Mainstream rare earth market prices barely changed during the Chinese New Year holidays. With delayed production resumption of magnetic materials companies against active shipments of upstream sectors, actual transaction prices of rare earth showed a downward trend last week. Rare earth prices rose before the holiday, driven by pre-holiday stocking, but gains were limited as metal and magnetic material plants did not stock up massively. Rare earth market activity may pick up at the end of February.
