【SMM Data】SMM December 8th News: According to SMM research, as of this Friday (December 8th), the total inventory of zinc ingots in seven SMM locations is 82,300 tons, a decrease of 5,600 tons from December 1st and a decrease of 3,400 tons from December 4th. Domestic inventory has decreased. Shanghai's inventory decreased during the week, mainly due to low zinc prices, increased downstream stocking at low prices, and relatively few arrivals during the week, leading to reduced inventory. It is expected that next week, imported zinc ingots will flow in to supplement the market, and market supply may increase; in Guangdong, due to an increase in factory withdrawals and fewer arrivals at warehouses, inventory continued to decrease; inventory in Tianjin increased due to increased market arrivals and increased downstream purchasing, resulting in a slight increase in inventory. Overall, the original three locations' inventory decreased by 2,400 tons, and the inventory of seven locations decreased by 3,200 tons.
