Why Did High Purity Germanium Price Start to Fall
Lead and zinc smelters have increased their willingness to sell associated metals in order to ease the financial pressure recently.
There were germanium-containing slag, germanium concentrate, and crude germanium dioxide for sale. And the tight supply of raw materials in the market had been significantly alleviated in the past two weeks.
However, due to the approaching of the end of this year, under the influence of the assessment pressure of the production enterprises on the inventory and the stable operation of the downstream market, the purchase intention and psychological price of the raw materials are mostly not high, and high purity germanium price has dropped sharply compared with the previous months.
From the perspective of market performance, affected by the decline in the frequency and quantity of procurement by downstream users, the cost of germanium ingots and germanium dioxide has also been slightly reduced, and it is expected that the price of germanium is still possible to be further reduced in the near future
But whether international prices fall, also depends on the difficulty of importing from China. The current difficulty has increased, so the global market may have a slight upward trend. We will continue to monitor the price changes closely in the next days.
