According to Zhongtung Online's report on April 7, tungsten prices are in a weak and stable range, with market liquidity being relatively slow, and participants are observing the performance of the new round of price forecasts from industry organizations in Jiangxi and the long-term procurement prices of listed tungsten companies.
From the supply side, upstream mines and traders still maintain a certain willingness to take profits, but the shipping rhythm is relatively rational, keeping the market bottom firm. From the demand side, the purchasing sentiment of downstream end users is generally sluggish, and the market's &#34;no buying on the dip&#34; atmosphere is being released, with no significant replenishment signs outside of just-in-time needs.
On the macro front, based on recent policy signals released at the &#34;State Administration of Taxation's regular press conference,&#34; the rectification of the &#34;invoice economy&#34; has entered a deep execution stage from macro guidance to specific industries and key areas. The core is to curb the &#34;digital prosperity&#34; characterized by false invoicing and circular trading, and to reshape a real and compliant market trading system.
Combining the current operation of the tungsten industry, Zhongtung Online believes that the recent significant decline in tungsten scrap prices is superficially due to market sentiment fluctuations and the quality of tungsten scrap and temporary supply-demand imbalances, but the deeper reason is closely related to the insufficient compliance of some transactions in the circulation link. Some waste tungsten resources may face issues such as unbilled transfers, non-standard invoices, and unclear entities during the recycling and circulation process. Under the backdrop of tightening tax supervision, these resources will face higher compliance costs and circulation resistance when transmitted downstream, thus forming temporary pressure on prices. Analyzing the spirit of the meeting, Zhongtung Online notes that the tax authorities have clearly identified the recycling and utilization of renewable resources as key rectification targets, and future checks on high-risk enterprises and abnormal invoicing behaviors will continue to strengthen. This means that the waste tungsten market may face pressure in the short term, especially as non-compliant channel resources will accelerate clearance, increasing market volatility. However, from a medium to long-term perspective, this round of rectification will help purify the market environment and promote the standardization and transparency of the waste tungsten recycling system. Enterprises with legal qualifications, complete invoices, and compliant operations will gain more stable development space, and the industry's concentration and pricing mechanism are also expected to gradually optimize. For industry participants, strengthening compliance awareness and improving the invoice system will become the basic premise for future market competition.

Tungsten prices are in a weak and stable range, with market liquidity slow and participants awaiting a new round of price forecasts. On the supply side, upstream mines and traders maintain a willingness to profit, with a rational shipping pace. On the demand side, end-user purchasing sentiment is low, lacking signs of inventory replenishment. On the policy front, tax authorities are strengthening the regulation of recycled resources and utilization, which may lead to short-term pressure on the waste tungsten market but will help in the standardized development of the market. The prices of 65% black tungsten concentrate and white tungsten concentrate have both fallen by 8.6%
