Vanadium Weekly Market Overview During 18-22 March, 2019

Date: Mar 25, 2019

www.ferroalloynet.com: This week, the domestic vanadium market is not stable, the overall volume of transactions is not any, and some raw material factories sell goods at low prices. Few steel mills purchase goods and the purchase price is also close to the cost price of downstream alloy plants. Short – term oversupply, let the market activity greatly reduced, some vanadium enterprises have no confidence in the future market. The offer is lower and lower by factories, steel mills take this opportunity to press the price. But because the terminal demand has not been released, there are few transactions. Next week, the end of the month, steel demand for vanadium alloy is bound to gradually increase, vanadium product prices may stop falling to maintain stability.
