Shanghai Copper Market to Face Ongoing Pressure Amid Slower Demand and Contango Structure
Looking ahead, the Shanghai spot copper market is expected to remain under pressure. Demand side, after the rapid rise in copper prices, orders from downstream enterprises decreased somewhat, with most enterprises still primarily making just-in-time procurement, and demand resilience remains. Market structure side, the inter-month Contango price spread between futures contracts widened slightly. Suppliers holding long positions in near-month contracts, under the contango structure, are more inclined to hold open interest for delivery rather than sell spot copper at low prices, with low willingness to sell at reduced prices and a strong willingness to hold prices firm. Overall, spot prices against the SHFE copper 2604 contract are expected to remain at current levels tomorrow.
