After the economic recovery in the first quarter exceeded expectations, the recent macroeconomic indicators have fallen in an all-round way, and the prospect of recovery has arisen market concerns. In recent days, macro policies have continued to increase their efforts and improve their efficiency in order to stabilise market expectations and growth.

Zheng Shanjie, director of the National Development and Reform Commission, wrote an article a few days ago and pointed out that the foundation for the continued overall improvement of domestic economic operation still needs to be consolidated.   China also rolled out monetary policy.

The People’s Bank of China increased the amount of re-loans and re-discounts for supporting agriculture and small businesses by a total of 200 billion yuan.

Copper Scrap Payability Coefficients Hold Exceptionally Firm as Supply-Demand Mismatch Defies Traditional Market Logic
In May, copper prices surged before retracing, yet copper scrap payability coefficients remained exceptionally firm. Transactions for Millberry stabilized at a high level of 98.5%, while No. 2 copper became the market highlight, with its coefficient climbing from around 95% to 96%–97% due to the premium upside of its gold and silver by-products. Driven by stricter domestic policies and tax compliance, China demand remained robust. Conversely, tight overseas scrap supply persisted, and this structural mismatch kept import payability coefficients elevated and sticky for the short term. Under the current landscape of tight global supply and resilient demand, the traditional market logic of "surging copper prices driving down payability coefficients" has effectively become obsolete.
