[electrolytic manganese] China's current market electrolytic manganesesimple analysis

Electrolytic manganese current market decline very rapidly. yesterday (6-25) in most parts of the manufacturers offer more 19000-19500 yuan / ton, and the manufacturers have different levels of inventory, but there are also many manufacturers still insist on high Price, Jishou, a regional producers Price 22,000 yuan / ton, They said not less than 20,000 yuan / ton price bid. Meanwhile, some larger enterprises are currently completing pre-contract, and therefore the current rates little affected.
Many in the industry believe that the Electrolytic Manganese prices have fallen to the cost line, the price is very likely there will be a rebound.

[ferro manganese ]China ferro manganese market prices have been falling

Recently, China ferromanganese market prices have been declining, the transaction is very thin, market participants are mostly in a wait-and-see, the whole market is still at a relatively low state.
Last weekend, the Anshan Iron and Steel Company HCFeMn tender Up # 73 high-carbon ferromanganese plant to the tax-inclusive price of about 8,900 yuan / ton, which is equivalent to 8,000 yuan / ton base prices around Judging from the nationwide situation, the North # 65 high carbon ferromanganese prices in the overall 8,300 yuan / tons, and the southern part of the mainstream of the overall price of about 8,000 yuan / tons. Price throughout pre-term compared to the overall low, the current market cost and market demands, The prices are relatively reasonable. Furnace # 65 high-carbon ferromanganese production costs of about 7500 -7600 yuan / t% BF ferromanganese production costs were lower number, therefore, ferromanganese producers profits though the limited space But business is still viable.
As a result of recent market demand, ferromanganese producers have begun to reduce carbon ferromanganese sales price, Now the mainstream FeMn75C2.0 price has dropped to 10,000 yuan / t% and the mainstream feMn78C2.0 prices in 10,800 yuan / t% FeMn78C1.5 prices in the mainstream 11500 -11600 yuan / tons. Silicomanganese prices from declining trend, the price of low-carbon ferromanganese prices could not escape the fate.
Addition, the export market situation is also grim, although the United States, the European markets are relatively strong. But China's exports of silicomanganese ferromanganese prices and the price trend is downward. This is bound to domestic manganese alloy market pressure.

Ferrosilicon : market turnover remained stagnant, and Northwest ferrosilicon (# 72) Price manufactured in 5600-5700 yuan / t% (# 75) Outgoing Price in 5800 -5900 yuan / ton.
Silicomanganese : stability in the general operation of the market, prices are in the South 8300 -8500 yuan / t% North prices in 8600 -8800 yuan / t%;
ferromanganese : HCFeMn market transactions of the downturn trend. When it gets to the market trend was small. South HCFeMn transaction price will remain basically yuan in 8000 -8200 / t%; North HCFeMn bid prices at 8300 -8500 yuan / t%; Low-carbon ferromanganese (80-0.7) southwest region in the month trip to 18,500 yuan / ton%; Northeast Price OK to 18000 yuan / tons. Market transactions generally, small businesses export.
High-carbon ferrochrome : stainless steel market due to lower market prices and upstream chrome ore imports to the dual role of high, prices changed little in 8600 -8900 yuan / ton range, market demand, the transaction is slightly lighter; Port chrome ore import prices relatively stable, trading in general.
Ni, Fe : deferred stable market prices, and key areas of nickel iron Price 4% -7% specifications 2,650 yuan / ton degrees; 10-15% specifications at 2,950 yuan / ton degrees, with high chromium market. in the downstream stainless steel market prices have fallen under the influence of weak market demand, the transaction more tepid.
Mo : Mo Rail domestic market remains in the doldrums Price key areas (# 60) Molybdenum iron in the basic 28.2-28.5 million / tons, slightly down trend. Many manufacturers widely believed that the state will certainly be introduced again inhibit export policy, therefore, rob a just a single, seize the immediate benefits of scraping become the biggest impetus for export, export markets are more active.
Ferrovanadium : stable market fundamentals, the market price of the 13% .3-13.5 million, trading was light.
Niobium iron : When it gets to market low, the market quotations FeNb60 specifications in 28 -29 million / ton, Brazil imports 65 grade niobium iron prices at 270,000 yuan / tons.
TR : to maintain a stable situation, and key areas Price # 30% - 25 specifications, the basic 13400 -13700 yuan between a smooth transaction.

[Tungsten ore]Tungsten ore prices will rise next year?

Welcome to www.chinaferroalloy.com
Recently, the Tungsten ore prices decline, the current mainstream Concentraes Price 97000 -98000 yuan / ton, sale prices as low as 96,000 yuan / ton, 60 degrees above the tungsten ore is not tax-inclusive price also dropped to 1.33 yuan / degrees, and the businessmen of very promising outlook. Many business-to-tungsten City has lost confidence.
Due to the impact of tariffs to the market a great deal of pressure. regardless of the business or the market mentality has been a big influence. Chinese businessmen to reduce export prices as a means to stimulate the market wishes to buy, has stressed active atmosphere! However, this method effective, It is not just the end of the routine work.
W Rail, the price is not much change was accompanied by a small margin steady decline trend of development, Price currently mainstream 16 .8-17.2 10,000 / ton, APT price has been in decline, to the current 249 -253 U.S. dollars / ton, lower than the previous 252-256 U.S. dollars / ton degrees. Some producers think the spot APT no sales pressure, the higher the sales price quotations. But as we all know, tungsten Rail, the APT this year has been operating at a meager profit to the state.
Europe, the current .6-32.8 Price for 32 U.S. dollars / kg, Tungsten market participants are not optimistic about the outlook. In China, industry experts said this year China's tungsten ore price trends situation is stabilized, there will not be much float, It is expected in 2008 and the beginning of April to increase the rate of increase! So people in the industry to remind tungsten ore businesses should be very cautious with the operation, not an easy choice Tunhuo because tungsten ore decline in the cycle quite long!Welcome to www.chinaferroalloy.com

[Ferro manganese] analyze China ferro manganese prices reasons for the decline

Ferromanganese recent market prices decline mainly due Analysis :
1, 7-3 reduced demand, ferromanganese main demand from steel mills, Second from the foundry. In general steel procurement is to accept the quarter, while the second quarter of this month is the last month, the steel procurement diminishing, Meanwhile last week, the Northern Steel strategic resources seminar, which was convened in 21 steel for lower prices of raw material procurement, which included iron, therefore, the suppression of ferromanganese Steel purchase price is inevitable. also will bring the price of ferromanganese further sliding. In addition, the increasingly hot weather, some foundries have begun to gradually reduce production, the demand for ferromanganese have relatively reduced.
2, the traders reduced procurement volume. As traders in ferromanganese rose are all hoard goods, in the circumstances now demand, traders will also reduce the volume of procurement. not even procurement. Now, many traders are still selling pre-goods store.
3, silicon, manganese alloy prices fell by the joint role. Given the current market silicomanganese prices fell, silicomanganese FeMn65Si17 parts of the 7,500 yuan / ton prices can be obtained goods, therefore, carbon ferromanganese prices will inevitably decline, which to some extent affected the high-carbon ferromanganese prices. Silicomanganese FeMn65Si17 price 8,500 yuan / tons circumstances, FeMn65C7.0 high carbon ferromanganese prices in order to sell 8,500 yuan / ton, even 9,000 yuan / ton is more difficult.
