Group 1: Report Information - Report Name: Copper Futures Daily Report [2] - Date: January 29, 2026 [3] - Researcher: Zhang Ping, Yu Feifei, Peng Jinglin [4] Group 2: Core Views - Copper prices rebounded after hitting the bottom. Trump's statement on the US dollar intensified the market's bearish sentiment towards the US dollar, and the market's bullish sentiment increased during the day, causing Shanghai copper to recover its overnight losses. The spot price rose by 290 to 101,660, and the discount narrowed by 25 to 240. The spot import loss narrowed to around 430. The LME 0 - 3 contango widened to 93.8. The continuous inventory build - up in the LME market led to the collapse of the local price difference structure. The C - L spread was - 6, and there was further pressure on LME inventory build - up. COMEX inventory was also rising continuously. It is expected that the pressure on the domestic and foreign spot markets will increase in the short term. However, current copper prices are more affected by macro factors. With the Fed's interest - rate meeting approaching, it is widely expected that the Fed will pause rate cuts. Trump's statement on the US dollar and the change of the Fed chairman are putting pressure on the US dollar. It is expected that copper prices are likely to rise rather than fall under the background of a weak US dollar [11] Group 3: Industry News - The Shanghai Futures Exchange announced that it agreed to register the "Jiangtong" brand Grade A copper produced by Jiangtong Guoxing (Yantai) Copper Co., Ltd. on the exchange. The registered production capacity is 180,000 tons, and the standard price is implemented. As of the announcement date, the above products can be used for the performance and delivery of the Shanghai Futures Exchange's cathode copper futures contracts [11] - A report released by Bain & Company shows that mining companies are using mergers and acquisitions (M&A) as a core growth strategy, which is driving the transaction market in Canada to reach its highest level in more than a decade. This strategic shift is due to multiple pressures faced by enterprises: continuously rising capital costs, lengthening development cycles of mining projects, and increasingly fierce market competition for high - quality mining assets. These three factors are reshaping the way mining enterprises achieve growth and improve operational efficiency. Bain & Company estimates that the number of global mining transactions with a scale of over $500 million in 2025 will increase by about 45% compared to 2024. Mining enterprises are choosing to achieve scale expansion and enhance operational resilience through mergers and acquisitions rather than investing in new greenfield development projects. The report also predicts that the next round of mining M&A transactions will be larger in scale and more complex in structure, and the success or failure of M&A operations will be a key factor in determining whether an enterprise can gain an advantage in the long - term in the industry [11]
