SMM7 March 7: most of the LME metal market is red this morning. As of 09:35, Lun zinc rose nearly 0.3%, Lun copper rose nearly 0.2%, Lun lead rose nearly 0.1%, Shanghai aluminum rose slightly red, Lunxi was flat, Lunni fell nearly 0.3%, domestic non-ferrous metals generally rose, Shanghai copper and nickel rose nearly 1.3%, Shanghai tin rose nearly 0.6%, Shanghai zinc and aluminum rose nearly 0.3%, and Shanghai lead was flat.

As for copper, as of Friday, the SMM copper concentrate index (weekly) was at $51.37 / tonne, down 12 cents / tonne from June 19. Last week, the copper concentrate market was relatively light, SMM learned that a small number of spot transactions in the 50 low, trading range has not changed significantly. However, with the gradual tension of the epidemic situation in Chile, the seller's bearish sentiment has increased, and the offer still has a downward trend in the second half of the week. The overseas back structure further widened the import loss, leading to a further decline in the Yangshan copper premium. The decline of inventory in the bonded area slows down, and there are opportunities for further growth. According to SMM research, copper inventories in the Shanghai Free Trade Zone decreased by 1000 tons to 208500 tons month-on-month on Friday. Inventories fell in the second week, but the decline slowed significantly. The upsurge of copper futures suppressed domestic consumption, and the price spread of fine waste continued to expand to more than 2000 yuan / ton, further squeezing out the demand for refined copper, superimposed by the influx of imported copper into China last week, and the inventory of the three places increased significantly.

"[SMM Analysis] the LME copper spot discount has reproduced the back structure for more than a year. Who is the driving force?

For tin, in the short term, the tight supply in the upper and middle reaches of the city will continue. On June 27, the Myanmar Central Committee for Prevention and Control of the New Crown virus announced that the control of the epidemic in Myanmar had been extended to July 15, and the shortage of tin mines in the country was expected to continue. The import of tin ore will remain at about 60% of the normal level in the short term. The tightening of production caused by tight mine supply is expected to support tin prices to some extent. Yesterday, the tin above the Shanghai Stock Exchange has broken through all the platforms of the year, approaching the high in September last year, and has broken through the Bollinger belt on the track. Since early April, Shanghai tin has been steadily moving upward near the 5-day moving average, and the rising trend has not declined. We need to continue to observe the follow-up situation. If it stabilizes effectively below, it is expected to hit a high of 143600 yuan / ton in September last year.

[SMM Analysis] Tin shares have recovered their losses over the past five months, and non-ferrous stocks have risen by more than 6 per cent, up by the daily limit of more than 6 per cent.

In terms of black, thread rose nearly 0.6%, hot coil rose nearly 0.8%, stainless steel rose nearly 0.9%, coke rose nearly 1%, coking coal rose slightly, iron ore rose nearly 3%, yesterday black commodity performance was lacklustre, RB2010 all-day shock operation, closing down 1 yuan / ton compared with the previous day, the profit effect is poor, and the heat of the stock market is in sharp contrast to the desolation of commodities. This week, many torrential rains, the opening of the sea-watching mode, and the shutdown of the college entrance examination site all had a restraining effect on demand. at the same time, the large capital inflows attracted by the stock market also diverted the speculation funds in the futures market, showing a wide shock trend of weak upside and falling resistance. It is expected that it will be difficult to have a better trend in the short term. Based on the above analysis, we believe that although the global economy is recovering recently, it has not yet returned to the level before the epidemic. Under such circumstances, liquidity will not be significantly tightened and will maintain a reasonable and abundant state, which will help to support the further strengthening of the stock market, while black demand will be difficult to significantly increase in the short term, which will restrain its performance. Short-term operations can consider choosing an opportunity to long stock index to short black. However, with the gradual removal of the factors affecting demand, driven by the stock market, black will also follow and strengthen. Of course, a sharp rise in the short-term index carries the risk of a profit sell-off correction, and a pullback in the market will provide an excellent opportunity to get on the bus.

"[SMM analysis] the performance of the commodity is lacklustre, so let's point to the short black.

The previous period of crude oil fell slightly and US oil closed largely stable yesterday as positive economic data supported oil prices, but a surge in the number of new cases in the US could dampen fuel demand and put pressure on prices.

In terms of precious metals, Shanghai gold rose nearly 0.1%, Shanghai silver rose nearly 0.9%, gold prices were supported by a sharp decline in the dollar index, and the surge in the number of new cases around the world also led to a surge in safe haven demand. however, strong stock markets and positive US service sector data have limited gold's gains.

As of 09:35, the status of contracts in the metals and crude oil markets:
