Social inventories of silicon in Huangp port, Kunming, and Tianjin port totalled 24,000 mt, flat from a week ago.

SHANGHAI, June 25 (SMM) - Social inventories of silicon in Huangp port, Kunming, and Tianjin port totalled 24,000 mt, flat from a week ago.

The inventory in Kunming increased amid higher operating rates in Yunnan. The inventory at Huangpu port was largely unchanged. The silicon metal arriving at Tianjin port this week will also be shipped out within the week. Since the operating rates will drop in north China and rise in South China, the total silicon metal social inventories are expected to stand stable.
