[SMM Brass Billet Flash] Next week (6.26-7.2), demand in the traditional off-season is still unlikely to see a substantial recovery. Amid copper price fluctuations, end-users remain cautious, and orders are unlikely to rebound significantly. SMM expects that next week, the operating rate of brass billet will edge up 0.29 percentage points WoW to 51.02%, with industry production remaining under pressure at low levels.
