[SMM Daily Review: Lithium Carbonate Prices Remain Stable on December 25]
The SMM battery-grade lithium carbonate index stood at 75,479 yuan/mt, down 21 yuan/mt WoW. Battery-grade lithium carbonate was quoted at 74,350-76,850 yuan/mt, with an average price of 75,600 yuan/mt, unchanged from the previous working day. Industrial-grade lithium carbonate was quoted at 71,850-72,850 yuan/mt, with an average price of 72,350 yuan/mt, also unchanged from the previous working day. The spot transaction price center for lithium carbonate remained stable. Currently, upstream lithium chemical smelters maintain a strong sentiment to stand firm on quotes, with most transactions occurring between traders and downstream material plants. Some material plants have clarified their future production schedules, leading to stronger purchasing and inventory stocking intentions. Considering the actual supply and demand situation for lithium carbonate and the current market inventory levels of circulating lithium carbonate, spot prices for lithium carbonate are expected to have slight downside room, accompanied by sideways movement.
