Limited cargoes moved out of the bonded warehouses as pledged goods accounted for most of the current bonded stocks

SHANGHAI, Jun 28 (SMM) – Inventories of refined nickel in the Shanghai bonded areas remained unchanged from the previous week and stood at 15,900 mt as of Friday June 28, SMM data showed.

Limited cargoes moved out of the bonded warehouses as pledged goods accounted for most of the current bonded stocks. 

A backwardation structure in SHFE nickel in the first half of the week also prevented an inflow of imports into the bonded inventories. Some forward cargoes directly entered the domestic markets, SMM learned.

【SMM Nickel Flash】Philippines & China Weather Update (August 24, 2026)
Typhoon Saudel (locally Obet) entered the Philippine Area of Responsibility on August 24 and is moving west-northwestward, with potential impacts on the East China Sea and East China coast around August 26–27, though the track remains uncertain. For nickel logistics, Zambales/Sta. Cruz and Subic loading ports remain the key areas to watch, as heavy rain, strong winds and rough seas could cause short-term disruptions to ore loading and transportation. Surigao and other major nickel areas are expected to see limited impact. In mainland China, the East China Sea route and East China coastal ports should be monitored, as deteriorating sea conditions could temporarily affect vessel operations and port activities around August 26–27.
