2024-11-22
Copper: Today, the spot copper price in Foshan market continued to drop slightly, and market transactions continued to be cautious. The continued high operation of the US dollar index constantly put pressure on the metal market, LME copper fell below the $9,000 mark again, and the decline of SHFE copper expanded to 730 yuan in the shock. Recently, the US dollar has soared strongly, and the market is expected to go up to 110. Coupled with the escalation of geopolitical turmoil in Russia-Ukraine and the expected decline in the probability of interest rate cuts in the United States in December, the United States will launch a greater tariff war to suppress follow-up consumption, making most of the funds profitable in the short term. In the absence of more hype, SHFE copper futures continued to lighten their positions, LME copper retreated to $9,000 again, and the market was in a strong wait-and-see mood. In the second half of the fourth quarter, the shortage of funds has intensified, and it is expected that copper will still have rally pressure in the short term.
