SMM Webinar Series: Hype or Fundamentals- Which is driving metals prices today?

As the situation of COVID-19 eases in China, SMM is pleased to welcome back our industry participants to our metals conferences, where we gathered and shared the latest updates on the China metals industry.

At the conferences, speakers gave their insights and near to mid-term forecasts on the metals markets. For instance, Our copper analysts have projected a 450,000 mt Cu reduction in copper ore output which is caused by the pandemic.

On the other hand, China’s imports of cobalt raw materials are expected to fall 4% year on year to 86,000 mt in metal content this year, amid the uncertainty around raw materials supply from Africa. China’s primary nickel market will be in a wide surplus this year, given the aggressive nickel pig iron (NPI) capacity expansion in Indonesia.

In this three part webinar series, our analysts will share their views on the trending topics across the China domestic ferrous, non-ferrous and new energy sectors during this unprecedented period.
