Silver prices fluctuated and stabilized today, and the spot-futures price spread between TD and the most-traded SHFE silver contract widened slightly. Suppliers' premium quotations rose slightly from yesterday. In the Shanghai market, during early trading, mainstream quotations from suppliers of national-standard silver ingots were at premiums of 100-120 yuan/kg against TD, or at a premium of 50 yuan/kg against the SHFE silver 2604 contract. A few suppliers were reluctant to sell small volumes at premiums of 120-150 yuan/kg against TD. After negotiations, mainstream transaction prices for mt-level volumes in the market were close to premiums of 70-100 yuan/kg against TD, or near parity against the 2604 contract. Downstream enterprises actively negotiated and bought the dip, and consumption improved slightly compared with yesterday.
