  • The domestic tin market generally shows a pattern of weak supply and demand, and tin prices may continue to fluctuate rangebound. [SMM Tin Morning Meeting Summary]

    [SMM Morning Meeting Summary: Domestic tin market generally shows a pattern of weak supply and demand; tin prices may continue to fluctuate rangebound] On the international macro front, the US GDP contracted by 0.3% QoQ in Q1, with core PCE inflation rising to 3.5%, consumer confidence falling to a historic low, and the manufacturing PMI pulling back to 48.7, indicating increased downward pressure on the economy.

It is expected to enter the smelting process in June, making it difficult to alleviate the tight supply situation in the short term. On the demand side, no significant improvement has been observed so far. High tin ingot prices have led to sluggish restocking willingness in the electronics/home appliance industries, causing blockages in industry chain transmission and further reducing the circulation of scrap.
