    from last week.

    for the second consecutive month.

    higher than the import volume of 436,030 tons in May 2020.

    .
    The wait-and-see mood is strong, downstream consumption is general, and traders are mainly
    circulating.

    Market research and judgment: upstream domestic copper mine inventories continued to rise significantly, copper ore processing fees TC steadily rebounded, indicating that the tension in copper mines has improved, but South American copper mine strikes and policy risks still exist
    .
    Refined copper production remained stable as crude copper supply increased and sulphuric acid prices rose, easing cost
    pressures.
    At present, the downstream is mostly bargain-hunting, demand performance is flat, domestic inventories maintain a downward trend, and copper prices have fallen into adjustment
    .
    Technically, the 20-day moving average of the Shanghai copper 2107 contract turned downward, and it is expected to fluctuate
    at a short-term low.
