According to the data monitoring of SunSirs, the zinc price rose first and then fell in January, and the future market is not optimistic. As of January 31, the spot price of zinc was 18,560.33RMB/ton. The price of zinc fluctuated and fell after a short rise in the first ten days of January.

Domestic zinc Market

In the first ten days of January, affected by the stock up of Spring Festival, zinc market demand rose shortly, and zinc price was stimulated to recover. With the end of the stock up, zinc price fell, fluctuated and stabilized. During the Spring Festival, affected by the epidemic, downstream enterprises respond to the call of the state to postpone the time of work, and the downstream demand is expected to decrease. At the production end, the production of refined zinc and zinc mines is relatively stable, with limited impact. In terms of export, affected by the epidemic situation, it is expected that the export of zinc products such as zinc and galvanized sheet will decrease significantly. The demand of zinc market in the future is declining, the supply is stable, the negative situation of zinc market in the future is increasing, and the market situation of zinc market is negative.

The price of zinc in LME market rose first and then fell. Since the outbreak, the price of zinc fell to the end, and did not improve. The international zinc price fell, the market risk aversion psychology was prominent, and the future market was bearish.

The overall macro-economic environment is general, which is of limited benefit to zinc city. Affected by the epidemic situation, the economic performance in February is still not optimistic, and the zinc market in the future is negative.
