"Once again it's been pretty dire this morning," said one floor trader. Dealers said they were awaiting the Securities and Investment Board's (SIB) consultative paper due for release at 1300 GMT on Thursday. "It will be interesting to see what it shows up," said one. Copper prices edged lower but held support, slightly depressed by cash sales towards the end of the official morning ring. But the sales were well absorbed and nearby spreads remained tight. Three month futures ended the morning session at $1,925 a tonne against $1,927 at Tuesday's afternoon kerb close. Prices are entrenched in a narrow range between $1,905 and $1,970. Aluminium was little changed, edging up $0.50 to to $1,515 by the end of the session. Prices traded in a narrow $1,514/16 range all day and traders could see no reason for recent bands to be broken while interest was at such a low ebb. Nickel dipped, nudging below first support at $7,090 at one stage before climbing back above the level. Despite weak short term fundamental factors, traders said the big losses in nickel during the second quarter of the year had been overdone, and more covering was needed to the upside. Last morning kerb business was at $7,110 from $7,130. Tin and zinc moved sideways, although chart patterns on both markets pointed to more significant moves soon. Converging short term support and resistance trendlines for both markets signalled a break-out of recent ranges, although it was unclear which direction either market was most likely to break, chartists said. Zinc was last indicated at $1,037/38 from $1,037 and tin moved to $6,175 from $6,160. Lead was supported by nearby tightness, with three month prices last at $827, unchanged. Alloy was ignored, last indicated at $1,305/10 from $1,300. FRANCUSKA BURZA KOVINA - 14. kolovoza 1996. BAKAR FFR/100 KG 1080 KOSITAR FFR/100 KG 3639 CINK EL.
