Durante a semana de 20 a 23 de julho, o mercado de sucata de cobre operou sob um cenário triplo: estoques baixos de cátodo de cobre e prémios elevados, restrições contínuas de conformidade decorrentes da faturação reversa e o agravamento da época baixa de calor intenso. O preço de fecho do cobre na SHFE às 11:30 disparou de 104.180 yuan/tonelada para 106.340 yuan/tonelada, recuando ligeiramente para 106.170 yuan/tonelada no final da semana
