Tungsten prices are at highs not seen for some time. This short update will help you to understand the fundamental reasons behind these high prices and give you an insight into the near to medium term outlook for the tungsten market.
The insights provided in this 10 minute video are taken from the new edition of Argus Tungsten Analytics service, presented by Mark Seddon, Principal Consultant.
The video update explores:
• Tungsten prices are at 6-year highs, principally affected by near-term supply issues in China
• Demand for tungsten is generally muted, especially in Europe, but the defence sector is driving demand given the current geo-political issues in eastern Europe and the Middle East
• The medium-term supply picture is likely to be boosted by new projects coming on-stream in 2H 2024 and 2025
