【SMM Copper Inventory Flash】National mainstream copper cathode inventories recorded 207,400 mt, up 1,400 mt WoW from last Thursday, with regional trends diverging. Shanghai and Jiangsu continued destocking, supported by a pullback in copper prices and recovering downstream demand; in Guangdong, weak end-use demand, combined with a notable increase in arrivals, led to a sharp inventory buildup.
