Comprehensive foreign news report on December 21, the London Metal Exchange (LME) base metals on the 21st most of the closing up, including copper and nickel futures led the gains, trading was light. Thanks to low inventory, early-term LME copper rose to a three-week high of $3,105. The next target of the contract is the December 2 high of $3,127.

LME spot/three-month copper discounts held steady at $112.50/ton, slightly higher than $110/ton on the 20th. High discounts indicate that the supply of copper has fallen. At midday, the price of copper fell to US$3,050/ton, and the closing price rose again to US$3,105/ton. LME three-month nickel rose more than 8% on the 20th, and rose 5.3% at the beginning of the 21st. Boosted by technical buying, nickel prices rose to an intraday high of $15,400/tonne.
