[SMM Titanium Spot Cargo Update: Weak Demand Leads to Pressure on Titanium Metal Prices Today] SMM reported on July 30 that the quoted price for TA1 titanium ingot was 57,000-58,000 yuan/mt, for TA2 titanium ingot was 55,000-56,000 yuan/mt, and for TC4 titanium ingot was 63,000-65,000 yuan/mt today.

SMM reported on July 30 that today, the quoted price for TA1 titanium ingot is 57,000-58,000 yuan/mt, TA2 titanium ingot is 55,000-56,000 yuan/mt, and TC4 titanium ingot is 63,000-65,000 yuan/mt.

Today, the titanium metal market is under pressure. The procurement demand for titanium materials from traditional industries continues to shrink, leaving titanium material processing enterprises in a dire situation with a lack of orders and a shrinking market size. Titanium smelters in the Baoji region are facing severe "rat race" competition, and the survival pressure on enterprises is increasing. Meanwhile, the supply of sponge titanium in the market has surged significantly, while the growth rate of downstream titanium material demand has been sluggish, resulting in an oversupply situation in the market. Affected by this, the processing fee for titanium ingot continues to decline. Coupled with the downward trend in the price of raw material sponge titanium, the price of titanium ingot is under pressure.

Silicon Metal Market Review for January and Outlook for February
In January, the silicon metal market experienced a relatively loose supply-demand balance, with a theoretical inventory buildup of approximately 30,000 mt. In February, both supply and demand contracted simultaneously, and the market is expected to show a tight balance or minor destocking. The current high industry inventory still requires time to be digested, and the sustainability of destocking remains a key variable affecting price trends and market sentiment.

A plant in northern China is calling for bids for indium ingots and bismuth ingots
SMM, February 6 - According to SMM’s investigation of market information, a large smelter in northern China began public bidding for a certain quantity of indium ingots and bismuth ingots starting yesterday. Market sources indicate that the starting price for these indium ingots exceeds 4,000 yuan per kilogram, while the starting price for bismuth ingots is above 150,000 yuan per ton. The bidding results are expected to be announced before the Spring Festival. Market participants note that, given the clear trend of sluggish trading activity ahead of the Spring Festival, the timing of this bidding is not ideal. However, the relatively favorable starting prices have generated considerable market anticipation for the outcome of the bidding.
