Some traders showed purchase interest at around a discount of 11 yuan/g against the Guangzhou Futures Exchange, and a small volume of deals was concluded as futures rose toward the end of the morning session. Downstream enterprises negotiated deals based on order conditions, and some enterprises reported fewer orders today, with overall spot market transactions remaining subdued.
