SMM5, March 7: non-ferrous metals generally rose in the morning as domestic demand continued to expand and some countries around the world restarted economic activity to stimulate demand. A few days ago, the State Council stressed the implementation of the strategy of expanding domestic demand, promoted the recovery of consumption, accelerated the construction of major projects, and made good use of investment in the central budget and special debts of local governments to strengthen the market.

Shanghai nickel soared after news that local media in Indonesia had updated information on the follow-up to the previous worker demonstrations at the WedaBay Nife industrial park, which did not appear to have an impact on the continued operation of the plant and nickel supply. But the emergency still worries the market about supply. Moreover, Suriname, which has the largest shipments in the Philippines, will resume shipments one after another in mid-May, and the tightening pattern of nickel ore supply will gradually ease in the later stage. The price of nickel is short-term or volatile, and the recovery of downstream demand will be concerned in the later stage.

And at present, the supply of the mine end is tight and the maintenance of the superimposed smelter is increasing, and the market is worried about the supply of refined zinc.
Black series generally rose more than 1%, of which the main thread since the end of last month all the way high, today thread 10 about 3400 open, during which it broke through the recent 3430 pressure level. The main reason is that demand exceeded expectations, inventory maintained a decline, and some special debt can be used to stimulate demand for shed reform projects, superimposed loose monetary policy is beneficial to downstream consumer demand. On the iron ore side, considering that there is still room for upward operation of blast furnaces in domestic steel mills in May, coupled with the strong demand for steel mills in the state of low inventory, import ore prices are still driven upward in the short term; however, as shipments from Australia and Brazil continue to pick up in the near future, the pressure on the supply end is expected to become more prominent in the later stage, still suppressing prices to a certain extent.

China imported 170 million tons of crude oil from January to April, up 1.7 per cent, with the average import price falling 8.9 per cent to 2906.7 yuan a tonne, according to data released by the General Administration of Customs on Thursday.
