Crude Oil was the standout gainer (+0.61%), Natural Gas recovered modestly (+2.03%), while Gold (+1.24%), Silver (+1.27%), Copper (+0.91%), and Zinc (+1.23%) all declined on 21 August. Ankit Jaiswal notes the commodity market prediction for Monday favours Crude Oil (roll to Sep) and a Natural Gas bounce, while Kunal Singla advises caution on metals.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>The commodity market prediction for Monday reflects an 18 August MCX session where energy commodities outperformed while metals faced selling. MCX Crude Oil surged +0.61% to Rs 8,353\/bbl on Iran supply fears. Natural Gas recovered +2.03% to Rs 266.40\/mmBtu from oversold levels. Meanwhile Gold fell +1.24%, Silver +1.27%, Copper +0.91%, and Zinc +1.23%. Ankit Jaiswal, Research Analyst at Univest, notes the commodity market prediction for Monday requires commodity-specific positioning given this divergence.<\/p>\n<p>Kunal Singla, Research Analyst at Univest, observes that the commodity market prediction for Monday is shaped by two themes running simultaneously: (1) geopolitical risk (Iran-Hormuz) supporting energy, and (2) broad risk-off sentiment weighing on metals. The key operational event in the commodity market prediction for Monday is the MCX Crude Oil August contract expiry on 21 August \u2014 rollover to September is mandatory. India VIX at 11.20 signals measured rather than panicked conditions across all commodities in the commodity market prediction for Monday.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-top: 24px;\"><a
