There are favorable conditions for the price of copper.
In 2019, the downward pressure on the economies of major global countries continues to increase, and internal and external uncertainties have increased significantly. The market situation of copper products has fluctuated downward, and downstream demand for copper products has been weak.
Upstream copper ore supply is in a tight state. Chile’s domestic turmoil may cause global copper ore supply to continue to be tight in 2020; domestic copper demand is relatively weak, and refining costs (TC / RC) are low, which may cause some smelting capacity to be cleared.Refined copper inventory is at a historically high level, and conditions for the price of copper prices to gradually rise have gradually formed, and the improvement in the margin of demand may bring about a rise in copper prices.
