After testing support towards $1,850, copper bounced back on fairly brisk bouts of cash buying, while nickel failed to gain on news of production cuts at Inco's Manitoba smelter. Aluminium reached a fresh two-year low of $1,425 under light liquidation but subsequently clawed back on consumer buying and short covering. Traders said they expected a period of consolidation if copper and aluminium hold above their support around $1,820/30 and $1,400/$1,430. "The market is still nervous to further falls, though after managing to absorb the third Wednesday pricing it should adopt some degree of stability," one trader commented. Benchmark three months delivery copper was last at $1,865, down on Friday's LME kerb close of $1,870. On the upside chartists are expecting resistance at $1,875/80, followed by the key level of $1,900. Inco's failure to reach a contract agreement with workers at their Manitoba plant saw nickel drift back. Traders said the strike had already been factored into prices and believed there was no shortage of available metal to the market. An Inco spokesman said earlier on Monday that talks between unions and management were continuing at its 50,000-tonne a year operation. The plant will remain shut until a collective agreement is struck. Last business was at $7,450, down from $7,560. Downtrending charts continued to pressure aluminium, though prices never seriously tested strong underlying support at $1,400 during Monday morning. Last business was at $1,426, a loss of $10. Lead and zinc remained quiet and largely reflected the moves of the copper market. Lead was last at $797 from $809, while zinc settled at $1,025, a gain of $2. Tin lost $10 to $6,150, while alloy was last quoted at $1,235/45, against $1,246. FRANCUSKA BURZA KOVINA - 16. rujna 1996. BAKAR FFR/100 KG 1029 KOSITAR FFR/100 KG 3715 CINK EL.
