Spot : This week, the manganese silicon market has been operating steadily and weakly, with a significant increase in supply and weak demand. The market's enthusiasm for inquiries is not high, and the trading volume is normal. The manufacturer offers with a wait-and-see attitude. Some manufacturers in Ningxia mainly focus on pre delivery hedging orders, while retail and steel mills have fewer new orders. Yunnan's electricity discount has increased, resulting in an increase in output.

To sum up:This week, HeSteel launched its July steel bidding, but pricing is currently unclear. Traders mainly rely on inquiry and are cautious when entering the market for procurement. Overall, the consolidation of silicon manganese is weak in the short term, and the downward trend of the market may affect the pricing of steel bidding to some extent. It is recommended to be cautious and wait and see.
