The 2025 2nd SMM Southeast Asia Automotive Supply Chain Conference was successfully held, featuring the on-site launch of 10 new car models, Southeast Asia brand strategies from three automakers, and SMM's local steel prices in Thailand. The event facilitated efficient matchmaking between 12+ buyers and 60+ suppliers, and preliminarily established a communication platform for the entire industry chain of Southeast Asian automotive. Currently, the NEV industry in Southeast Asia is entering a critical development phase. Thailand, Indonesia, and Vietnam each have their own strategic layouts and breakthroughs, while the industry also faces challenges such as supply chain restructuring, competition over technology roadmaps, and localization compliance. Thanks to the support of all parties, SMM's local pricing systems in Thailand and Indonesia have been implemented and adopted by core enterprises, establishing a credible cost benchmark for the industry. The 2026 3rd Conference will focus on three core themes: exploring the NEV auto sales potential in Southeast Asia; connecting the last mile of the supply chain and integrating regional industry chain resources; and advancing SMM's Southeast Asia metal pricing from a price reference to a transaction benchmark, implementing electrification material procurement applications, and establishing an executable pricing system. We firmly believe that true progress comes from turning consensus into action. At this conference, BEST cordially invites you to gather again in Bangkok to transform strategic blueprints into market competitive advantages, to witness and participate in this extraordinary and far-reaching industry event, and to co-create a brilliant new chapter!

Today, SMM's pricing for SGE Ag(T+D) at 10:00 was 18,792 yuan/kg, with premiums quoted at TD -30 to -10 yuan/kg, averaging -20 yuan/kg. Precious metals futures stopped falling and rebounded slightly today, with the pace still following the back-and-forth of US-Iran tensions and US Treasury yield fluctuations. Spot market side, suppliers of national-standard silver ingots posted mainstream quotations at discounts of 30 yuan/kg to 10 yuan/kg against TD. Most suppliers in Shanghai quoted discounts unchanged from yesterday. Some suppliers reported that heavy trading yesterday afternoon left them with less spot inventory, so they held prices firm; some delivery brand silver ingot suppliers also quoted at parity and held back from selling with a wait-and-see attitude, but transactions were difficult. The market reported that after yesterday's recovery in trading, consumption returned to sluggish levels today, with the transaction center skewing toward the lower end of quotations. Non-delivery brands in Shenzhen maintained large discounts deviating from mainstream quotations, while investment demand recovered somewhat as silver prices declined in recent days. Overall, spot market activity was relatively low today.

Today, SMM's 10:00 AM pricing for the SGE Ag(T+D) was 18,351 yuan/kg, with premiums ranging from TD -30 to -10 yuan/kg, averaging -20 yuan/kg. Precious metals futures remained under pressure today. Heating rate hike expectations drove a sharp decline in precious metals, compounded by easing tariff concerns and a pullback in strategic resource premiums, leading to a significant intraday drop in silver. Spot market, suppliers of GB-standard silver ingots posted mainstream quotations at premiums of -30 to -10 yuan/kg against TD. Although mainstream discount quotations narrowed slightly amid the sharp futures decline, market transactions showed no improvement, with the trading center still clearly skewed toward the lower end of quotations. Some suppliers reported that transactions for GB-standard silver ingots remained extremely difficult even at the lower end of quotations, as downstream restocking willingness was limited and involution among numerous spot market offers continued. In the Shenzhen area, non-delivery brand quotations maintained large discounts deviating from mainstream quotations, while investment demand recovered slightly. The overall spot market remained sluggish today.
