August 5 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 $1,890-$1,930/mt, up MoM. Supply side, most EMM plants had long-term contract deliveries, and low-priced spot cargo available in the market was scarce, leading most plants to hold back from selling. Demand side, downstream steel mills were still in the traditional off-season, and procurement remained cautious, with low acceptance of high-priced EMM, resulting in fewer overall inquiries in the market. Therefore, the spot price of EMM remained firm, with strong wait-and-see sentiment in the market and a lack of sufficient upward momentum.
