LME and SHFE copper will still trade in recent trading band next week, SMM predicts.

SHANGHAI, Aug. 13 (SMM) – LME and SHFE copper will still trade in recent trading band next week, SMM predicts.

The US dollar index will swing widely between 95.5-96.5 since incoming US economic data will be mixed. Crude oil will advance further to $43-45/bbl as investors will continue digesting recent positive news and positive technical side. 

In this context, LME copper will continue trading in recent range of $4,780-4,880 per tonne while searching for direction. 

SHFE 1610 copper will consolidate between 37,000-38,200 yuan per tonne, supported by ample market liquidity and strong ferrous metals prices.
