MARKET THE REPORT. Wednesday, January 25th, 1905. HE copper market has been in the grip of speculative influences, and the frequent changes in quotations have been rather due to efforts to manipulate the market, than to fresh developments in connection with the position of the metal itself. Reference was made last week to the bare condition of the market, and it is difficult to see what is to stop the rise in quotations. In view of the increased trade activity in the United States, it is anticipated the consumption will reach 20,000 tons per month against 16,000 tons last year, while the European consumption is also increasing. Surplus stocks in the States are already exhausted, and those held in England and France represent no more than three weeks' consumption. The copper market is therefore trading on the smallest margin; and the scarcity of the metal appears likely to continue. The Amalgamated Company has again raised the price of electro, but our market yesterday closed rather easier. Tin has been quiet, and lower Eastern advices assisted the efforts of dealers to depress the market pending the Banca sale. Three months' tin at one time was sold down to £129 15s., but the latest prices are better, best Foreign at £130 58. cash, and £130 three months. Lead is easier in tendency, the large arrivals checking the tendency towards the rise in quotations which has manifested itself more than once latterly. The close yesterday was £12 13s. 6d. Foreign, and £12 17s. 6d. English. Spelter has had a temporary slight set-back, speculators for the rise finding an unwilling market when it came to realisations. This, however, was a mere phase and a recovery quickly followed. Consumers still have to deal with a depleted market. In the Iron and Steel sections the Glasgow market has exhibited considerable activity. There has been a swerve in quotations due to the weeding out of the weak bull element, but speculative support was soon forthcoming, and the market once more hardened, although the latest tendency is again towards flatness. Outside the speculative market, the reports from trade centres point to improving business, particularly in shipbuilding materials and other heavy lines. |
