SMM April 23 News: Today, prices of some specifications in east China declined, while the mainstream remained stable. Oxygen-blown #553 silicon was quoted at 9,600-9,900 yuan/mt, unchanged from the previous day, while #441 silicon was quoted at 9,900-10,100 yuan/mt, down 50 yuan/mt from the previous day.

Spot cargo prices still held an advantage, and some silicon enterprises in the supply side offered discounts due to capital needs, with the center of supply-side quotations continuing to shift downward. Downstream users' stockpiling transactions before the Labour Day holiday were generally subdued, and the market remained relatively stable in recent days, with both upstream and downstream sides holding steady prices. 》Order to view SMM metal spot historical prices

Before the holiday, the black chain is unlikely to see a trend-driven market [SMM Steel Industry Chain Weekly Report].

This week, ferrous metals were in the doldrums, with coking coal and coke staging a mid-week rise. At the beginning of the week, financial markets experienced sharp fluctuations, dragging down sentiment in the ferrous chain and leading to a pullback in futures. Mid-week, Indonesia's cut to coke production quotas drove coking coal and coke futures to lead the gains, though the impact was more pronounced on thermal coal, while coking coal's rise was largely sentiment-driven and short-lived. In the latter part of the week, finished products continued their seasonal inventory buildup, and support from the raw material side weakened, causing the entire ferrous chain to pull back. In the spot market, with the Chinese New Year holiday approaching, purchasing activity slowed down further, with end-users only making limited, as-needed purchases at low prices.
