Market research and judgment: The US inflation data in May will be released soon. The market is generally expected to perform strongly. The Fed's early tightening policy has revived, and the US dollar index has rebounded from a low level. Yunnan's electricity and production restrictions continue to affect the output of tin smelters. Due to the local dry weather, the pressure on water and electricity supply is greater. At present, the Shanghai-London ratio has remained low for a long time, and the net export of refined tin has increased significantly, which is good for the digestion of domestic inventories. However, overseas inventories have continued to rebound recently. However, the current tin price is at a historical high, and the downstream fear of heights is strong, and there is resistance above the tin price. Technically, the focus of the main Shanghai tin contracts has shifted upwards, and there is a tendency to be cautious about shrinking volumes and lightening positions. Operationally, the 205000-209000 range sells high and buys low, with a stop loss of 1500 points each. Up, sell high and buy low in the 205000-209000 range, and stop loss by 1500 points each.
