    In the spot market, spot demand was sluggish under the epidemic, and holders lowered their premium quotations to stimulate shipments, but trading activity was also difficult to improve, and the overall transaction performance was biased
    .
    The recent significant increase in the epidemic situation in East China and the strengthening of control have led to a sharp increase in logistics transportation and warehousing costs, which has also made it difficult to pick up goods downstream and weakened spot demand.
    Under the influence of the epidemic, market trading is more weak, but the State Council will still release confidence in stable growth, and the decline in copper prices is limited
    by the solid support of low inventories.

    Overall, the recent supply and demand in the domestic market are weak, upstream and downstream production has been reduced, and copper prices have shown a volatile trend
    .
    If the domestic epidemic improves, consumption will be replenished, and copper prices may be stronger under the support of low inventories
