[SMM Shanghai Spot Copper] Copper price center shifted upward during the day, and downstream enterprise consumption weakened. According to SMM, Shanghai spot copper remained around 106,500 yuan/mt. End-user cargo pick-up slowed down, and some copper semis processing enterprises in east China planned to shut down furnaces and cut production due to finished product inventories buildup, indicating that high prices further intensified the suppression of demand. In addition, entering the delivery month, although copper prices remained at a relatively high level, the inter-month Contango price spread between futures contracts stayed at 160-100 yuan/mt, and suppliers' willingness to ship to delivery warehouses increased somewhat. They held prices firm and held back from selling, providing some support for spot discounts. As a result, both buying and selling sentiment pulled back during the day, and actual transactions were sluggish. Overall, supported by the widening price spread between futures contracts that encouraged suppliers to hold prices firm, combined with high copper prices suppressing demand, Shanghai spot copper prices against the SHFE copper 2606 contract are expected to remain at a discount tomorrow, with limited room for the discount to widen further.
