Rare earth market update on December 29, 2025
On Monday, the domestic rare earth market overall performed poorly. With low enthusiasm among traders for entering the market and no major news releases on the market front, mainstream product prices slightly declined and order growth was slow. Today, praseodymium-neodymium metal, terbium oxide, and dysprosium-iron alloy prices decreased by approximately RMB 5,000/ton, RMB 30,000/ton, and RMB 10,000/ton respectively. According to CTIA GROUP LTD, factors such as market uncertainty brought by the approaching New Year's Day, tight funding for downstream rare earth production enterprises, and weak expectations among industry players for the future market have jointly suppressed market demand; under this background, to recover funds, many suppliers chose a rational concession strategy.
On the news front, data from the National Bureau of Statistics show that from January to November 2025, national industrial enterprises above designated size achieved a total profit of RMB 6.62686 trillion, increased by 0.1% year-on-year. During the same period, the mining industry achieved a total profit of RMB 789.63 billion, decreased by 27.2% year-on-year; the manufacturing industry achieved a total profit of RMB 5.03179 trillion, increased by 5.0%; the electricity, heat, gas, and water production and supply industry achieved a total profit of RMB 805.44 billion, increased by 8.4%.
