LME Warehouse Stocks
Official daily on-warrant stocks held in LME-approved warehouses worldwide (Rotterdam, Singapore, Busan, Port Klang, Antwerp, New Orleans and others). End-of-day totals across the six base metals, with daily change and historical archive. Use this as a physical-supply signal alongside spot and futures pricing.
By metal
How to read warehouse stocks
Rising stocks typically signal market surplus or weakening demand. Falling stocks typically signal tightening physical supply or strong end-use demand. Cancelled warrants (metal earmarked for withdrawal) are a leading indicator of future stock draws.
Stock totals are end-of-day, not real-time. They reflect on-warrant metal — physical units that are available for delivery against LME futures contracts. Off-warrant inventory (held outside LME warehouses) is not included here.
