According to SMM, on March 4, an Indonesian major stainless steel mill raised its 316L export quotation by USD 100/mt, pushing the price spread between 316L and 304 to USD 1,800/mt. This sharp increase is driven by a rallying molybdenum market: while domestic mines have begun concentrated shipments, molybdenum concentrate transaction prices continue to trend upward. The entire industry chain currently exhibits firm raw material prices and cost-driven pressure, with downstream demand gradually following suit. Strong cost support from the ferromolybdenum market has led to this significant price divergence.

According to SMM, on February 25, an Indonesian major stainless steel mill sharply raised its 316 export quotation by USD 100/mt, widening the price gap with 304 to USD 1,700/mt. This surge is heavily driven by a rallying molybdenum market, which saw gains prior to the break due to rising international oxide molybdenum prices and downstream restocking. Following the resumption of operations, domestic molybdenum mines have maintained tight supply due to seasonal weakness and declining ore grades. With strong cost support and a surge in restocking from steel mills, the ferromolybdenum market is projected to maintain a strong, volatile upward trend in the short term.
