On the supply side, smelters gradually went on holiday and stopped production approaching the holiday, and the import window tightened, resulting in a decrease in arrivals and a reduction in domestic copper supply. On the demand side, downstream buyers made purchases on dips when copper prices fell, and the opening of the export window provided certain resilience for domestic demand. Overall, the fundamentals of Shanghai copper may be in a stage of converging supply and resilient demand, with seasonal inventory accumulation in domestic inventories. It is expected that downstream enterprises will gradually resume work after the long holiday, driving downstream inventory reduction and boosting domestic refined copper demand [6] 2.
