FREE SAMPLE ISSUE
CRU’s Copper Monitor, published Thursday 30th May 2013, reports that the downward shift in the copper price has led to a scarcity of scrap, causing certain Chinese smelting facilities to close. CRU Principal Consultant Vivienne Lloyd writes “the rapid price fall in April prompted scrap merchants to withhold stock to avoid realising losses, which has led to tightness, particularly in China. This situation boosted cathode premiums in China, as supply was constricted and demand for cathode rose in May.”
