This week, the domestic spot market for refined cobalt continued its slight upward trend, with the price center edging up and the fluctuation range remaining limited. On the supply side, raw material costs remained high, and smelters and suppliers maintained firm offers; traders slightly raised their offers following the rebound in futures. On the demand side, downstream industries maintained their just-in-time procurement pace, but after prices stabilized temporarily, some enterprises showed a slight increase in inquiries and purchase willingness, leading to a slight improvement in overall transactions compared to the previous period. Currently, the price spread between refined cobalt and cobalt salts has returned to a reasonable range. If refined cobalt prices are to rise further, stronger momentum from the cobalt salts side will still be needed.
