SMM Daily Review - 2012/2/29 Tin Market

Spot tin prices narrowed further to RMB 174,000-175,000/mt in Shanghai on Wednesday while trading stayed light.

SHANGHAI, Mar. 1 (SMM) – Spot tin prices narrowed further to RMB 174,000-175,000/mt in Shanghai on Wednesday while trading stayed light. Yunnan tin brands dominated the market while Jiangxi brands were hardly seen. Yunxiang and Yunshan branded ingots struck deals between RMB 174,000-174,500/mt and Yunxi and Yunheng concluded transactions between RMB 174,500-175,000/mt. Though downstream demand stays weak, market supply is on the decrease. That is due to smelters’ lower selling interest caused by stagnation of the high end price. Light trading is still the predominant scene during recent days.

Analysis

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.
