In the afternoon, Lun copper tried to push up to $6060, but ran out of momentum and fell back again. After entering the European trading session, Lun Copper hit an intraday low of 6017 US dollars / ton, and the bulls increased their positions by about 25 US dollars, hindered by the first line of 6042 US dollars / ton. Lun Copper closed at 6028 US dollars per ton, down 65.50 US dollars per ton, or 1.09 per cent, as of 17PUR 00. The unemployment rate in the United States was 11.1% in June, down 2.1 percentage points from the previous month, and the number of initial jobless claims in the week ended June 27 was lower than the previous value. However, affected by the news of new crown infection cases in the United States, the sustainability of the improvement in employment data is in doubt. Near the weekend, during the US Independence Day holiday, investors' risk aversion improved, and bulls left the market dragging down the copper price correction. At present, Lun copper negative, KDJ opening downward, but the bottom is still supported by the 5-day moving average. In the evening, we will pay attention to whether the bulls can make further efforts to push Lun Copper up again.

The weekly increase of money supply M1 and M2 announced in the United States today is limited, the effect of economic stimulus measures is gradually dissipating, the pace of US economic recovery is slowing, the downward pressure is increasing, and the market macro sentiment is cautious, which forms a certain resistance to the upward price of copper. From a fundamental point of view, the impact of the South American epidemic on Chilean copper production has not been obvious. The Chilean Copper Commission (Cochilco) showed that Chilean copper production increased by 3.7% from January to May 2020, easing the pessimistic mood of tight supply the day before yesterday. Social inventories rose 37300 tons month-on-month to 199300 tons on Wednesday, the first increase in recent months, leading bulls to cut positions and driving copper prices down, according to a survey by SMM. Today, Shanghai copper overcast, MACD red column narrowed, but below there is still a 5-day moving average to support the bottom, copper prices upward pattern has not been destroyed. Wait for the outer disk guidelines in the evening to test whether the bulls can continue to make efforts to help copper prices gain momentum again.

Pingshui copper water rose 10 yuan / ton, good copper water 20 yuan / ton, it is difficult to lower the price, and it is difficult to raise again. Today, good copper and water copper are concentrated in the range of 20 yuan / ton from Pingshui to litre water, and the downstream just needs to buy, the supply of wet copper is increased, and there is a big difference between brands, and the quotation is slightly lowered to 50 yuan / ton to 30 yuan / ton. some poor brands of wet copper stickers can be as large as 70 yuan / ton or more. After the second trading session, the market plummeted by about 300 yuan / ton, the market inquiry atmosphere was active, there was a willingness to buy at a low price, and the performance of the holder was more persistent, trying to hold up the rising water level. therefore, the outflow of goods in circulation in the market today is less than that of yesterday, which makes it difficult to lower the price today, and the performance of rising water is stable for the time being.
