[Expressed by www.ferro-alloys.cn] It is reported that recently, the prices of raw materials such metal crude calcium and metal calcium silk have risen up, which resulted in rise in price of solid pure calcium cored wire, but the price of seamless metal calcium price has no change yet, seamless metal calcium wire (Ca98%min∮9mm) is still 10,000 to 11,000 yuan per ton and seamless metal calcium wire (Ca98%min∮10mm) is still 15,000 to 16,000 yuan per ton at last week. According to the analysis of insiders, the market price trend of cored wire will depend on the bidding price of major domestic steel enterprises for the first quarter of 2019 at the end of the year, and it is unlikely to rise.

At present, the mainstream transaction price of Ca28Si55∮13mm is 10,500 to 11,500 yuan per ton. Ca30Si58 is 11,800 to 12,300 yuan per ton. Solid pure calcium cored wire (Ca98%min∮9mm) is 10,500 to 11,000 yuan per ton. Ferro calcium cored wire (Ca30∮13mm) is 8,300 to 8,800 yuan per ton. Ferro calcium cored wire (Ca30∮30mm) is 10,000 to 10,500 yuan per ton. Carbon cored wire (C98%∮13mm) is 6,500 to 7,000 yuan per ton. Silicon magnesium cored wire (Si40Mg28Re2∮13mm) is 11,500 to 12,500 yuan per ton. Nodulizer cored wire is 11,700 to 12,000 yuan per ton. Calcium silicon alloy Ca30 (natural block) is 10,000 to 10,100 yuan per ton, Ca30 (particle size 0-3mm) is 11,800 to 12,200 yuan per ton and Ca28 (natural block) is 12,000 to 12,300 yuan per ton. Metal crude calcium is 15,100-15,300 yuan per ton. Cold rolled strip steel SPCC 0.35-0.45mm is 5,100 yuan per ton, SPCC 0.35*55 Q195 is 4,470 yuan per ton, SPCC0.35-0.39*55 is 4,500 yuan per ton and SPCC0.4-0.49*55 is 4,450 yuan per ton.

It is estimated that cored wire market will be still stable by the end of this year with no large price fluctuation on the whole.
