Guangdong Market Transactions Were Sluggish This Week, Spot Premiums/Discounts Declined [SMM Guangdong Spot Weekly Review]

SMM January 17 News: This week, spot premiums/discounts in Guangdong saw a significant decline, with the weekly average price down 200 yuan/mt WoW. As of this Friday, mainstream quotations for 0# zinc in the Guangdong market against the 2503 contract were at premiums of 50~80 yuan/mt, and the Shanghai-Guangdong price spread widened to 340 yuan/mt. This week, Guangdong underwent a contract rollover, and zinc prices trended lower during the week. Some traders made small purchases at low prices, but the number of downstream enterprises on holiday in the Guangdong market continued to increase, leading to persistently weakening market demand. Traders faced difficulties in selling and continuously lowered spot premiums. Next week, more enterprises in Guangdong are expected to go on holiday, making it even harder for traders to sell. Spot premiums/discounts in the Guangdong market are anticipated to continue declining.
