According to SMM, China's EMM production in May was 100,900 mt, up 3.52% MoM and 33.28% YoY. In January-May, the production totalled approximately 478,500 mt, down 3.20% YoY. Guangxi, Guizhou, and Sichuan saw growing operating rates, contributing to EMM production increase in May. Specifically, EMM plants in these regions resumed production, and large plants had orders scheduled until June, operating at full capacity. However, some large EMM plants in Guizhou experienced production cuts due to production pressure, but the reduction was minimal.
Entering June, idled EMM plants in Guangxi and Hunan may have plans to restart in June, but the resumption time varies among factories, so the estimated increase in production is limited. EMM production for June is estimated to reach about 104,900 mt.
