[selected SMM Weekly report] the rare earth market continues to cool down and the prices of many varieties are adjusted back.

"SMM rare Earth Weekly report" released, the weekly report SMM will select one of the hot topics, prices, market or major changes in the industrial chain information released into a document for your reference.

This week, the domestic rare earth market has cooled down, praseodymium, neodymium, dysprosium, terbium and other mainstream products have varying degrees of pullback; market transactions are sporadic, consumers are cautious to purchase. Light rare earths, lanthanum and cerium still maintain long-term stability, fundamentals and trading conditions have not changed much.

The price of praseodymium and neodymium oxide has fallen back this week, especially as the previous high price began to fall. At present, the phenomenon of demand-side price reduction of praseodymium and neodymium oxide is common, and they are small exploratory enquiries and purchases; at the current good prices within the year, distributors intend to ship goods; most of the quotations of separation plants are still strong, and low prices are not available for the time being. This week, the market is still in the upstream and downstream game, the trading volume is small, and the price center of gravity has moved down slightly. As of Friday, the price of praseodymium-neodymium oxide was 33.8-342000 yuan / ton, down 1000 yuan / ton from last Friday; the price of praseodymium-neodymium metal was 43-436000 yuan / ton, down 3500 yuan / ton from last Friday.

In terms of medium and heavy rare earths, products such as terbium and gadolinium are under pressure this week. The trading of terbium oxide has remained inactive in the past half a month. After the previous price has rushed all the way, the market has entered a period of consolidation and recovery, and downstream consumption has not fully followed up. At present, the market has a strong wait-and-see mood and procurement is still cautious. Dysprosium oxide prices have also been weak recently due to the lack of support for orders. At present, consumers are not very active in purchasing, with few enquiries and pessimism about the future. The market is very inactive this week, and the quotations of the holders are relaxed as a whole. As of Friday, the price of terbium oxide was 4870-4920 yuan / kg, down 55 yuan / kg from last Friday; the price of metal terbium was 6220-6270 yuan / kg, down 30 yuan / kg from last Friday; and the price of dysprosium oxide was 1740-1760 yuan / kg, down 50 yuan / kg from last Friday.

The resource tax law came into effect this week, with a fixed tax rate for medium and heavy rare earths, reduced from 27% to 20%, and a wide tax rate of 7% for light rare earths and 12% for light rare earths. While reducing the costs of manufacturers, whether this adjustment will also affect the price of the market needs to be treated with caution.
