Zinc inventories in the Shanghai Bonded Zone declined

According to SMM, as of Thursday (December 19), inventories in the Shanghai Bonded Zone stood at 8,000 mt, down 600 mt WoW. The import window briefly opened and then closed during the week. Spot cargo in Shanghai remained tight, and imported zinc ingots showed a strong willingness to sell, leading to inventory outflows and a decline in bonded zone inventories.
