Report summary
Nickel prices moved lower at the end of April, triggered by comments on the Chinese economy. Near-term outlook looks bearish due to the ramp up of more NPI in China and Indonesia, whereas high stainless stocks signal that cuts in melting are likely in China. Even though H2 maybe more positive, the nickel market will end 2019 with a small surplus, while the deficits once forseen for 2020 and 2021 are much reduced.
