SMM Cobalt and Lithium Morning Meeting Minutes: Refined cobalt spot prices fluctuated upward this week. Supply side, the current market social inventory remained high, but the inventory structure showed slight differences. Supply side, due to raw materials maintaining high levels, the economic viability of refined cobalt production was poor, and smelters' enthusiasm for refined cobalt production was relatively low, with some smelters implementing production cuts. Demand side, downstream producers' inquiry activity slightly increased, but their willingness to stock up at high prices was not strong. It is expected that refined cobalt prices will maintain a fluctuating trend next week.
