Ferro Chrome Market Scenario
Indian Ferro Chrome prices have plunged on weak Chinese demand. There is ample domestic Ferro Chrome supply in China and falling Stainless Steel prices forced the Indian producers to reduce their offers to generate trading possibilities. Chinese buyers are only amenable to prices lower than 89 cents/lb CIF China (equivalent to INR 76,500/MT).
Ferro chrome prices are also under pressure from falling chrome ore prices in China. Chrome ore prices in the Chinese spot market have fallen sharply by USD 45/MT W-o-W and South African 40-42% chrome ore was heard trading this week at USD 180/MT CIF China. Many attributed this sharp price fall to the weak Chinese Stainless Steel market and low demand for Ferro chrome further pressurizing Chrome Ore prices.
