Market sentiment will be dragged down by Chinese shares and crude oil prices and lead prices should face upside pressure amid bearishness.

SHFE 1603 lead should range RMB 12,500-12,750/mt on Jan. 12 and Chinese downstream buyers build some stocks and overall supply stays insufficient. But medium and small buyers plan to take vacation ahead of schedule and supply and demand are left balanced. Spot lead will trade at RMB 12,950-13,050/mt.

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.
