【Market Dynamics】
Currently, large-scale stockpiling purchases from downstream have yet to emerge, and many smelters have begun to gradually suspend production for maintenance. In the ongoing tug-of-war between costs and demand, the upstream and downstream segments of the industry chain are showing differentiation. As the Chinese New Year approaches, the phenomenon of high prices but low transactions is becoming increasingly evident.
Although there are slight upward price intentions in some regions, actual transactions remain challenging, with poor alignment between market supply and demand. Most actual transactions are still negotiated based on demand, resulting in limited overall market momentum.
