This week, cobalt intermediate product prices remained weak. Supply side, port inventories were ample, and spot cobalt intermediate products were in abundant circulation. Demand side, post-holiday downstream cobalt smelters resumed operations slowly, leading to limited demand for cobalt intermediate products. Overall, as the oversupply pattern persisted during the week, spot prices continued to decline slightly. Looking ahead, the overall market supply-demand pattern is unlikely to change, and spot prices are expected to fluctuate downward.
