The Chinese market has yet to react to the news, with market participants awaiting for further developments

SHANGHAI, Jan 2 (SMM) – Several vessels carrying nickel pig iron have been deterred from leaving Indonesia, as its capital city—Jakarta—is suffering the worst flooding in years, SMM learned from a market participant.

Heavy monsoon rains have lashed Jakarta and nearby cities since New Year’s Eve, and the weather agency expects the adverse weather to last until next week, according to a Bloomberg report on Wednesday.

A Reuters report on Thursday said that flash floods and landslides in the area have killed at least 21 people and forced tens of thousands of people to evacuate.

The Chinese NPI market has yet to react to the news, with market participants awaiting for further developments to assess the impact. The news might affect Chinese stainless steel mills’ attitude towards buying NPI.

Exclusive: China's base metals output in October

China’s copper cathode output increased month on month in October, as there was basically no maintenance at smelters and as large-scale smelters maintained high production in Q4. Although domestic copper scrap was in short supply in October, smelters kept relatively ample stocks of blister copper. Furthermore, as the new secondary copper policy took effect from November 1, concerns over copper scrap supply were eased.
