    Market research and judgment: Shanghai copper 2008 continued to rise
    sharply on July 9.
    The epidemic situation in South America is still fermenting, affecting local copper mine production and transportation, resulting in tight supply in the copper mine market; The tight production cost of raw materials has moved up, and the maintenance and production reduction of domestic smelters have increased, and the production of electrolytic copper is expected to further decline, which will support
    copper prices.
    However, downstream demand has weakened recently, domestic copper rod processing fees have been reduced, and Shanghai copper inventories have rebounded; In addition, the spread of refined scrap prices widened and the import quota of scrap copper was abundant, limiting the upward momentum
    of copper prices.
    In terms of spot, copper prices are rising, downstream remains on the sidelines, the price difference between the next month of the day narrows significantly, and the holders are entangled
    .
