The price of tungsten concentrate remains high, hovering around $18,000.0/ton. Merchants are still waiting for price increases, while downstream end-users are relatively cautious about purchasing at high prices. Short-term market negotiations are on hold as stakeholders await clearer signals from the news.

Ammonium paratungstate (APT) prices are stabilizing around $300.3/mtu, with cost pressures still evident. Both middlemen traders and downstream users are cautious in their inquiries, leading to subdued market transactions.

Tungsten powder prices face significant resistance around $40.0/kg, while the price of tungsten carbide powder remains stable at around $39.4/kg. Market trading activity is low, with alloy stocking demands not yet concentrated, and speculative sentiments evident in the market.

The price of 70% tungsten ferroalloy remains stagnant at around $26,285.7/ton, with cost factors being the main support for the market. Demand constraints are the focus of spot negotiations, with strong wait-and-see sentiment in the market and tepid transactions.

The price of waste tungsten grinding materials is temporarily stable around $0.33 per degree, while the price of bars remains stagnant at around $29.9/kg. Market trading enthusiasm is limited, with divergent confidence in price movements, and some profit-taking actions restraining the market focus.
