Commodity Market Report
Global nickel short-term outlook June 2021
Report summary
Higher nickel prices are supported by fundamentals: strong demand, tight supply and falling LME stocks. Equally premiums are rising due to the strike at Sudbury and a new Russian export tax. Indonesia considers restricting the building of new NPI smelters. This could spur more stainless and matte, but will also transform the dynamics of nickel supply to China Stainless. And investments across the energy metals supply chain continue.
