Analysis of Latest Tungsten Market from Chinatungsten Online
On Monday, tungsten prices remained firm, partly due to the clear hoarding by mines and smelters to support the market, and partly due to relatively strong quotations released by industry institutions and listed tungsten companies in Jiangxi last Friday. Currently, supply is relatively limited, with holders controlling their sales pace to maintain prices. On the demand side, speculative buying has increased, while actual consumption remains cautious, focusing on rigid demand. It is expected that the tungsten market will maintain a stable price level in the short term due to the tight supply-demand balance; however, the actual volume and sustainability of transactions need further verification.
