On May 16, 2020, the Tsinghua Wudaokou Global Financial Forum opened online. Xiao Gang, member of the National Committee of the Chinese people's political Consultative Conference and former chairman of the China Securities Regulatory Commission, said at the meeting: China is the country with the fastest economic recovery in the epidemic. In the long run, to achieve high-quality economic development, the advantage of China's super-large-scale market is more obvious, which other countries do not have.

The release of super-large-scale market potential will form a huge supply capacity, which will effectively support short-term epidemic response and long-term high-quality development. It needs to be exerted from two dimensions: increment and stock.

Tap incremental potential: urbanization, digitization, infrastructure and so on.

Invigorate the stock: huge savings, foreign exchange reserves, state-owned assets, financial deposits and so on.

KCM Restarts Nchanga Copper Smelter After 106-Day Shutdown, Casts First Copper Anode

Konkola Copper Mines has restarted its Nchanga copper smelter in Zambia and cast the first copper anode following a 106-day shutdown. The outage was used for an extensive rehabilitation and refurbishment programme aimed at improving plant reliability, efficiency and long-term operating performance. The shutdown, which began in early June and was initially expected to last around 60 days, ultimately extended to 106 days, with the rehabilitation programme reportedly involving around US$40 million of investment. The restart restores an important part of Zambia's domestic concentrate-processing capacity after several major smelters underwent extended maintenance during the June–September period. KCM's broader recovery strategy targets copper production of around 300,000 t/y by 2030, supported by mi
