ING analysts Warren Patterson and Ewa Manthey report Copper trading near recent highs, supported by pre-holiday restocking in China ahead of Labour Day. This demand is offsetting macro and geopolitical uncertainty, while risks around the Iran conflict, stricter Chinese invoicing rules, and war-related supply constraints such as sulphur continue to shape the near-term Copper market balance.
Chinese restocking underpins copper prices
"Copper held near recent highs, supported by pre-holiday restocking in China, which is offsetting macro and geopolitical uncertainty."
"Buying ahead of the Labour Day holiday has provided near-term support following the recent pullback."
"In China, stricter enforcement around invoicing may weigh on spot activity and slow inventory draws."
"Supply-side risks linked to war-related disruptions, especially constraints on inputs such as sulphur, continue to underpin the market."
