The mainstream transaction price for Chinese germanium metal 99.99%min stayed flat in September. Given the weak demand from Chinese end users, the market remained slow with little activity in the spot market and the price continued to demonstrate a downward trend. However, producers held firm on their quotations, showing little interest in lowering the price to promote sales. The price of long-term contracts also remained at a higher level. Producers reduced their output to relieve the pressure on stocks. The European germanium metal market failed to see the expected recovery in spot transactions, while purchasers were aggressive in making counter-offers.
