6、 Market analysis

London (Reuters) - nickel prices hit their highest level in nearly a decade on Tuesday as falling global inventories showed strong demand, while trading on the London Metal Exchange (LME) was affected by power outages. LME nickel hit its highest level in nearly 10 years on Tuesday due to the reduction of global inventory and the interruption of LME trading.

Traders said that LME, the worlds largest industrial metal trading market, failed to complete some transactions due to power failure last night, affecting trading activities. In addition, as manufacturers cut production for equipment maintenance, the price of stainless steel rose sharply, and the demand for nickel caused by the surge in sales of electric vehicles supported the market. Major automobile manufacturers increased production and sales.

As Chinas industrial sector has been asked to reduce production during the Winter Olympics, it is expected that production will also be affected by the Spring Festival holiday and the Beijing Winter Olympics. Stainless steel plants dominated by China account for about two-thirds of the global nickel consumption.
