441# silicon price trend
Metal silicon prices rose first and then stabilized this week, and the overall rise continued to slow down until the end of the week. The market action force has been slightly insufficient. The supply of silicon plants is tight, there is no pressure on inventory, and the superposition cost supports the high and strong silicon price. According to the data monitoring of business agency, the average price of metal silicon in the domestic market on the 11th was 23910 yuan / ton, up 3.69% from last Friday and 72.53% year-on-year.
The prices of 441# silicon in various regions on the 11th are as follows:
The price range of #441 metal silicon in Huangpu port area is 23800-24000 yuan / ton, with an average price of 23900 yuan / ton; The price range of #441 metallic silicon in Tianjin port area is 23700-24000 yuan / ton, with an average price of 23850 yuan / ton; The price range of #441 metallic silicon in Kunming is 23500-23700 yuan / ton, with an average of 23600 yuan / ton; The price range of #441 metallic silicon in Sichuan is 23400-23600 yuan / ton, with an average of 23500 yuan / ton; The price range of Shanghai #441 metal silicon is 24600-24800 yuan / ton, with an average price of 24700 yuan / ton.
Demand side
In terms of organosilicon DMC, the price rose steadily and slightly. The ex factory quotation of domestic organosilicon DMC was around 35000-37000 yuan / ton, and the average price was 35720 yuan / ton. After the recent continuous rise in prices, the price began to fall, and fell nearly 3000 yuan / ton within the week, making the market confusing again. However, according to the current market, it is unlikely that silicone will continue to rebound and rise, the low pressure in the market will spread, the downstream demand support is insufficient, and the market is mainly adjusted and operated in a narrow range.
In terms of aluminum alloy, the high price of aluminum alloy has dropped, resulting in the customer receiving capacity of aluminum alloy to be studied, and the alloy manufacturers have followed the decline. The factory quotation of aluminum alloy ADC12 is near RMB 22300-22500 / ton. At present, the digestion of inventory is mainly for the just need to replenish the inventory of industrial silicon.
Future forecast
On the whole, traders are mainly cautious in selling goods at this stage. At present, the price is running at a high level, and the factory is reluctant to sell. On the silicon plant side, the quotation is firm because the old order has not been fully delivered, the spot inventory is not much, and the raw material price rises. The market sentiment is short, the enthusiasm of traders and downstream inquiry decreases, and the upstream and downstream game is fierce. With the increase of production in March, the output of metal silicon will increase. It is expected that the rising trend of metal silicon in the future will slow down and the high level will operate stably in the short term.
