The high quotations of ferrovanadium decreased, and the quotations in Liaoning area were mainly in cash at 115,000-116,000 CNY/Ton; individual steel mill’s bidding prices stabilized, but traders purchased cautiously, and retail transactions were few.
In terms of raw materials: the downstream has a strong wait-and-see sentiment towards retail V2O5 flake, and some downstream purchases are expected to be reduced to less than 105,000 CNY/Ton in cash. It is difficult to trade V2O5 flake at high prices, and the shipping attitudes of the holders are different, but most of them say that they will not sell the goods below 105,000 CNY/Ton, and very few companies are bearish about market outlook. The price of V2O5 flake has fallen, and it is also difficult to trade ammonium metavanadate at high prices, but it is still difficult to find sources below 101,000 CNY/Ton in cash.
