    .
    In addition, China's refined copper imports surged 13% to 283468 tons in July, encouraged by the overall tight supply fundamentals and optimistic expectations of Chinese demand, copper prices broke the slightly "tangled" trend in the past six months, and continued to soar this week to reach a more than three-year high
    .

    Market: The spot copper market is slightly more average this week, and the domestic market has not been replenished by sufficient import sources when the import profit window is closed
    .
    Under the influence of tight market supply and bullish sentiment of holders, the margin of spot copper discount has been shrinking
    during the week.
    From the perspective of demand, the continuous rise in copper prices has made downstream demand manufacturers a little unhappy
    .
    Because the current downstream manufacturers are worried about the sharp decline in copper prices, they are very cautious when taking goods, and they hope to replenish the stock when the copper price pulls back, and then the copper price does not show the slightest sign of correction during the week, so the downstream has to enter the market to buy a small number of high-priced sources, and the overall market transaction is very limited
