Analysis of Latest Tungsten Market from Chinatungsten Online
In recent days, tungsten prices have been rising rapidly by RMB 5,000-10,000/ton per day. Previously, China Tungsten Online analyzed that this surge in tungsten prices is primarily due to the convergence of multiple factors—supply contraction, growing demand, policy support, and market sentiment—and that there is fundamental support behind this surge. However, with speculative sentiment continuing to build and the market showing signs of "overheating," China Tungsten Online urges all industry players to exercise caution and avoid blindly following trends. From the perspective of industry development patterns, any market requires a rational and smooth value transmission system, and ultimately, demand determines price. Given that the current production capacity of China's tungsten product industry chain exceeds market demand, and there is no significant expansion in market demand in the short term, prices will eventually return to the fundamentals of supply and demand. The long-term, stable development of the market still depends on industry chain collaboration, technological innovation, and quality improvement, driven by final demand.
