Ferro Molybdenum Price - April 8, 2021

Molybdenum market quotation in China: sodium molybdate, ammonium molybdate and ferro molybdenum prices remain stable on April 8, 2021. After the holiday of Tomb-Sweeping Day, market trading seems active and some deals are concluded. 

In the molybdenum concentrate market, orders have grown rapidly. With the increasing enthusiasm of downstream ferro-molybdenum merchants in purchasing, molybdenum mining companies are willing to cut product prices for sales. The current transaction price is around RMB 1,660 per ton.

In the ferromolybdenum market, the overall trading enthusiasm is relatively high. At the beginning of the month, in addition to the centralized bidding of steel companies, the bidding price is considerable, which is the main reason for the increase in the willingness of the holders to ship and the confidence in the price. In the short term, market price may continue its stability. 

In the molybdenum chemical and its products market, the supply and demand are relatively balanced, and the end customers basically rely on order-to-order purchases. However, supported by the rising costs and upstream market conditions, suppliers are less willing to sell at lower prices.
