SHFE Weekly Inventories: Copper Up 15,218t, Aluminium Down 29,401t
AI take
The split matters more than the headline: copper building while every other base metal and rubber draws down suggests the copper increase is a copper-specific story, not a broad demand signal. Aluminium's decline, the largest in the set, points to the opposite dynamic. Whether copper's build continues against a falling complex is the open question for anyone tracking Chinese industrial demand.
