The LME was closed on Monday for a UK public holiday, meaning stock data was not released on Tuesday. The next report will be on Friday. "It has been very quiet, and the copper market is completely featureless," said one trader. "Aluminium did make a six-week low at one stage, but volumes were again incredibly light," he added. One dealer reported a low trade of $1,467 a tonne for three months aluminium against Friday's afternoon kerb close of $1,479. Stop loss selling below support at $1,475/80 triggered the move before light scale down trade buying emerged. The market ended the morning session at $1,475, down $4. Some dealers expected further losses in the short term, with the big target pegged at $1,450/55 support. But longer term the outlook was more bullish. "Long term I am friendly towards the market, but I still think we need to flush out some near term longs first," said a trader. Another pegged first resistance around $1,500. Copper also edged lower against a background of easier nearby spreads. Three month futures finished the morning kerb at $1,944, down $5, while cash narrowed to around $38 above three month values from $42 on Friday. Technically the market looked set to remain between $1,920 and $1,950 in the short term and between $1,900 and $1,970 in the longer term. Dealers were closely monitoring events at Phelp Dodge's Chino mine in New Mexico and Codelco's Salvador mine in Chile. Wage and contract talks at the mines are ongoing, opening up the possibility of industrial action and output disruptions. But some traders played down the chances of disruptions. "We don't think either will blow up into anything signficant," said one. Other base metals mostly followed copper and aluminium slightly lower. Lead eased $4 to $803 but held support at $800. Nickel fell to $7,370 from $7,425 on light profit-taking into last week's gains. Tin was slow, gaining $5 to $6,175 while zinc rose $2 to $1,025. Alloy eased $10 to $1,275.
