0 comments
Into the first week of July, antimony market seems to be somewhat active signs of actual transaction slightly increment, let people trance have "prices bottomed out" illusion, in fact, market mentality is still relatively weak, because summer break stage export overseas will be reduced, antimony trioxide sales also is not very reassuring, the overall market is in the second half of the rhythm of the cautious kicked off the start.
Material aspects: domestic mining causes a decline in the drawing and the rainy season, although the early sources digestive ability is insufficient, because two-way prices were low, the price is not falling, smelter purchasing slows, clinch a deal the anemic as a whole.
The supply of antimony oxide powder is still in short supply due to environmental impact in chenzhou area.
Antimony ingot aspects: after last week, antimony ingot maintain slow down, all the way to stability in the 2 # high bismuth and antimony ingot 51000 yuan/ton, 2 # low bismuth and antimony ingot 53000 yuan/ton, 54000 yuan/ton 1 # antimony ingot, 0 # antimony ingot 55000 yuan/ton.
The price of bulk purchase is slightly below the price of 500 to 1000 yuan.
With the gradual reduction of price, small and medium-sized purchasing behaviors are gradually in place as the price gradually reaches the control risk of processing and trade.
In addition, after a period of waiting for the end customers, the inventory has absorbed most of the inventory and gradually has the intention of replenishing the library, starting with the small amount of inquiry.
Antimony trioxide: 99.5% trioxide in this week's regular quotation is RMB 48,500 / ton, 99.8% trioxide and antimony at 50,000 yuan/ton;
Familiar supply and marketing enterprises, the actual transaction price is still slightly lower than this price.
As the downstream purchase volume and activity of antimony trioxide is lower than that of antimony ingots, the active degree of antimony traders is less active than that of antimony ingot.
At present, the main producing area is hunan cold water river area, the transformation of the pilot environmental rehabilitation enterprise is in advance, it will take time for the energy to reach normal construction.
And since July and August for overseas purchase is relatively light, during summer break could not significantly improve consumer trends, so the manufacturer because inventory still remains in the domestic market, smelter should not blindly increase their pressure restore production in large quantities.
The market at present from the original two extreme situations "1, do not buy goods do not ship, 2, batch low price to sell goods";
Gradually shift to "1, start small batch stock, 2, insist on rational price shipment".
