Copper: The spot copper price in Foshan market is stable today, and trading continues to be cautious. Although the current trade situation between China and the United States shows signs of easing, there are still many uncertain factors in the short term based on Trump's reneging style. Therefore, in order to guard against risks, funds have many profitable operations after the sharp rise in copper prices, and copper prices have fallen under pressure. At present, the tight supply pattern of domestic copper market has not changed, the supply of recycled copper continues to be in short supply, and the price difference between refined copper and waste has reached the limit level, accelerating the consumption of electrolytic copper. At present, the social inventory of electrolytic copper in China continues to go to the warehouse steadily, and the sellers are reluctant to sell it to raise the premium, so the transaction is deadlocked. Short-term copper prices may maintain range volatility and pay attention to the evolution of the global trade situation.
