Nickel prices remain at $ 11,000 per ton

On the London Metal Exchange, nickel prices fell below $ 11,000 per tonne at the end of November 2016, and returned to the same level in December.

But Brexit and the situation in Italy due to lagging behind Italian Prime Minister Renzi, as well as a strong dollar, continue to threaten base metals. However, nickel prices are holding steady, but they may come under pressure in the short term, according to metal analysts.
