[SMM Shanghai Spot Copper] Looking ahead to tomorrow, SHFE copper’s absolute prices continued to pull back during the day, prompting some downstream buyers to restock on dips and releasing purchase demand from traders. Market transactions improved markedly compared with yesterday. Standard-quality copper traded relatively smoothly around a premium of 350 yuan/mt, providing some support below spot premiums. Overall, with the pullback in copper prices driving the release of rigid demand and the backwardation structure providing support, but elevated premiums limiting a further rush to buy amid continuous price rise, Shanghai spot copper prices against the 2609 contract are expected to remain at a premium tomorrow, with the overall center likely to consolidate around current levels.
