[SMM Tungsten Daily Review: Cost Support Continues to Strengthen, Tungsten Market Prices Awaiting Increase With Rebounding Confidence]
As the New Year approaches, the tungsten market is expected to see restocking driven by rigid demand, with potential concentrated releases after the holiday. This has injected confidence into the upstream market, and market sentiment remains positive.
Negotiations for 55% black tungsten concentrate prices are centered around 141,000 yuan/mt, while APT prices have risen to 211,000 yuan/mt, though trading volume has not yet increased significantly. Tungsten powder prices remain stable for now, with an increase in inquiries, but actual transactions will require further observation after the holiday.
Overall, tungsten prices have shown signs of stabilizing, but an upward trend still requires more support from trading volume.
