A meeting on the implementation of national standards for recycled copper and aluminum raw materials was held on July 1, indicating that the implementation of standards and relevant regulatory policies are being accelerated.

At present, the offer price of the second brand bill of lading for arrival in Hong Kong in late July is around US $95 / ton, and there is still room for price reduction.

Affected by this, the rising water in Guangdong has also fallen sharply for three consecutive days, and there is no price difference between the two places after continuous price cuts. However, due to the expectation that stocks will continue to increase in the future, the market will continue to be bearish and bearish, so the mood of receiving goods downstream is general, and trading was still poor yesterday. We expect that there is still room for decline in rising water today. Copper price and forecast: last night, Lun Copper closed at 6056 US dollars / ton, up 0.28%.
