The impact of financial demand on prices is critical. In addition, BHP Billiton (BHP), the world's largest miner, said on Monday that it had signed four renewable energy agreements to provide energy support to all its Chilean copper projects from 2021, a move that would reduce energy costs by 20 per cent.

The high purchasing enthusiasm of downstream storage enterprises is low, and it is currently at the end of the lead traditional consumption season, and the demand side is weakening. Fundamentals do not have too many factors, Shanghai lead rebound is expected to be limited.
