Changan Automobile (000625) on June 7 issued a public statement regarding the online Complaint Letter to the Purchasing Department of Changan Automobile. It stated that Changan Automobile has never received any "letter" from any supplier.

"Due to changes in raw material prices, changes in demand, technological innovation and other reasons, upstream and downstream companies in the supply chain negotiate supply prices every year, and that’s a conventional practice in the automotive industry. The methods adopted are all based on the business negotiations between Changan Automobile and the spare parts companies, and the settlement prices are all implemented in accordance with the business contracts signed after the negotiations. The content of "direct deduction of production value" and "direct deduction of payment for goods" mentioned in the letter is not true.”

In addition, Changan Automobile has reported the defamation of goodwill involved in the letter to the public security authority. The case is now being investigated.

Low inventories, coupled with suppliers holding prices firm, push the center of Shanghai spot copper premiums to rise continuously [SMM Shanghai spot copper]

[SMM Shanghai Spot Copper] Looking ahead to tomorrow, persistently low social inventory in Shanghai has kept available copper cathode spot cargoes tight, providing strong support to spot premiums. During the day, copper prices edged up, and the backwardation structure between delivery months narrowed to 140-170 yuan/mt, with suppliers holding prices firm and showing strong reluctance to sell. Standard-quality copper was quoted at premiums around 450-480 yuan/mt, up about 40 yuan/mt from yesterday. Downstream enterprises had limited acceptance for cargoes near 450 yuan/mt premiums, with procurement still driven by immediate needs and bids mostly around 420 yuan/mt. Traders, however, continued to trade on expectations of tight available supply, cargo circulation was relatively active, and purchasing willingness remained high. Overall, with the tightness in available supply expected to persist for the near term, Shanghai spot copper prices against the SHFE 2608 contract are expected to hold a premium, and the overall center may edge up further.
