The global nickel market deficit narrowed to 200 tonnes in April compared with a shortfall a month earlier of 8,900 tonnes, data from the International Nickel Study Group (INSG) showed on Wednesday.
During the first four months of the year, the global market was in a deficit of 8,100 tonnes compared with a deficit of 63,900 tonnes in the same period of 2021, Lisbon-based INSG added.
