July 16 news: The average spot price of EMM in major producing areas was 13,500-13,600 yuan/mt, unchanged MoM; the average FOB price was $1,880-$1,920/mt, unchanged MoM. Supply side, many EMM producers held back from selling. Recently, influenced by the futures market of SiMn and the dual impact of rising sulphuric acid prices as a raw material, the spot order quotes of individual producers increased, with a strong refusal to budge on prices and fewer low-priced goods in the market. Demand side, downstream steel mills were still in the traditional off-season, with procurement remaining cautious. High-price transactions did not progress, and the overall wait-and-see sentiment was strong. Follow-up attention should still be paid to the progress of steel tenders and market transaction situations.
