Analysis review
Raw materials
The average market price of ferrosilicon in Ningxia was 8,178.57 RMB/tonn, which was rising steadily. The steel bidding of January was launched in advance, the market demand was released, most suppliers supported prices, and the inventory resources were relatively limited. In the short term, the ferrosilicon market was operating steadily.
In terms of coal, the price of semi-coke in Fugu market was stable, the price of lump coal in some coal mines rose slightly, the production and sales of semi-coke were balanced, and the inventory was slowly digested.
Supply side
As the price of magnesium ingots continued to decline, the contradiction between supply and demand in the magnesium market became increasingly prominent. Some magnesium plants were forced to actively reduce production due to the tight capital chain and serious losses. Nitrogen had little impact on the current overall market pattern.
Market outlook
As a whole, the magnesium ingot market was in the downward channel, with unbalanced supply and demand, and a strong bearish sentiment in the market. Although cost support slowed down the decline of magnesium price, the overall situation was difficult to reverse. It is expected that the price of magnesium ingots will continue to decline in the short term.
