Trading volume was 169,412 lots, and open interest was 333,773 lots. Cost side, the manganese ore market remained firm, with little change in cost support. Supply side, most plants experienced relatively small fluctuations in operating rates, wait-and-see sentiment was strong, and retail quotations and willingness to sell remained low. Demand side, HBIS Group's final September SiMn pricing at 6,000 yuan/mt had a relatively small boost on the SiMn alloy market. Recent SiMn market quotations have been cautious, and future SiMn alloy prices still need to monitor downstream steel mill demand and SiMn futures trends.
