Yesterday's forecast zinc price: overnight Lun Zinc received a barefoot pubic column, falling below the 5 / 10 line, KDJ opening down expansion. Overnight LME inventory decreased by 275t to 122575 t, or 0.22%. The fermentation of overseas epidemic situation is a drag on the recovery of consumption, the support of superimposed fundamentals is weak, the pessimism of the market is getting stronger, and the performance of Lun Zinc is weak overnight, but overseas economic stimulus policies are constantly expected to limit the downward trend of Lun Zinc. Overnight Shanghai zinc received a negative column, the lower 20th line to provide support, MACD red column narrowed. Driven by the weakness of the outer disk, Shanghai zinc is also weak, under the background of weaker marginal consumption, downstream buying is weak, fundamental support is weak, but the macro positive will also provide support for zinc prices. Pay attention to the shipping situation of overseas mines in the near future.

 

Yesterday, it is estimated that the price of lun zinc is expected to operate in the 2060 US dollars / ton area in 2010. It is expected that the contract price of Shanghai Zinc 2008 will run in the range of 16500 Mel 17000 yuan / ton, and it is expected that domestic zinc will drop 100 yuan / ton.
