This week, the spot price of cobalt intermediate products rose. On the supply side, upstream producers generally suspended spot order quotations to ensure supply for long-term contract customers. The expected delivery time for some long-term contracts was extended. Only some traders were trading and shipping goods in the market, and the overall supply of circulating goods in the market was relatively low. A small number of downstream producers experienced a shortage of raw materials, and the overall enthusiasm for inquiries and purchases increased somewhat, with actual transactions of cobalt intermediate products showing some improvement. It is expected that next week, the short-term supply-demand pattern is unlikely to improve, and the spot price of cobalt intermediate products may fluctuate upward.
