[Phosphorus Chemical: Wengfu Yellow Phosphorus Tuesday Tender Failed, Market Outlook Expectations Strong] August 4, 2026 – Wengfu Yellow Phosphorus’s Tuesday sales tender failed, mainly because the highest bid fell short of expectations.

Suppliers cut prices repeatedly to facilitate transactions; Shanghai spot copper premiums center shifted lower [SMM Shanghai spot copper]
[SMM Shanghai Spot Copper] Looking ahead to tomorrow, today the SHFE copper price center rose further above 107,000 yuan/mt. High copper prices significantly dampened downstream purchases, and the market was still dominated by rigid demand buying. However, suppliers’ willingness to sell strengthened, and they continuously lowered their offers throughout the day to facilitate deals. As standard-quality copper prices pulled back, downstream purchase willingness improved, and some low-priced cargoes were traded gradually. Meanwhile, available cargoes of high-quality copper and registered SX-EW copper remained scarce, with relatively firm offers providing some support to spot premiums. Overall, against the backdrop of high copper prices suppressing demand and active price cuts by suppliers to sell, Shanghai spot copper prices against the SHFE 2608 contract are expected to remain at a premium tomorrow. The overall center may continue to be in the doldrums, but improved transactions at low prices may limit the extent of further pullbacks in premiums.
