Nickel on MCX settled up 0.91% at 706.90 tracking firmness from LME Nickel which rose by 1.4 percent to settled at $10,390 a tonne as support seen after the update that Nickel ore inventories at seven major Chinese ports kept dropping in the week ending Jan. 6. Nickel ore inventories at seven major Chinese ports were down 330,000 tonnes on a weekly basis, according to SMM data. Currently, domestic NPI producers reduced their acceptance price level to medium and high-grade nickel ore as falling NPI prices squeezed their profits, SMM survey finds.
