SMM5 June 26: the metal market fluctuated less at noon today, rising in the morning under the rising trend of chemicals such as crude oil, but then some metals fell slightly. Shanghai copper rose nearly 0.7%, Shanghai aluminum rose nearly 1%, Shanghai zinc, Shanghai nickel, Shanghai tin fell. The main driving force of copper price upward is the support of fundamentals, copper factory maintenance scale or expansion, while inventory continues to decline, spot performance is still strong. And the overseas economy restarts, foreign copper consumption is expected to pick up steadily. According to foreign mine news, the South Australian government has put on the agenda BHP Billiton (BHP) 's plan to increase copper production at the Olympic Dam Mine from 200000 tons to 350000 tons per year, and has released guidelines for the evaluation of the Olympic Dam expansion plan. Shanghai nickel funds have been evacuated substantially, nickel prices have gone up and down, and the recent macro atmosphere has turned empty. However, due to the low inventory of Ferro nickel, the supply of nickel is still tight, the price of ferronickel remains strong, and there is still a certain supporting force on the supply and demand side of nickel. the weakening of the short-term macro atmosphere makes the price of nickel weak. However, the production capacity of Ferro nickel in Indonesia has been put into production one after another, and the supply of ferronickel may gradually be in excess in the future.

Black iron ore fell 2.78%, thread fell 0.28%, hot coil rose 0.06%. Iron ore fell sharply today as data showed an increase in shipments from mainstream miners, up 4.08 million tons from the previous week, easing supply concerns. The spot price of 62 per cent grade iron ore shipped to China yesterday fell to $98.50 a tonne. The China Iron and Steel Association and major steelmakers have called for an increase in domestic iron ore production and increased exploration of untapped overseas resources to ensure supply, with short-term ore prices retreating. Thread production continues to increase and has reached a new high this year. The speed of going to the library is faster. And the two sessions are not over yet, and follow-up attention will be paid to whether there are any new favorable policies to be released.

Crude oil rose 2.31% in the previous period. The agency says U. S. shale drillers have helped the United States become the world's largest oil producer, producing as much as 13 million barrels a day at the beginning of this year. But now it may take years to reach this level again. However, as of mid-May, US crude oil production had fallen to 11.5 million barrels a day, according to the US Department of Energy. Some people expect the actual output to be lower. The recent rebound in oil prices has relieved some of the pressure on drillers, but not enough to make most new wells profitable. However, with the passage of time, oil prices tend to rise in the later stage.
