SMM May 25 News: Data Brief: As of Monday, May 25, SMM copper inventories in major regions nationwide increased by 2,300 mt WoW to 245,200 mt, up 105,500 mt compared to the same period last year (139,700 mt). Specifically, imported sources in Shanghai increased somewhat, though domestic arrivals contracted simultaneously. Combined with copper prices remaining at elevated levels, downstream enterprises showed notably weakened willingness to purchase. Warehouse inflows and outflows over the weekend maintained a steady pace, and regional inventory levels remained largely unchanged. In Jiangsu, influenced by the rising trend in copper prices, downstream procurement demand was generally weak, but local domestic copper arrivals pulled back somewhat, leading to slight destocking in the region. In Guangdong, the end-use consumer market performed sluggishly, becoming the core factor behind continuous inventory accumulation, with inventory levels continuing to climb. Market outlook: Supply side, short-term import arrivals decreased somewhat, while domestic source arrivals increased, gradually easing the overall tight supply situation. Demand side, downstream enterprises generally adopted a wait-and-see attitude amid elevated prices, with market demand remaining soft. According to the survey, the copper cathode rod operating rate is expected to decline to 61.61% this week, down 0.36 percentage points WoW. Considering overall supply-demand performance, supply is marginally loosening while demand remains weak, and social inventory is highly likely to continue its inventory buildup trend in the short term.

On May 25, the SMM battery-grade nickel sulphate average price remained stable.

Platinum prices were in the doldrums today. Precious metals futures fluctuated around expectations of Voss's inauguration and a US-Iran ceasefire. In the morning session, GFEX PT2606 closed at 485.65 yuan/gram, down slightly by 0.20%, and the most-traded PT2608 contract closed at 489.5 yuan/gram, down 0.10%. The SGE Pt9995 best offer price remained persistently inverted against GFEX PT2606, with the price spread maintained at around 5-10 yuan/gram. Spot side, mainstream quotations for spot platinum premiums were basically flat compared to the previous trading day. In the morning session, traders' mainstream quotations were at parity to a discount of 2 yuan/gram against GFEX PT2606. Transaction side, according to SMM, in the morning session suppliers found it difficult to transact at parity to a discount of 1 yuan/gram against the most-traded GFEX platinum contract. Downstream buyers purchased on rigid demand with price negotiations, and some suppliers reported small volumes transacted at a discount of 2 yuan/gram for spot cargo. Most suppliers had limited room for negotiation due to the approaching delivery period, and registered warrants were generally offered at relatively high shipments prices. Overall, the spot platinum market saw subdued consumption today.
