Tyrant stocks are still dawdling to cast a rare earth products

Recently , IPO floodgates soon apparently brought to the A-share endless pressure on the Chinese stock market volatility uncertain. On the other hand , " May Day" holiday nationwide 54 city property , " cold " , the real estate market turning point has been largely established. In the stock market, property market outlook is so bleak situation , more and more investors are beginning to look for new investments. As a national strategic rare earth materials into a lot of " Tyrant " who invested choose a new direction .

South Exchange Trading Center of rare earth products , official data showed , since its inception in November 2013 , and its rare earth products in just a few months the average daily trading volume had reached 100 million yuan or so.

Stable and rising prices rose rare earth sector collective

Rare WTO dispute against China triggered a chain reaction. Recently, the State Reserve Bureau has signed with six rare earth rare earth group purchasing and storage agreements , purchasing and storage of rare earth is expected to heat up again . Yesterday , the market prices of warming, the rare earth sector collective surge.

South Exchange Trading Center for Rare Wu Haiming analysis for Southern Reporter says : WTO losing or detonate the rare earth industry market deregulation , the future is expected with rare gold and silver , as with property investment goods . "After a prolonged decline in the fourth quarter of 2013 , rare earth prices are close to the bottom level of mid-2013 period. Expected future prices of rare earth stable and rising . The listed company has mining rights Baotou Steel Rare Earth , Xiamen Tungsten , etc. the first to benefit . "

RE quota system is facing cancellation

Analysts Teng Vietnam Southern Reporter yesterday analysts said : the national reserve of rare earth is only short-term stimulus . Rare earth prices and long-term trend, the market will depend on supply and demand . Currently the macroeconomic impact of the domestic demand for rare earth is not very strong.

But she noted , WTO dispute against China's rare earth policy or Forced acceleration. WTO ruling on China 's rare earth export restrictions imposed in violation of WTO rules, to support the claims of the United States , European Union and Japan . "We believe that rare case continued against China has announced a two-year , rare earth quota system will face cancellation of the outcome, when a +5 Rare Earth Group consolidation underway at this time point, or accelerate the introduction of new government policies . "
Non-ferrous metals industry analyst Shi Yi pointed out in its research report : WTO to eliminate tariffs faced losing quota Forced parties to implement industrial policies to support prices pick up as soon as possible . 6 square Minmetals Rare Earth Rare Earth Group , Baotou Steel Rare Earth , China Aluminum Group , Xiamen Tungsten , Ganzhou Rare Earth and Rare Earth Group Guangdong direct benefit.

"I have to Ganzhou Rare Earth Industry survey , and local leaders exchange. At the time that the government should not attempt to control the market price of rare earth. To introduce private capital into the rare earth industry , market -oriented operation. The WT O dispute will certainly lose . " Shenzhen well-known venture capital for Southern reporter who said, " The government now only need to grab the source of good, concerned about environmental protection , requires companies to repair damage to the mountain , the price of rare earth naturally going up . "

South Exchange Trading Center for Rare Wu Haiming yesterday Southern Reporter analysis pointed out that the main application of rare earth permanent magnet , optical conductivity and catalytic three aspects , Japan has many patents in the relevant field , is a big country of rare earth application . The field of application of rare earth in China is underdeveloped , limited demand . Therefore, Japanese companies tend to give China a rare order, one after the two sides bargain deal. " For a long time , China 's rare earth although rare metals property, but sold only a dirt price. Many strict customs inspection , in accordance with other general merchandise exported. "

He pointed out : After losing WT O Chinese rare earth industry faces market deregulation . Through market behavior , China rare earth prices can be controlled , it steadily. "There are not rare in the world pricing system . The original bargaining system , but with the establishment of China 's rare earth trading platform , the final say will be gradually shifted from the buyer , the seller have the final say in the transition to the stage of the Chinese pricing system . "
Rare Earth will become investment goods , good listed companies

According to Wu Haiming introduction , if not the trading platform , China rare earth kind annually sell about 30 billion amount , and in the rare electronic trading platform , if there are 20 times the turnover per year can produce 600 billion electronic trading volume space. This will make the investment of private capital into the rare earth in the past , the real value of the rare earth reflected . " As a result, the trading platform has become the norm of rare earth oxides , securitization, electronic, circulation of goods monetization , or will become the gold, silver, after yet another international investments. Gradually evolved from pure rare earth products into industrial investment goods . Because the threshold is very low, greatly mobilized the participation of private capital reserve, so that prices are no longer decided by Japanese buyers. End- market instruments to promote rare earth prices rose steadily , which owns mining exploration rights 1 + 5 Rare Earth Group , a direct long-term positive . "

The more the analyst Teng of Southern Reporter analysis, electronic trading rare indeed increased financial investment properties of rare earth. But in the long term, or to raise the level of Chinese enterprises in the downstream application of rare earth , rare earth demand is expanding its .

