Yesterday, China Nonferrous Mining's stock price surged by 4.46%, with a trading volume reaching HKD 260 million, clearly indicating a pattern of rising volume and price. The MACD daily bullish signal has strengthened, and short-term momentum indicators are diverging upwards, which is typically interpreted by the market as a precursor to the initiation of a phase of main upward trend. On the market, the stock opened high and maintained a strong performance throughout the day, with no significant profit-taking observed at the close, highlighting the characteristics of bullish control. On the news front, the recent continuous rise in copper prices has become the biggest driving force. Zijin Mining rose by 2.31% yesterday, MMG surged by 7.32%, and CMOC increased by 2.61%, with the non-ferrous metal sector showing strong performance across the board, creating a powerful linkage effect. Although the news of the U.S. and Iran nearing a ceasefire memorandum has temporarily suppressed oil prices, industrial metals like copper benefit more from the global manufacturing recovery expectations and the long-term demand growth brought about by the energy transition. At the same time, China's steady growth policies continue to be reinforced, with infrastructure and power grid investments providing rigid support for copper demand. Resource stocks are being favored by funds outside of technology-focused stock selection funds during the ceasefire market. On the technical side, the current 5-day moving average is accelerating upwards, forming a bullish arrangement diverging upwards from the 10-day moving average, with the stock price effectively breaking through the recent consolidation platform. Trading volume has expanded to more than 1.5 times the average trading volume of the past 5 days, indicating a stronger influx of funds than typical rebounds. Within the sector, MMG and Zijin Mining are both strengthening simultaneously, forming a collective breakthrough in the copper mining sector. The short-term trend is biased towards bullish, with good alignment of volume and price, and clear sector resonance

Pre-market trend | CHINFMINING (1258.HK) surged over 4% on May 7, are resource stocks back in action?

Yesterday, CMOC closed at HKD 17.95, up 1.99%, after briefly reaching a high of HKD 18.2 during the session before retreating. It opened at HKD 17.88 with a gap up, but the upward momentum quickly weakened above HKD 18, and it failed to hold the intraday high by the end of the session. The MACD daily chart has shown bearish signals, indicating a phase of diminishing upward momentum in the short term, and the previously sustained bullish trend is facing a directional test. The total trading volume for the day was approximately HKD 262 million, with average trading volume and no significant signals of new capital inflow. On the news front, the global non-ferrous metals market has recently been in a state of mixed bullish and bearish sentiment. On one hand, figures like Dalio have warned of rising global macro risks, with geopolitical conflicts and debt issues potentially triggering systemic volatility; on the other hand, if the situation in the Middle East sees a phase of easing, the safe-haven premium for industrial metals like copper and molybdenum may narrow. Trump announced a "freedom of navigation" plan for the Strait of Hormuz, and if shipping routes return to normal, the tension in the global commodity supply chain may ease, leading to uncertainty in sentiment for diversified mining companies like CMOC in the short term. Additionally, strong GDP growth in Hong Kong for the first quarter provides some bottom support for the Hong Kong stock market from a macro perspective. Technically, the HKD 18 level has constituted resistance for several consecutive days, and yesterday's unsuccessful attempt to break through further confirmed the effectiveness of this resistance. The 5-day moving average is around HKD 17.6-17.7, still about 2% away from yesterday's closing price, indicating weak short-term support
