The current rare earth market prices were little changed , holding weak demand , prices subdued . Some businesses are still concerned about purchasing and storage of rare earth information, but there has been no positive response to the official , there are businesses reflect Shouchu started early , by the end of the market is more difficult to change. It is part of the business to reflect current market is relatively calm , stable prices or slightly down slightly , but the next year the market still have positive expectations.

Praseodymium , neodymium market , downstream manufacturers of magnetic reflect fewer orders , or orders not received recently , leading to stop the situation more, less procurement requirements, praseodymium , neodymium prices are weak shocks , short- term outlook is difficult rally .

Dysprosium products market , the recent dysprosium oxide , dysprosium iron prices have remained stable , manufacturers and traders offer little change , the rush to the realization of individual businesses , shipping price is slightly lower . According to Ganzhou suppliers now reflect the price of dysprosium oxide shipments 173-178 yuan / ton. Despite the business to reflect market where there are 1.7 million of supply , but only a minority phenomenon , most suppliers offer remained about 1.75 million yuan / ton. Dysprosium iron market , currently quoted at 178-190 yuan / ton have recently Inquirer less .

Other single oxides, such as praseodymium oxide, neodymium and other prices in recent days were not significantly changed. According to Ganzhou traders said Shen grass now shipping prices praseodymium oxide in 575,000 yuan / ton , unchanged from last week at this price . Neodymium oxide , the supplier can accept the shipping price at around 31.5-32 yuan / ton, and reflect no recent orders, business deserted.

Last week, the Commerce Department reported in 2014 the first batch of rare earth export quotas , volume was essentially flat with the prior year . Rare litigation in the WTO official results coming out of the window period , the Commerce Department export quotas publicity the new year , leading the market for rare earths on efforts to predict the progress of the rectification and increased confusion factor. However, we believe that prices will not change direction . Rare strategic species and therefore the intensity does not change the direction of integration . Although it is a new round of policy window period , but due to the rare earth sector of speculation for many years , and is currently investing in a " not rabbits not spread eagle " state , and therefore did not react much positive expectations on price . On the whole , in the background does not change the direction of integration , either positive factors occur, are expected to push the share price , the rare earth sector continue to be optimistic .

According to Russian media reports, China 's WTO requires its not on the rare earth export quota system " ignored ." China announced the first half of the year 2014 the quota situation , then, will the international market supply 15,110 tons of rare earth materials. And ( 2013 ) in the second half compared to a decrease of 2.5% in quantity .

China controls 95% of the world's rare earth market . November , when , and its largest importer in - the U.S., EU , and Japan 's defeat in World Trade lawsuit . WTO to support these countries against China 's rare earth export restrictions complaint . WTO believes that the quota system violated the free trade regime.

This case has a sensational effect . In the history of the WTO , the first time a player wins three geopolitical monopoly lawsuit against the rare countries in the arbitration court. Everyone is waiting for China's counterclaim , but not limited to counterclaims. China has made to reduce the reverse quotas, quotas and all of a sudden decrease of 2.5 %. World metal market experts believe that this percentage is quite huge. This decision will lead to rare or scarce supply , prices rise.

In this way, China once again so that we understand , will continue to implement its own rules of conduct in this area. Asia-Pacific Research Center Director Sergei ? Luke Ning believes that China's move from their own strategy. He said: " China 's rare earth export restrictions in full compliance with the relevant government strategy to modernize the economy . This decision will force foreign companies to move to China's domestic high-tech production capacity . In addition, through this initiative , China can win a favorable position in the EU, U.S. and Japan on WTO negotiations on aspects of the complaint . It appears that China will conduct negotiations on the issue of its products into the U.S. and European markets . The use of rare earth export quota for the way China is trying in these negotiations Ringside ' terrain ' . Furthermore, Chinese companies use those rare because quotas can not enter the international market , can produce a more competitive high-tech equipment . Then, smoothly into the U.S., EU and Japan markets. "

China introduced new quota of rare earth , even to reduce its supply , it is not unexpected for the experts . Between the major competitors in this trade war or other platforms are periodically increase the number of revolutions . Moreover , the WTO from the essence of reality is there is no effect of leverage. Decisions made ​​by the agency , the most they can become a piece of paper on the table officials , Luke Ning think so.

He said: " Perhaps, the WTO will take some supplementary response measures . For example, you can implement the new tariffs on Chinese exports of equipment. But I think that , in this respect , the WTO may not be able to win anything. Such as the production of rare earth resources needed for electronic goods , almost all concentrated in China . These products accounted for 70-80 % of the world market. Europe can not refuse imports of computer and telephone from China . WTO does not take serious measures against China restrictive . You know, these measures will the company's interests to those engaged in this business a blow . China's export tariff measures utilized complementary , will the United States , European Union and Japan assembled in China these products company profits will cause harm. "

It is worth mentioning that Chinese competitors will continue to keep a close eye to take hold of all aspects of its strategy . Moreover, this pressure will be more severe and more coordinated. Exports of rare earths used to be , the future will be one of the major political and economic leverage China . Designer of China's reform Deng Xiaoping once said that the Middle East has oil , China has rare earths. Now, China 's opponents tried to let it lose this advantage. That is, the trade war will dusty field .

