SHANGHAI, Sept. 29 (SMM) – Base metal prices on the SHFE are expected to drop across the board on Sept. 29 after Glencore’s shares tumbled, Shanghai Metals Market foresees. 

“Recent news from Glencore has triggered market worries over the outlook for the commodity, so bearish sentiment prevails,” SMM says. 

Moreover, poor economic data from China leave market concerns unchanged over its slow growth, also weighing down the Shanghai market.
