Fugu magnesium Union and orchid carbon Association save themselves

 

It is reported that the prices of various raw materials for the production of raw magnesium and coke powder (blue carbon and clean carbon) have been rising continuously, especially the soaring price of raw coal, which makes the high production cost even worse. The production cost is seriously inversely linked with the sales price, and the production and operation pressure has increased sharply, and the situation is grim. Therefore, Fugu Magnesium Association and orchid charcoal Association held an emergency meeting at 9:00 a.m. on December 3, 2020 to analyze the current market situation and discuss countermeasures.

 

Affected by the news, the price of magnesium ingot rose sharply.

 

Previously, affected by the epidemic situation, the export of magnesium ingots was not smooth, and the demand of downstream automobile industry was weak in the first half of the year. The demand for new magnesium alloy was weak, and the price of magnesium fell continuously from January to September. Note: high proportion of domestic magnesium ingot

 

In the middle and late September, the price of magnesium ingot hit the bottom. It is reported that the average price in the third quarter dropped to 12700 yuan / ton, with a 3.3% month on month decrease and 14.7% year-on-year decrease. Magnesium smelting profit (after tax) fell to the low level of 775 yuan / ton, down 60.3% compared with the beginning of the year.

 

In late September, the influencing factors of cost side factors were enlarged, the price was low, the profit was meager, the magnesium plant’s willingness to stand up for price rose, and the price was tentatively raised for shipment; subsequently, the long short game intensified, and the platform was in shock operation.

 

In the middle of November, foreign orders were purchased intensively, and the number of inquiries increased. The second round of rebound market started. After nearly two weeks of pulling up, the market gradually entered the stage of long short stalemate. Market trading performance slowed down compared with the previous period, and downstream customers began to operate cautiously.

 

At the beginning of December, the willingness of Magnesium Ingot Industry Group to support the price rose, and the price rose sharply.
