As of February 26, domestic electrolytic copper spot inventory reached 536,100 tons, increasing from recent levels, with inventories rising in Shanghai, Guangdong, Jiangsu and other regions. The continuous inventory increase is attributed to the arrival of domestic copper shipments in transit and the slow pace of downstream production resumption, resulting in limited market demand.
