SHANGHAI, Oct 25 (SMM) - Today, rare earth oxide prices generally increased. According to SMM, the mainstream transaction prices of PrNd oxide rose to 670,000-675,000 yuan/mt; terbium oxide 13,350-13,400 yuan/kg; dysprosium oxide 2,330-2,350 yuan/kg; gadolinium oxide 370,000-375,000 yuan/mt; holmium oxide 720,000-740,000 yuan/mt today.

The mainstream transaction prices of PrNd alloy stabilised at 810,000-825,000 yuan/mt. According to SMM research, at present, the prices of PrNd alloy increased, and the transactions improved slightly. The prices of middle and heavy rare earth rose stably, coupled with the repeated pandemics in various places, the spot supply of rare earth was tight. Therefore, there were few low-prices goods.

At present, the prices of rare earth rise steadily, and the orders of downstream magnetic material factories are relatively normal. It is expected that the transactions this week will improve compared with last week.

Rare earth market prices in the doldrums, actual transactions lack momentum [SMM Rare Earth Daily Review]
[SMM Rare Earth Daily Review: Rare earth market prices in the doldrums, actual transactions struggle to gain traction] Overall, the market shifted from yesterday's consolidation to a weaker trend today, with declines concentrated mainly in the terbium and Pr-Nd series. The transaction side remained sluggish, with downstream demand dominated by small rigid orders and actual negotiations centered around low-priced cargoes, while inquiries for other varieties stayed steady. In the short term, with the Mid-Autumn Festival holiday approaching, pre-holiday stockpiling expectations still exist, but both the cost side and transaction side have weakened, and Pr-Nd prices may move sideways within a narrow range. Whether the upward momentum can follow through still depends on the pace of stockpiling demand release from magnetic material enterprises.

[Pr-Nd oxide consolidates on a subdued note in the afternoon with more seller concessions, dysprosium stable while terbium holds at lows, magnetic material activity moderate] Yesterday, Pr-Nd oxide was affected by fluctuations in futures prices. In the afternoon, seller concessions increased somewhat, while magnetic material enterprises showed weak willingness to enter the market. Low-priced sources remained the mainstay of transactions, with actual shipments limited. Dysprosium oxide quotes held steady, with limited inquiries and sporadic deals. Terbium oxide high-level offers still struggled to find takers, and suppliers made slight price concessions to facilitate shipments, with actual negotiated prices on the lower side.
