SHANGHAI, May 30 (SMM) – Suzhou city in Jiangsu province plans to promote the sale of 9,000 new-energy vehicles (NEVs) and to build 2,245 new charging points in 2018, according to a notice by the Suzhou Economic and Information Technology Commission on May 11. 

The promotion target was distributed to local districts including Zhangjiagang, Changshu, and Kunshan. 

In 2017, a total of 4,561 NEVs and 2,259 charging points in Suzhou were submitted for provincial subsidies, showed data from the commission. These numbers fell short of the 2017 target of 7,200 NEVs and 2,600 charging points, SMM learned. 

Separately, the Jiangxi government plans to push its annual capacity of NEVs to 500,000 units by 2020 with operating revenues of 50 billion yuan, Xinhua reported on Monday May 28. Some 260 charging stations with 100,000 charging points will be built to meet demand of NEVs by then.

Month-End Trading in the Spot Market Was Muted on Both Sides, and Suppliers Found It Difficult to Attract Buying Interest Even After Cutting Prices [SMM Shanghai Spot Copper]
[SMM Shanghai Spot Copper] Looking ahead to tomorrow, the Shanghai spot copper market is expected to remain in the doldrums. Demand side, as it is currently month-end, most downstream enterprises have basically completed their monthly procurement plans, with limited new purchasing demand remaining, and the rest mainly focused on picking up goods under long-term contracts. Therefore, there were fewer inquiries during the day and transactions were sluggish. However, on Wednesday this week, as a new monthly procurement cycle begins, coupled with stockpiling demand ahead of the Qingming Festival, downstream buyers with cargo are expected to see some increase in purchasing demand, which may provide temporary support to spot premiums at that time. Supply side, imported cargoes have continued to arrive recently, and the destocking speed of social inventory in Shanghai has slowed down, with overall circulating supply remaining relatively ample, putting some pressure on the room for discount recovery. Overall, spot prices against the SHFE copper 2604 contract are expected to remain at current levels tomorrow, and after mid-week, attention should be paid to whether increased downstream purchasing can drive a slight narrowing of discounts.
