The domestic social inventory increased by 18,000 tons during the holiday, and the positive structure of the near - month contract on the disk is expanding, so the spot premium is expected to be under pressure. The LME 0 - 3 contango structure has narrowed to 29.5, LME inventory has dropped to 139,000 tons, and COMEX inventory has increased to 304,000 tons, and the spot pressure in the overseas market is easing [7][10] Group 5: Industry News - Japan's PPC expects its copper production in the second half of the 2025/26 fiscal year to decrease by 2.5% year - on - year to 287,400 tons, and Mitsubishi Materials Corporation will reduce the concentrate processing volume of its Onahama smelter by about 25%, which means a reduction of about 75,000 ore tons in the second half of the fiscal year [11] - Aurubis has raised the long - term premium for electrolytic copper in Europe in 2026 to $315 per ton, a record high [11] - Teck Resources' Quebrada Blanca copper mine has extended its suspension due to a tailings dam heightening project.
