Dear SMM Users,
As we approach the time to bid adieu to the old year and celebrate the Spring Festival, we adhere to the national statutory holidays and our policy of not issuing quotes on weekends. Additionally, considering the virtual absence of spot transactions during the Chinese New Year holidays, SMM will suspend updates to spot metal prices and news from February 9th to February 18th, 2024.

We are also sincerely appreciative of our industry colleagues for their persistent and invaluable feedback, guiding us towards relentless improvement and progress.

The country's metal industry, especially in the new energy vehicle and photovoltaic sectors, has continuously expanded its global footprint and market share. Moreover, Chinese businesses have demonstrated greater ingenuity and strategic acumen in navigating issues amidst international trade disputes and competition, facing the dynamic and intricate global situation with enhanced composure and confidence...

In a world of constant geopolitical flux and ubiquitous risks, we must focus on cultivating our resilience and relentlessly pursue self-improvement. Only by remaining vigilant and prepared at all times can we secure stable achievements in an unpredictable environment.
In 2024, SMM will persist in our endeavors, uniting with you all to journey toward a more expansive future!

Delivery support and resistance to high prices coexisted, while Shanghai spot copper spot premiums remained generally stable [SMM Shanghai Spot Copper]

[SMM Shanghai Spot Copper] As delivery approached, the inter-month Contango price spread remained around 300 yuan/mt, and suppliers were still willing to ship to delivery warehouses, providing strong support for SHFE copper spot premiums. Demand side, downstream enterprises maintained just-in-time procurement, offering some support to prices, but during the day some downstream enterprises showed limited acceptance of spot copper with high premiums, and procurement turned more cautious; supply side, domestic copper and previously price-locked imported cargoes continued to arrive, while social inventory remained at a high level. According to SMM, social inventory in Shanghai this week was basically flat from the beginning of the week. Overall, under delivery-driven market logic, SHFE copper spot premiums were expected to remain in premium territory tomorrow.