In 2013 , the rare earth industry as a whole is still in a downturn cycle. The industry is facing pressure from the three areas , firstly, the global economic slowdown , sluggish demand ; Second , diversified global supply of rare earth gradually formed ; Third , alternative technologies and the reduction of rare earth technology came into being . 2014 , under the aura of energy saving policy , China 's rare earth industry will usher in new opportunities to promote the application is an important driving force for sustainable development of the industry .

2013 , the global economy there are many uncertainties . In the United States as the representative of the world economy is recovering slowly and with difficulty . European debt crisis , high unemployment rate , the market is likely to have been structural damage , is expected before mid-2014 is difficult to pick up. China 's GDP growth will continue to drop . IMF latest report predicts that in 2013 , China 's economic growth will slow to 7.6 % in 2014 will continue to decline to 7.3 %. Lack of support from the rare earth industry, the macroeconomic level.

Downturn in the market , the Chinese rare earth export quota system in name only. 2013 , China's rare earth export quotas for the 31,001 tons , 30,996 tons and in 2012 was essentially flat . However , affected by the world economic slowdown and other factors raise the price of rare earth export quotas in recent years can not be exhausted. Chinese Customs statistics data show that in 2012 over rare earth ores, metals and compounds exports 16,265 tons , down 3.5% , completed only 52.5 percent of export quotas . Although Chinese exports of rare earths and their products have increased over last year , due to the rare-earth prices fall, the 2013 export value has shrunk dramatically. As of October , China 's total exports of 377.8 million tons of rare earth and its products , representing an increase of 14.9% ; contrast , exports amounted to $ 1,693,623,000 , down 46.7% .

Development of rare earth supply diversification and alternative technologies may make China Rare Earth face more cold winter.

In recent years, rare earth development within countries the United States, Canada , Australia and South Africa continue to accelerate , diversify rare earth supplies will undoubtedly impact of China 's rare earth industry . The United States has gradually restored reconstruction of rare earth industry chain. In addition to increased exploration and mining of rare earth minerals, other than to resume production of rare earth raw materials , but also to restore and expand the production capacity of some rare earth functional materials. According to the U.S. Congressional Research and Services Center (CRS) estimates that in 2010, the United States accounted for 3.3 % of the U.S. rare earth magnetic total amount of rare earths by 2015 this figure will reach 13%. March 2013 , Japan announced the mud found a large number of rare earth resources in the seabed surrounding the South Bird Island , and will be evaluated in 2015 began to discuss the feasibility of commercial development .

Rare Chinese rare earth supply diversification bring influence is not limited to raw materials . Japan, the United States and other countries have recently launched a new round of patent wars , paving the way for competition in the market under a wide range of rare earth supply , greatly limits the Chinese overseas markets rare earth functional materials.

At the same time , rare earth prices soared in 2011 to promote the development of rare earth direct alternative technologies and minimization techniques. Two years later , part of the technology has begun to mature , the market impact is gradually becoming apparent. Such as neodymium and dysprosium in the amount of more than halved and diminished performance , such as high-end alternative to the high cost of NdFeB ferrite and rare earth polishing materials for low-cost alternative products. In terms of light-emitting materials , technological progress has brought crucial changes . LED light-emitting materials, have significantly reduced the number of applicable than trichromatic fluorescent material. If one gram flour to produce 20 9W LED white LED lights , LED rare earth powder 40% to 50%, while 1 g three-color dye to produce only a 9 watt tricolor lights, europium and other expensive elements of the amount will be significantly reduced. LED light flux is generally 100lm / W or more, and three-color lights generally only 60lm / W or so. With LED lights increased production and lower prices in the future will be more to replace tricolor lights, especially in the heavy rare earth consumption will also reduce the amount of rare earths .

In the weak demand and lower supply of diverse backgrounds, in 2014 , China is expected to greatly benefit from the rare earths energy saving rapid development of related industries .

February 2013 , the National Development and Reform Commission published the " Guiding Catalogue of products and services focused on strategic emerging industries" , which involves a lot of , including new energy, new materials, new energy vehicles , energy saving and other emerging industries using rare earth materials.

Among them, the new energy vehicles will become an important force to promote rare earth permanent magnets . June 2012 introduced the " " five- saving environmental protection industry development plan " ," proposed to demonstrate the promotion of rare earth permanent magnet coreless motors and other energy-efficient motor technology and equipment universities ; required to accelerate the development and demonstration of new vehicles and new power battery hybrid cars electromechanical coupling dynamic system, vehicle dynamic systems and power generation equipment and other technical equipment used . At the same time issued the " energy-saving and new energy automotive industry development plan" further believes that energy-saving and new energy vehicles have become the development direction of the international automotive industry over the next 10 years will usher in the global automotive industry transformation and upgrading of important strategic opportunities . "Atmospheric Pollution Prevention Action Plan " issued in September 2013 is clearly more to speed up the elimination of old vehicles, the promotion of new energy vehicles .

According to the plan , by 2015, China will be the cumulative production of new energy vehicles, 500,000 , in 2020 more than 5 million . About the relative contrast , in 2013 China produced only 10,000 new energy vehicles . This means that the new energy automobile demand for rare earth permanent magnet materials in 2014 could add 20 to 30 times over the next seven years, the average annual demand will reach 5,000 tons.
