As of the end of the month, the nonferrous index closed at 815 points, up 2.9% from 792 points at the beginning of the month, down 4.2% from the beginning of the year, down 3.07% year on year. Liu Meili, an analyst of nonferrous industry in business society, pointed out that compared with the rebound of 4.65% of nonferrous index in April, it was slightly worse in May, only rebounded by 2.9%, and the rebound speed slowed down. Affected by the epidemic situation, nonferrous index has been in a shock rebound trend since the end of March 19 this year, with a cumulative rebound of 11.79%, but it is still lower than the value at the beginning of the year, and it has not reached the same level of last year. With the arrival of the traditional off-season in June, the demand slows down, and the international market outlook is still unclear, which has put pressure on the non-ferrous market. It is expected that the non-ferrous market in June will be slightly weaker than that in May, and the main shock will be weak, which is still difficult to reach the level of the same period last year.
