Summary of Tungsten Industry Conference Call Industry Overview - China holds the largest tungsten resources and production scale globally, accounting for over 80% of global production and 49% of consumption, significantly influencing the global tungsten market [2][4] - The tungsten industry has a complete supply chain from extraction to final products, with major applications in hard alloys (cutting tools, drill bits) and military materials [2][6] Key Points and Arguments - The current tungsten market faces a contradiction between tight upstream supply and insufficient downstream orders. Rapid price increases in raw materials have raised cost pressures for midstream alloy manufacturers, while downstream manufacturing orders have not seen significant growth, leading to potential losses in the midstream sector [2][7] - The easing of the US-China trade war has raised expectations for a recovery in downstream order demand, but upstream supply remains under national control, meaning that increased demand will not immediately reflect in upstream mining. The transmission effect will take at least a month, with longer processing cycles for tools and final products [2][9][10] - Major domestic tungsten producers include China Tungsten High-Tech and Xiamen Tungsten, while overseas companies like Sandvik and Kennametal focus more on product value addition and branding [2][11] Market Dynamics - Tungsten prices have risen approximately 20% since 2025, driven by export controls due to the US-China trade war, particularly on dual-use items, and a unified adjustment of tungsten mining quotas by domestic rare earth groups, leading to tight upstream supply [3][5][12] - The optimism in market expectations and insufficient inventory among domestic enterprises have contributed to the price increase, alongside speculative investments in the non-ferrous metals market [5][12] Challenges in the Tungsten Market - The market is currently challenged by tight upstream supply and a lack of downstream orders. Rising raw material prices are increasing cost pressures for midstream alloy manufacturers, while the reduction in orders has also led to a decline in secondary raw material production, affecting the prices of scrap and waste alloys [7][8] Emerging Applications - Although there is some demand for tungsten in the photovoltaic sector, its overall impact on supply and demand is limited. Research into using tungsten for battery materials is still in the experimental stage and has not yet significantly affected current supply and demand dynamics [8] Future Price Trends - The future price trajectory remains uncertain, with midstream sectors facing loss pressures. Current pricing is based on existing raw material prices plus processing fees. If future order volumes are substantial, there may be improvements, but no significant changes have been felt in the midstream sector yet [14] - Some industry experts believe that black tungsten concentrate prices may reach historical highs, with estimates suggesting prices could exceed 200,000 yuan per ton, although this view is not universally accepted [14]

Summary of Conference Call on Tungsten Market Industry Overview - The conference call focuses on the tungsten industry, specifically the dynamics of tungsten prices and the factors influencing demand and supply in China for 2024 and beyond [1][3][5]. Key Points and Arguments - **Tungsten Demand Growth**: In 2024, China's total tungsten demand is expected to grow by 2% year-on-year to 177,600 metric tons, with military demand accounting for over 10% [1][3]. - **Price Increase Drivers**: Recent increases in tungsten prices are attributed to a reduction in domestic mining quotas, potential supply disruptions due to environmental inspections, and heightened military demand due to geopolitical tensions [1][4]. - **Future Price Outlook**: Tungsten prices are anticipated to continue rising, driven by potential catalysts such as improved US-China relations leading to export recovery and slower-than-expected production at the Bakuta tungsten mine [1][5]. - **Impact on Company Profits**: The rise in tungsten prices is not expected to negatively impact the profits of listed companies. Faster price transmission within the industry and increased machine tool production are expected to enhance profit realization [1][7][8]. - **Investment Opportunities**: Companies with a higher proportion of profits derived from tungsten mining, such as Zhangyuan Tungsten and Changgao Electric, are showing strong resilience in the current price environment [1][9]. - **Investment Strategy**: Middle tungsten high-tech is prioritized as the top investment target, along with companies benefiting from rare earth themes and robotics component substitution [2][9]. Additional Important Insights - **Supply-Side Challenges**: Domestic tungsten production is declining, with a forecast of 72,100 metric tons in 2024, a decrease of 0.64% year-on-year. Import growth is also slowing, with average monthly imports around 500 tons in early 2025 [3][4]. - **Market Sentiment**: The overall sentiment in the tungsten market is positive, with expectations of demand recovery and price increases, despite potential short-term volatility [6][8]. - **Long-Term Investment Value**: The long-term investment value of the entire industry chain remains strong, with a focus on companies' sensitivity to market changes to capture growth opportunities [6][9].