Part of the rare earth oxides stable and little decrease, small changes in the mainstream market

Today, the rare earth market businesses offer a smooth or slightly lower , the product has a slight change of lanthanum, cerium oxide, praseodymium oxide, neodymium , dysprosium oxide , etc., to adjust the small, little change in the mainstream market .

According to the manufacturers with Baotou I know that a lot of stable oxide prices than last year , prices were little changed . Metals such as neodymium and praseodymium oxide, praseodymium , neodymium is currently without a ticket is still 360,000 and 285,000 yuan / ton. The lanthanum oxide , cerium oxide with ticket prices have been 2-2.1 Million / tonne between shock . Ganzhou region for nearly two months 4N traders quote lanthanum oxide has been 22,000 yuan / ton, slightly lower today, the offer of $ 1,000 / ton. Similarly 3N cerium oxide with a vote of 20,000 / ton, slightly down .

Last week a lot of different levels of suppliers raised dysprosium dysprosium and iron oxide quote , now, offer a smooth , slightly lower in both cases . Last weekend and early this week quoted dysprosium oxide is more concentrated at 170 yuan / ton , the current price of some suppliers slightly adjusted to 168 yuan / ton, quoted before dysprosium iron at 180 yuan / ton , slightly down 20,000 yuan / ton.

Restricted demand , vendors reflect neodymium oxide, erbium short-term price rise not up , the understanding with the business , both now with ticket prices are around 320,000 yuan / ton, unchanged from April, priced the same period , but decreased slightly over the previous two weeks. Smooth grass Shen praseodymium oxide market price or decreased slightly , reflecting the situation suppliers are now without a ticket about 545,000 / ton, with votes are reported in 58-60 yuan / ton are .

Rare earth praseodymium oxide transaction preferences, the spot market price stable gadolinium

RE market remains stable now deserted , the majority of businesses that do not change in price . Nearly a week of rare earth prices have been steady for the most important reason is no one of both supply and demand has a strong influence on the supply side there is a unilateral price increase demand, but limited by the demand price was not much room . Although it is expected that the demand affected by the market downturn before , unable to tend to cause prices fell sharply .

Today Baotou Rare Earth Exchange trading performance relative strength praseodymium oxide , cerium oxide and only slightly lower than the trading volume of yttrium oxide , but more than any other single rare earth oxides such as erbium oxide, neodymium oxide, praseodymium and neodymium . Europium, terbium , lutetium oxide deal more scarce . As of 14:00 praseodymium oxide volume is close to 4 tons , much higher than other trading volume on May Day .

A high degree of market attention praseodymium , neodymium , dysprosium, gadolinium and other products currently stable prices. According to a supplier Ganzhou said gadolinium oxide is now the price is still consistent with last week, with no votes at 130,000 yuan / ton, while gadolinium iron with no votes at around 145,000 / ton. After understanding with other manufacturers , with a vote of gadolinium oxide is currently quoted at about 155,000 yuan / ton , up gadolinium iron 1-1.4 yuan / ton. Most of the time since January , the mainstream price of gadolinium oxide is more concentrated around 15-15.5 million / tonne fluctuations , higher than last year's overall price volatility is also lower than last year. Another business to reflect this year to the lowest shipping price gadolinium oxide are 145,000 , higher shipping prices during the 165,000 / ton.

China Rare Earth pain is just a narrow nationalist myth

U.S., EU and Japan to prosecute Chinese restrictions on rare earths , tungsten, molybdenum exports, China has put forward " protecting the environment " is a very Western way of saying to refute , and WTO ( World Trade Organization ) eventually stand on the side of the United States , ruled against China , requiring China to eliminate export restrictions on rare earth. Our topic for today talking about here . In this regard, the British " Financial Times" said, " This is a major victory in the United States , European Union and Japan made ​​", while Japanese media is unashamedly commented , "China 's strategy failed completely ."

