Stock

According to SMM research, the total amount of nickel inventory in Shanghai (including the previous warehouse receipt inventory) decreased by 1183 tons to 56800 tons from last week, a decrease of 2.04%, continuing the downward trend. Domestic stocks (except bonded warehouses) are about 38200 tons, including about 2200 tons of nickel beans and 36000 tons of nickel plates. Inventories fell 443 tons earlier this week, a slowdown from last week, mainly due to the arrival of Xinjiang Bofeng nickel in Changzhou Rongda, while warehouse receipts in Shanghai remained in a state of net outflow. The hidden inventory in East China is basically flat compared with last week. On the one hand, hundreds of tons of nickel plates have been cleared into the bonded area, while Jinchuan nickel has also arrived; on the other hand, transactions on the spot market this week can be completed, and downstream purchases are picked up. As a result, the increase or decrease in hidden inventories was generally flat. Shanghai Free Trade Zone refined nickel stocks of 18600 tons, due to the impact of the foreign epidemic, fewer inbound goods, inventory decline is mostly due to the export of foreign exchange goods locked by traders last week.
