SMM Daily Review - 2011/12/6 Tin Market

Dec 7, 2011 08:48

Shanghai spot tin prices saw further losses on December 6th as weakness in demand lasted.

SHANGHAI, Dec. 7 (SMM) – Shanghai spot tin prices saw further losses on December 6th as weakness in demand lasted. Mainstream traded prices of Yunxiang, Nanshan, Kaiyuan and Lvsexinan branded tin were between RMB 161,500-162,000/mt. Yunheng and Yunxi branded tin mainly traded between RMB 164,500-165,000/mt. China tin prices dropped rapidly starting from last week and lost RMB 8,000/mt on a weekly basis as of Tuesday. Besides weak demand, goods movements at lower prices by both some smelters and traders were also causes of such rapid drop. At present the metal is expected to test support at the RMB 160,000/mt mark.

Wider spot discount failed to boost purchases

Spot premiums in Shanghai rose to 70 yuan/mt on February 18 from zero ahead of CNY due to costs during CNY holidays. However, spot premiums turned into wide discounts as of February 25 as SHFE copper prices surged, which stood at around 250 yuan/mt, a decline of nearly 460%. This signified that investors were selling aggressively to generate cash amid cash flow issues. Downstream inquiries were brisk but sellers refrained from lowering their quotes, with spot discounts stabilising between 150-140 yuan/mt.