As we all know , a long time, there is the rare earth industry , " gold" , is widely used in cutting-edge technology and defense fields. If the 20th century was the century of oil , then the 21st century is the century of rare earths . However, due to the relevant technical and other reasons, but in the rare earth mining process on the environment caused great damage to our country but also because a large number of long-term supply of rare earths to the global market , has paid a heavy environmental price .

Rising prices of rare earth , rare earth goodbye to the West " cabbage price " era , they shouted unfair . The long-term in China accounted for only 36 percent of the world's total reserves , but supplies the world market for more than 90 % of the rare earths , is this fair? In this regard , some analysts have responded by saying that we are outside the bargaining , they can promote the " China to only 23 percent of rare earth reserves , long-term supply more than 90 percent of the global market demand, China 's contribution is enormous ."

Wang Tao of the article says, but should be realistic and admit that China is about 100 million 2 million tons of rare earth reserves , the world's total annual supply of 120,000 tons of market demand just enough to supply around 1000 . Today, many people still remain in China's rare earth reserves account for 90 percent of the world's era of old data , the data itself is not wrong . 30 years ago, China Baotou Bayan Obo found in thousands of tons of rare earth minerals, then in addition to China , other foreign reserves have been found in very small , so China 's rare earth reserves account for 90 % of the then world's proven reserves.

But , after all, 30 years ago laohuangli , but also to be noted that the light rare earth reserves are talking about here are light rare earths , as time goes by , the world discovered thirty years ago, not long from to 20 million tons , soared to more than 600 million tons now . Despite China's own reserves have increased several times, but new discoveries outside of China 's rare earth reserves , but for almost a hundredfold increase over the dilution of our accounting . The results will produce a lot of spreading false argument.

What is " China 's rare earth reserves less and less ", " two-thirds of China's rare earth resources have been dug , sold abroad to a " sort of . In fact, this is totally misunderstood . So what China's own reserves increased by how much? Data show that China 's reserves of light rare earth , to the maximum exploitation of domestic mining enterprises the ability to calculate , even at full capacity in two to three hundred years also dug endless . Thus , rare earth obviously belongs only to general resources , not scarce resources. Hard to say which is a scarce resource, what needs to be diminishing quotas to enhance the protection , then losing in the WTO , and not surprisingly it.

User Qingqing reprint this article said, the participating countries under the WTO framework is general products do not restrict exports , implementing protection policies only for scarce resources . Otherwise certainly be lost , and in the appeals process is not much room for maneuver. In addition, civil been widely rumored , " resource-poor Japan has been China 's big purchase certain resources , and buried in the sea to save up to prepare for the coming decades purposes ." In this classic segment yard, so-called " China 's XX Resources" are all sorts of different minerals plus noun, from "Coal " to " rare " and so forth.

But if asked specific burial place , operating time, the number of burial , the other side of prevarication . To know that we have today is not the lack of information era , multi asked if we will be able to find a few flaws . China " Rare pain" myth , in fact, some experts and scholars , the use of readers ( including most government officials ) lack of professional weakness , and preached up . Let's dissect what "rare earth pain" comes from. First, once accounted for 90 percent of the changes in the world until now only 23% of the proportion , but made ​​no mention of specific reserves by changing the data from the China Rare Earth .

Mistaken about China's rare earth dug over, but not foreign , but kept the dig , so the ratio of Chinese stocks declined. Next, is preaching what with the rapid economic development in China , the few remaining existing reserves of rare earth , it will be difficult to meet the needs of China 's own development. Coming soon become a net importer , we will not only spend a few times , hundreds of times the money is more likely to be clamped in the strategic western countries . Ultimately, it is natural to conclude that such a treasured resource , and now they are a lot of cheap exports , depleted, so the threat to the future development of China itself , of course, to launch a "rare earth Battle " was.

As we all know , the annual consumption / ratio of proven reserves of more than 100 years , generally fall out of the scope of scarce resources , more than 500 years , can be seen as basically almost infinite number of excess resources . Rare , especially light rare earths , the world discovered a few decades ago is not more than the amount of the era , was then regarded as a strategic resource , this is normal. Exploration results available to more and more today , light rare earth reserves outside of China are enough to supply the world in 5000 , with China , can supply 6000 years.

