Molybdenum Price - September 19, 2025

Molybdenum market update on September 19, 2025

This week, the domestic molybdenum price overall exhibited downward pressure, primarily due to heightened profit-taking awareness among suppliers and increased price suppression sentiment from downstream users.

This week, molybdenum concentrate prices decreased from approximately 4,560 yuan to around 4,470 yuan, while ferromolybdenum prices dropped from about 291,000 yuan to approximately 284,000 yuan.

From a bullish perspective, first, the robust development of downstream molybdenum industries and the current "Golden September and Silver October" consumption peak season have boosted consumer enthusiasm for inquiries and purchases; as of now, the total ferromolybdenum volume tendered in September has exceeded 10,000 tons. Second, supported by production costs, suppliers have limited room to offer discounts.

From a bearish perspective, influenced by the Federal Reserve's interest rate cut, China's molybdenum imports may increase while exports could decrease. Additionally, low steel bidding prices, currently high molybdenum product prices, and increased output from some molybdenum producers have further strengthened suppliers' willingness to lower prices and recover funds.

In terms of news, on September 18, the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) of the Federal Reserve announced a 25-basis-point interest rate cut, lowering the federal funds rate target range to 4%–4.25%. This marks the Federal Reserve's resumption of interest rate cuts after a 9-month hiatus.
