Primary lead output will edg up 1.9% to 3.2 million tonnes in 2017 and secondary lead output will expand 12% to 3.32 million tonnes, compared to 2016’s level. Global lead supply will reverse to surplus of 45,000 tonnes in 2017 from deficit.
Trade price for spot lead surged to 21,825 yuan per tonne in 2016, but the price will be hard to record such high level again in 2017. But, downstream consumption will improve in the rest of year. Uncertainties, such as capitals and market sentiment, will also affect lead price.
