    At present, the supply of domestic copper mines is tight, resulting in the suppression of electrolytic copper production; And with the gradual recovery of demand, Hulun copper stocks continue to deteriorate, forming a support
    for copper prices.
    However, the uncertainty of the global pandemic remains; As well as the recent widening of the refined waste price spread, the substitution role of copper scrap has increased, limiting the upward momentum
    of copper prices.
    In terms of spot, traders entered the market to buy at the dip, ushering in a wave of positive replenishment, and the transaction was acceptable
