Some Downstream Enterprises on Holiday, Trading in SHFE Copper Spot Market Sluggish [SMM Shanghai Spot Copper]
[SMM Shanghai Spot Copper] Tomorrow, spot premiums and discounts are expected to face downward pressure. During the day, copper prices rose slightly, suppressing downstream demand, and actual market transactions were sluggish; coupled with some suppliers offloading cargo, spot premiums and discounts dropped slightly. Supply side, some price-ratio locked cargoes due to earlier import arbitrage opportunities have arrived at ports for circulation, and subsequent arrivals need to be monitored. Short-term spot supply is expected to gradually increase. Demand side, as some downstream enterprises enter holidays and most top-tier enterprises have completed pre-holiday stockpiling, actual procurement demand shows a weakening trend.
