At present, market trading has improved, the downstream just demanded purchases have increased, and the demand side has improved. Although the export shipments are poor, the supply and demand of the domestic market have improved recently in the face of the support of magnesium prices
Due to cost factors, due to the recent weather and raw material price factors, magnesium companies in mainstream production areas are willing to raise prices. In addition, the price of competing aluminum ingots has been rising since mid-March this year. The price of magnesium and aluminum has been upside down for a long time.