Wang Tao 's article concluded by stressing that , from the facts, just a light rare earth resources in general , rather than scarce resources. Neither the value of specialized security , and no strategic significance of bargaining , but giving others a handle . Is this not scarce in the world can say abundant, while consumption is still meager light rare earth , do not have protection, meaning there is no protection . China initiated this so-called "rare earth Battle " Unfortunately, the start was wrong, all wrong on the way , the result is of course ridiculously wrong .

Japan wants China to continue to be refused sale of rare earth

"The Middle East has oil , China has rare earths. "This is the late Chinese leader Deng Xiaoping said in 1992 sentence. However , the rare precious than oil , but failed to China in exchange for considerable wealth . Touches Japan , the United States and other countries with large rare earth resources by buying cheap Chinese rare earths , establish a " hidden " strategic reserve. It is said that Japan 's rare earth deposits in the seabed available for their use at least 20 years . Japan wants China to continue the recent sale of rare earth is rejected, can be described as a setback in Japan arrogance.

When China began last disorderly exploitation of rare earth resources for reflection and decision to limit exports of rare earths , Europe and Japan, but not dry. On the high-level economic dialogue has just ended, Japan has repeatedly asked China to expand exports of rare earth. Such illogical requirements, China has to be a clear rebuff .

Japan's high-profile pressure on China

The so-called rare earths , referring to the periodic table of lanthanum (La), cerium (Ce), praseodymium (Pr), neodymium (Nd) , a total of 17 kinds of rare elements. RE can be widely used in hybrid cars , mobile phones, superconductors , and precision-guided weapons and other high-tech fields , and thus has a "21st -century gold " in the world .

Since 2007 , China began to implement a mandatory plan for rare earth production and begin to reduce exports of rare earths . This year, the Commerce Department issued a rare earth export quotas for 2009 plummeted more than 40 %. It is reported that China 's rare earth export quotas next year will continue to shrink. China 's rare earth export restriction measures , provoked strong reactions United States and Europe and other Western world. Last June, the U.S. and EU appeals WTO restrictions on Chinese exports of strategic rare earth and other materials . Recently, Japan has also joined the ranks of high-profile pressure on China .

METI declared in mid- August , since China announced in July this year to reduce exports of rare earth since some of the rare earth elements market prices have risen by 20 %. Japanese media also agreed that China 's rare earth limit sell orders, and the consequent rise in prices , so many Japanese Companies " nervous ." On the high-level economic dialogue held in Beijing last week , Japan is perseverance mentioned on several occasions to the Chinese rare earth issues , requiring China to relax restrictions on exports of rare earths , said the sudden decrease in exports of rare earths is " the impact of global production chain . "

For intensive pressure on the Japanese side , the Chinese government to be a rational and effective response. Chinese Commerce Minister Chen Deming during high-level economic dialogue on the media explained that China is not only for the rare earth export restrictions , but to the mining , production, trade restrictions throughout the chain , such an approach is in line with WTO rules .

Chen also stressed that restrictions on exports of rare earths is for both to promote economic growth while protecting the environment and national security considerations , such as a combination of factors . He admits , " Chinese know that such restrictions on Japanese companies and related industries in China 's influence , but a last resort. "

Reporters noted that the Chinese government against the Japanese side on the issue of rare earth pressure response , as well as the implementation of China 's rare earth strategy recently , Chinese Internet users almost unanimously applauded . Some netizens message said : " this is long overdue , and rare earth export restrictions related to the lifeline of the country ...... ah ! " There are friends, said:" The support of export restrictions , not always what we sell , what is synonymous with cheap goods ! "

Japan reap cheap Chinese rare earth

Analysts believe that Japan's restrictions on Chinese exports of rare earths is so sensitive , in fact, not difficult to understand , because Japan Nearly nine out of rare earths imported from China , is the biggest beneficiary of cheap Chinese rare earth.

China rare earth industry insiders pointed out that Japan is currently the country to achieve the highest value-added use of rare earths in the world for high-tech sectors accounted for more than 90 percent of its rare earth consumption. By import prices from cheap Chinese rare earth materials , processed and then sell high-tech products , the Japanese can earn substantial economic benefits. Because after rare-earth prices are often comparable after processing of gold and diamonds.

As we all know , China is the world's most resource -rich countries of rare earth reserves account for about one-third of the world, but the current production has accounted for 95% of the world. 1990s , China began large-scale mining and export of rare earth in low mining costs (without considering environmental costs ) , the Chinese dominated the world of cheap rare earths market , most of the country and therefore stopped the mining of rare earth.

