    。 Entering April, the market spot all including VAT 13% invoice quotation, morning market holders quotation is high, quotation premium 20 ~ 100 yuan / ton, difficult to have a transaction, market buying performance is cautious, flat water copper holders take the lead in abandoning the price adjustment situation, flat water copper adjustment to 30 ~ discount 20 yuan / ton, the transaction is better, good copper is reduced to 50 ~ 60 yuan / ton

    between the supply and demand sides.
    In the afternoon, due to the recovery of plate prices, the downstream stopped and waited for the high price, and the current holders were not eager to sell goods, and the quotation was firm, so the transaction performance was more deadlocked

    slightly during the day.

    to the entire non-ferrous metal market.
    In terms of turning to Lun copper, there will be a partial decline after hitting the high level again, which will also have a certain impact
    on the country.
    It is expected that Shanghai copper will maintain a shock adjustment trend after this high opening, and the shock range is expected to be 49000-49500, and in the case of reduced copper concentrate supply and industrial recovery in this year, there will be a stage of small rise after short-term adjustment, and the specific range will depend on the later demand boost
