Report summary
Tumultuous financial markets pushed base metal prices lower in September. The dramatic sell-off was mirrored across the LME and appears to have been driven by a realisation amongst investors that the US Federal Reserve remains extremely hawkish on inflation and that there was little chance of a pause in the pace of increasing interest rates. European spot premiums remained steady but with news from Glencore that it will be idling its Nordenham zinc smelter, it seems more likely that spot premiums will be moving higher soon. Meanwhile, in the concentrate market, China spot TCs moved higher with improved availability of zinc concentrate.
