[SMM Weekly Review of Cobalt Intermediate Products Market: Stable Operation of Spot Prices for Cobalt Intermediate Products] This week, the spot prices for cobalt intermediate products operated steadily. On the supply side, mainstream producers continued to supply under long-term contracts and suspended spot order quotations. Currently, only trader-sourced goods are circulating in the market, with traders maintaining relatively high quotations. After completing some inventory replenishment in the early stage, downstream producers' willingness to purchase declined this week, and the market sentiment was characterized by strong wait-and-see attitudes, resulting in very few spot transactions of cobalt intermediate products. It is expected that next week, with no significant improvement in short-term supply and demand, the spot prices for cobalt intermediate products may remain stable.
