K-LinePoet · 2026-04-07T15:32:51+00:00

With the recent price rebound, market sentiment has improved, and downstream buyers are mostly purchasing on demand. The actual inventory buildup sentiment is moderate, and traders face increased pressure to sell. On the other hand, as supply tightness gradually eases in the later stages, and domestic consumption growth remains limited, there may be new changes in price trends and inventory levels. Prices are adjusting downward in line with the market, with small brands offering a premium of approximately 500-1300 yuan/ton for April. The Yunzhitou (Yun Character Head) offers a premium of around 1300-1900 yuan/ton for April, and Yunnan Tin (Yunnan Xi) offers a premium of about 1900-2500 yuan/ton for April. (SHMET)

As prices have rebounded recently, market wait-and-see sentiment has increased somewhat. Downstream buyers largely purchase on demand, and actual stockpiling sentiment is generally average, while the selling pressure on traders has increased. On the other hand, as the level of supply tightness in the later period gradually eases, while incremental growth in domestic consumption is limited, the price trend and inventories may show new changes. In response to tracking the downward move, smaller brands for April lowered to a premium of about 500-1,300 yuan per ton; the “Yun” prefix brands for April are around a 1,300-1,900 yuan per ton premium; and Yunnan Tin for April is around a 1,900-2,500 yuan per ton premium.
