Last Friday, LME lead prices overnight edged down from USD 2,700/mt after opening.

SHANGHAI, Aug. 1 (SMM) -- Last Friday, LME lead prices overnight edged down from USD 2,700/mt after opening. As the market was still cautious due to the pending US debt ceiling issue, LME lead prices plummeted to the 30-day moving average due to falling US stocks during European trading hours, with prices finally closing at USD 2,622.3/mt, down USD 49/mt, or with a drop of 1.83%. LME lead prices should fluctuate between USD 2,600-2,675/mt today.

The US dollar index surged then dropped to close at 73.741.

SHFE lead prices should move between RMB 17,050-17,150/mt today.

The power rationing in Yunnan, Henan, and Hunan since July-August and the power rationing in Jiangxi and Guangxi in September are undoubtedly the current hot spots. According to a recent SMM survey, the power rationing in Jiangsu, Guangdong and other regions in China has continued. Since late September, the social inventory of lead ingots has declined due to the combined effects of losses, power rationing and environmental protection.
