SHANGHAI, Dec. 6 (SMM) -- According to data released last Friday, the number of US non-farm employment increased by 39,000 in November, lower than the forecast of 140,000. The negative economic data weighed down LME zinc prices. Despite the US dollar index weakened to 80 later, LME zinc prices failed to rally and finally closed at USD 2,219/mt, down USD 40/mt. Trading volumes were 54,838 lots, and total positions slightly decreased by 61 lots to 229,151 lots. SHFE zinc prices are expected to meet pressure to rebound today.
