Weak and stable operation of metal silicon Market

2022-1-5: entering 2022, the metal silicon market is calm, and the metal silicon products of various brands show a weak stable operation state, with only a slight decrease of 500-100 yuan. At present, the low-grade 553# oxygen is maintained at the ex factory price of 19000-19200 yuan / ton, and the price of individual low iron calcium products is about 300-500 yuan higher, which has no decline. 3303# and 421# and other products decreased to 21500-22500 yuan / ton, which has been stable for about a week.

At present, the main reasons for the difficulty in the rise and fall of the transaction price in the metal silicon market are as follows: first, the factory is still profitable this year, and the capital is slightly abundant compared with previous years. There is no urgent need to return the capital to pay the electricity fee and settle the payment for raw materials at the end of the year, so there is less concession shipment; Second, the social inventory of metal silicon is still surplus. Downstream factories and individual traders prepared goods years ago. Although the demand is large, a small number of just needed orders are placed in batches, which is difficult to stimulate the market.

Therefore, it is more reasonable to maintain the current price difference of 2500-3000 yuan between high and low brands and a small amount of profit for the silicon plant. Later changes in electricity price and coal price may cause fluctuations in the metal silicon market.
