Durante la semana del 20 al 23 de julio, el mercado de chatarra de cobre operó bajo un triple trasfondo: inventarios bajos de cátodos de cobre y primas elevadas, continuas restricciones de cumplimiento por facturación inversa, y una profundización de la temporada baja por altas temperaturas. El precio de cierre del cobre SHFE a las 11:30 se disparó de 104.180 yuan/tm a 106.340 yuan/tm, y luego retrocedió ligeramente a 106.170 yuan/tm al cierre de la semana.
