La tasa de operación de la industria de alambre esmaltado seguirá disminuyendo en junio

[SMM Shanghai Spot Copper] From a supply-demand perspective, consumption showed improvement compared to earlier. According to SMM, some suppliers reported an increase in downstream enterprise orders. Approaching delivery, the spread between the nearby SHFE copper contracts narrowed slightly. Buoyed by delivery-related support, suppliers’ willingness to hold prices firm rose somewhat, and Shanghai spot copper premiums edged up. In addition, import losses continued to widen, weakening the impetus for overseas cargo inflows, and supply-side increments were limited. Overall, supported by delivery dynamics, Shanghai spot copper quotes against the SHFE 2606 contract are expected to remain at a discount next week, with the discount possibly narrowing slightly.

Según SMM, en mayo, limitada por múltiples factores como la interrupción por las vacaciones del Día del Trabajo, la débil demanda de electrodomésticos y los precios del cobre fluctuando en niveles altos, la tasa de operación de la industria de alambre esmaltado retrocedió 3 puntos porcentuales intermensual.
