It is learned that, this haze affecting the entire North China, Henan as well as parts of Shanxi, Shandong and Shaanxi has forced a number of cored wire and raw material manufacturers to suspend production under primary control. Additionally, the Spring Festival holiday is coming. So, the operating rate will be relatively low from January to mid-February. It is expected that the market for cored wire and its raw materials will be in short supply after the Spring Festival holiday. At that time, perhaps the price of raw materials will rise, while the cored wire manufacturers mainly rely on the orders of their regular customers so that they can hardly take the opportunity to raise the prices. However, in general, comparing with the current placidity, prices will still fluctuate to a certain extent, which will be a chain effect triggered by the prolonged and widespread haze.

 

At present, the cored wire market is still steady with no obvious change in the prices of various products. Calcium silicon cored wire (Ca28Si55∮13mm) is 10,500 to 11,500 yuan per ton. Calcium silicon cored wire (Ca30Si58) is 11,800 to 12,300 yuan per ton. Solid pure calcium cored wire (Ca98%min∮9mm) is 10,500 to 11,000 yuan per ton. Ferro calcium cored wire (Ca30∮13mm) is 8,300 to 8,800 yuan per ton. Ferro calcium cored wire (Ca30∮30mm) is 10,000 to 10,500 yuan per ton. Carbon cored wire (C98%∮13mm) is 6,500 to 7,000 yuan per ton. Silicon magnesium cored wire (Si40Mg28Re2∮13mm) is 11,500 to 12,500 yuan per ton. Ferro titanium cored wire (Ti30%min∮13mm) is 11,000 to 11,100 yuan per ton. Nodulizer cored wire is 11,500 to 11,800 yuan per ton. Ca28 (natural block) is 10,100 yuan per ton. Ca30 (natural block) is 10,300 yuan per ton. Metal crude calcium is 15,100-15,300 yuan per ton. Cold rolled strip steel SPCC 0.35-0.45mm is 5,100 yuan per ton, SPCC 0.35*55 Q195 is 4,470 yuan per ton, SPCC0.35-0.39*55 is 4,500 yuan per ton and SPCC0.4-0.49*55 is 4,450 yuan per ton. Seamless metal calcium cored wire (Ca98%min∮9mm) is 10,000 to 11,000 yuan per ton and seamless metal calcium cored wire (Ca98%min∮10mm) is 15,000 to 16,000 yuan per ton.

 

The export transaction price of calcium silicon cored wire (ca30si60∮13mm) is 1,550 to 1,630 US dollars per ton. Calcium silicon cored wire (ca28si55∮13mm) is 1,530 to 1,610 US dollars per ton. Bite type solid core pure calcium core wire (ca98%min∮9mm) is 1,670 to 1,750 US dollars per ton. Pure calcium cored wire (Ca30 ∮13mm) is 1,350 to 1,400 US dollars per ton. There is no adjustment comparing with the last month (FOB price, Tianjin Port).

 

The current situation is expected to continue until the Spring Festival holiday with no large fluctuation in the later market, but after the Spring Festival holiday, to the end of February or early March, once the raw materials are in short supply, fluctuation of certain degree will appear certainly in the later market.
