Traders said interest in December dates was keen three business days ahead of the December date pricing, with cash to December at a $50/51 backwardation and cash over the weekend trading at $14. Dec 17/18 traded at $16 backwardation also. News the Dutch Bureau of Statistics admitted supplying flawed data on copper flows through Rotterdam, which cleared up the puzzle of substantial hidden stocks, was a background factor. Traders said the market had generally been sceptical that a substantial amount of copper could be stored undetected in the Netherlands, so incorrect data had always been the likeliest explanation. Business was mostly routine, including on the spreads, and final three months trade on the kerb was at $2,156, up $20 a tonne from Tuesday. Elsewhere, the aluminium market attracted good buying on dips, with support projected between $1,500 and $1,510. Last morning business was at $1,512, a $8.50 gain. Lead staged a recovery from recent 13-month lows, albeit in sluggish trading with the advance faltering at $680. Prices finished the kerb at $679, up $7 from Tuesday. Tin also mounted a mini-rally, having plunged to 18-month lows this week, and cleared $5,800 to conclude the kerb at $5,810, up $40. Nickel encountered liquidation around $6,800, and closed a subdued session at $6,780, down $20 from yesterday. Zinc was equally quiet, and after edging up faltered at $1,050. Last morning business was still $3 higher at $1,048. The alloy market was indicated at a steady $1,358/60 a tonne. FRANCUSKI METALI - 11. prosinca 1996.
