SMM March 14 News:
Today, the SMM 1# lead average price rose by 25 yuan/mt from the previous day to 17,300 yuan/mt. Secondary refined lead suppliers, due to poor transactions, expanded ex-factory discounts, with mainstream supplies quoted at a discount of 100-50 yuan/mt to the SMM 1# lead price, while the absolute price remained basically flat compared to the previous day. Today's ex-factory quotes for tax-free refined lead in the market were at 16,250-16,300 yuan/mt. Some downstream battery producers intended to restock on a need basis, but they were still waiting for a price drop due to lead prices fluctuating at highs. Secondary lead smelters reported poor transactions today.