In rare praseodymium, neodymium , for example, in southern China 's rare earth production cost of about $ 30 per kilogram, while the United States had been archived Mans登帕斯mine production costs up to $ 40 per kilogram. When prices remain at 35-40 U.S. dollars per kilogram , the United States is no need to own the mining of rare earth resources .

Although the Chinese Rare Earth occupies about 95% of the world market , but because of China rare earth enterprises failed to form a scale , the lack of a unified regulatory , disorderly competition and the prevalence of smuggling , resulting in the status of China's " first rare big country" failed to appropriately into the pricing of rare earth. In 1990-2005 , China's export volume of rare although increased nearly 10 times the average price has dropped to half in 1990 when . No wonder users generally lamented , China is selling precious rare "earth " or " cabbage" price.

On the cheap and without restrictions in China to sell rare occasion , Japan and other countries the opportunity to acquire and store a large amount of rare earth . Rare earth resources in Inner Mongolia province in China to one industry estimate , of rare earth resources in Japan have been enough to save four or five or even ten years . In this regard, Chinese media pointed out that 30 years later, the world's largest rare earth origin --- Inner Mongolia Baotou Bayan Obo mine may be no recoverable ; while China has to rely on imports of rare earth development of the electronics industry in Japan , to Shique sitting on ample rare earth resources. It may take several hundred times higher than the current price , imported from abroad, China rare earth when !


Illusion manufactured in developed countries
When the United States and Europe complain that China 's rare earth export restrictions policy , on the grounds that it would make a lot of industries are affected, thus threatening its economy and "national security ." For example , Japan's Mitsui & Company RE department head Yoichi Sato recently told the British "Times" interview, said the tightening of China 's rare earth export industry is facing one of Japan's "invisible tsunami ."

But in fact, the above argument is completely untenable West . First, according to the U.S. energy policy analyst Mark Han Fuli report submitted to Congress on July 28 , last year , China's rare earth reserves account for 36% of world output accounted for 97% of the world ; United States, Russia , Australia's rare earth reserves are accounting for 13 % of the world , 19% and 3.6% , but its production was zero. It seems that in other countries is not without rare earth resources , but is " frozen" Bale.

Second, even if China 's rare earth export restrictions in recent years , but still rare in the world market oversupply . According to Chinese industry authoritative report last year, 94 of the world's rare earth production was 12 million tons, but the world's rare earth consumption of only about 90,000 tons ; expected 2010 output of 13 million tons , an oversupply situation is still difficult to change. Seen in this light , Japan and other countries to limit exports of rare earths concerns about China , mainly worried about the future of China to further tighten the export of rare earth , rare earth prices in the international market will correspondingly increase.

In addition, China in environmental protection and other strategic resources to protect their own grounds , entirely reasonable . In the past two decades crazy exploitation of rare earth resources , China has paid a high environmental price . A typical example is the town of Xingning Ning Zou Tao village in Guangdong province was once a beautiful village , but after years of mining rare , serious water pollution locally a few years ago when the rare earth mine was sealed dust , abandoned farmland , the resident population dropped from 700 people to 100 people.

Development of high-tech is the key

Rare earths are a non-renewable resource , and related to the development of future high-tech and defense technology. In this sense, China 's rare earth strategic matter of national security . Analysts pointed out that China can take advantage of rare earth resources , the key lies in the development of Chinese high-tech industries . Otherwise , even if China 's exports of rare earth resources are not in the country it is difficult to be fully utilized. This is the Chinese Society of Rare Earths , Deputy Secretary-General Zhang Anwen said, " In addition to the development of rare earth rare earth effort ," the true meaning of this sentence.

And Japan will be used more than 90% of rare earth high-tech stark contrast, the Chinese rare earths are used in traditional areas , used less than 50% of the high-tech sectors ; especially in the field of rare earth new materials , China has almost no independent intellectual property rights.

China rare earth industry insight also said that because China is only limited export of rare earth materials , and therefore , more likely to foreign companies to set up factories in mainland China , of rare earth resources, simple processing for export , which is actually disguised so that China 's rare earth export quota is exceeded . Thus, the final loss is still subject to Chinese . Thus, the Chinese want to use and maintain their valuable resources , the key is to develop advanced rare earth processing technologies.
