China Tells

Since Oct 08 (the Financial Crisis), there has been some choppy developments of material prices in China. Notably some materials went through a severe correction of price (eg., Copper, Coal, and Aluminum). Since Q1 09, however, the materials re bounced back with a strong momentum. Copper, the most hit during the crisis, had the strongest rebounce (about 150% up from Oct 08 level). Interestingly, Steel went through an opposite price movement as compared to others.

08年10月份金融危机爆发，那时候各种金属价格受到很大冲击，尤其以铜为甚。然而09年第一季度以来，这些商品的价格迅速复苏，也以铜领先群雄。目前铜价相对于08年水平涨幅最大，上升了150%左右。
