highest inflows in 10 weeks, last week. Following eight consecutive quarters of growth, the Japanese economy contracted in the first quarter as GDP contracted -0.6% more than consensus estimates owing to sluggish household consumption and capital spending. However strong corporate profitability, an upbeat global growth outlook and signs that wage pressures are starting to build provide evidence that the Japanese investment case still remains intact.

Are we about to enter “Hyperbitcoinization”?

Publicerad

den

• The data generally suggest that both the US and Europe may be at the cusp of mass retail adoption – a situation often referred to as “Hyperbitcoinization” in the context of Bitcoin.

• Global crypto asset adoption rates are significantly higher than previously estimated.

• The data generally suggest that both the US and Europe may be at the cusp of mass retail adoption – a situation often referred to as “Hyperbitcoinization” in the context of Bitcoin.

• Chances are that the growth of adoption will surprise to the upside due to the fact that we are most likely at the inflection point from ”Early Adopters” to ”Early Majority”.

Trump recently made a public statement implying that 50 million Americans already held ”crypto”. The most recent surveys among US consumers seem to support this number.

It is no surprise that cryptoassets have become a major topic during the US presidential election as the parties have become increasingly aware that cryptoasset users could play a significant role at the ballot.

Both Trump and Robert Kennedy Jr. are scheduled to deliver a pro-Bitcoin speech at the upcoming Bitcoin conference in Nashville over the weekend.

It seems as if cryptoasset users are not a small minority anymore that can be ignored.

Here are some recent US bitcoin and crypto adoption surveys for comparison (% of total population in brackets):

• Security.org: 93 mn (28%)
• Unchained: 86 mn (26%)
• Statista: 53.6 mn (16%)
• Morning Consult: 44.2 mn (13%)
• Finder: 38.4 mn (11%)

In general, cryptoasset adoption has been on the rise globally.

A recent global survey among institutional investors conducted by Fidelity even implies that 51% of surveyed institutional investors have already invested into cryptoassets such as Bitcoin.

Another recent consumer survey by Statista implies that approximately every 5th person (21%) worldwide has already invested into cryptoassets.

However, it’s important to highlight that among the top 10 regions with the highest adoption rates, 8 regions are developing countries.

So, cryptoasset adoption rates are even significantly higher among developing countries than in developed countries that often suffer from chronically high inflation rates and weak domestic currencies.

That being said, the data generally suggest that both the US and Europe may be at the cusp of mass retail adoption – a situation often referred to as “Hyperbitcoinization” in the context of Bitcoin.

The reason is that technological adoption in general tends to accelerate at the threshold from the so-called “early adopters” to the “early majority” which is around 16% adoption rate based on the model of technological adoption famously put forth by Rogers (1962).

Global adoption rates are already at 21% while adoption rates in the US and Europe are at around 16% and 14%, respectively. So, there is a strong case for an acceleration of adoption rates in these regions and globally over the coming years.

Recent political developments in the US also imply that Bitcoin and cryptoassets are gradually becoming mainstream.

Trump has recently endorsed domestic Bitcoin mining in the US and both Democrats and Republicans have started accepting crypto payments for campaign financing.

The big success of the spot Bitcoin ETFs this year and the fact that additional types of spot crypto ETFs are being launched marks a significant shift in sentiment among US regulators in this regard.

In short, chances are that the growth of adoption will surprise to the upside due to the fact that we are most-likely at the inflection point from ”Early Adopters” to ”Early Majority”.

Bottom Line

• Global crypto asset adoption rates are significantly higher than previously estimated.

• The data generally suggest that both the US and Europe may be at the cusp of mass retail adoption – a situation often referred to as “Hyperbitcoinization” in the context of Bitcoin.

• Chances are that the growth of adoption will surprise to the upside due to the fact that we are most likely at the inflection point from ”Early Adopters” to ”Early Majority”.
