China Manganese Ore Market Movement (2013-4-10)
Apr 10, 2013 14:42Source:SMM
Quotations for spot manganese ore at ports remained stable, but trading volumes were limited.
SHANGHAI, Apr. 10 (SMM) -
Domestic market:
Quotations for spot manganese ore at ports remained stable, but trading volumes were limited. SMM indicates cost support is the main reason behind recent stable spot prices. Downstream demand has not yet picked up notably. Market players anticipate stable spot manganese ore prices for this month and that any downside space should be limited.
Transactions:
Trading volumes of manganese ore from Australia, Gabon and Brazil outperformed those of other categories in northern and southern ports. SMM’s surveys found that most traders are holding back goods out of optimism over future prices.
