SHANGHAI, May 11 (SMM) - China’s LCO output stood at 6,020 mt in April, up 15% MoM ad 6% YoY. On the supply side, the output of leading LCO manufacturers increased in April, while that of others rose to varying degrees or changed little. As the sales promotions for electronics products (June 18) are approaching, electronics battery cell makers began to stock up raw materials. However, due to the slow recovery of orders at battery cell makers, the demand for LCO improved only mildly. The rebound of battery-grade lithium carbonate prices pushed up the costs of LCO plants, allowing LCO prices to rise as well. LCO plants raised raw material purchases and production as their sentiment has improved.
SMM predicts that the domestic LCO output will stand at 6,418 mt in May, up 9% MoM and 7% YoY. However, the cumulative output in January-May may decline 30% YoY.
