Ferro-vanadium prices have shown signs of rising in recent days, as availability weakens and demand picks up.
由于市场现货资源减少以及需求状况好转,近日欧洲钒铁价格释放出拉涨的信号。
Metal Bulletin’s European quotation rose to $24.50-25 per kg on Friday November 8, overcoming fears that it could drop below $23.
根据英国《金属导报》报价显示,11月8日周五欧洲钒铁价格上涨至24.5-25元/千克,消除了前期商家对钒铁价格可能下跌至23美元/千克以下的担忧。
Market participants are now suggesting prices could break through $25 per kg in the coming days, and that for quantities
below 10 tonnes, they already have.
目前,市场参与者认为后期钒铁价格可能突破25美元/千克,并且场内10吨以下的散货成交价格已经实现了该价格水平。
“Producers have been offering above $25, and I know there are some who don’t have any spot material for sale,” a distributor
said.
“生产商对外报价维持在25美元/千克以上,据我了解,市场中许多商家已经没有库存对外出售”,消息人士称。
“When it goes up like it did a few days ago, people start getting nervous .Yesterday was quiet and people are getting ready
for [Metal Bulletin’s international ferro-alloys conference] in Barcelona,” he added.
“当产品价格像几天前一样攀升时,人们就开始变得紧张起来。昨天市场较为安静,商家都在准备金属通报在巴塞罗那的国际铁合金会议”,他补充说。
There is concern, furthermore, over whether any continued rise in prices will be sustainable in the long-term, after ferro-vanadium prices touched $33 per kg earlier in the year, before dropping back to $24, a producer said.
此外,一位生产商表示,当本年钒铁价格接近33美元/千克之后,以及回落至24美元/千克之前,场内商家担忧后期产品价格上涨时候能否持续。
“[The uptick] must be sustainable. From our position now, we can support it because there’s no material for November or
December delivery,” he said.
““这种(上升)趋势必须是可持续的。从我们现在的角度来看,我们坚决挺价,因为11-12月没有库存可以完成交货,”他说。
“We will see what people are doing at the conference,” he added.
“我们会关注商家在会议上的动态“,他补充道。
For now at least, however, prices are still going up, a trader said.
然而,至少现在钒铁价格依旧保持上涨,一位贸易商说。
“Maybe you can still find something below $25, but you would have to look for it,” he said.
“也许你仍然可以寻得一些低于25美元/千克的相对廉价货源,但是你不得不付出较大精力去寻找”,他说。
