Overview
Asia-Pacific countries of China, Vietnam and Australia continue to play dominant roles in titanium ore mining and processing and, though the market has experienced downward trend for most part of 2012, tight supply in Q1 and early part of Q2 played significant role in helping to keep price at high level.
By July, the Vietnamese government banned the export of titanium ore, which impacted the market of titanium dioxide in China, and many end-users suddenly began to find more suppliers from other parts of world. The questions that readily come to mind are: Will Vietnamese government continues to export titanium ore in 2013? Are suppliers from other countries able to step up production/mining of titanium ore in 2013?
The real estate industry in China became a little bit warmer from November 2012, which may push the market of titanium dioxide up in the future. Will the market of titanium ore move up according to the good signal?
In the same vein, titanium rutile market experienced volatility as price see-saw in the last12-18months. As the global economy is expected to continue to be on modest recovery path in the coming year, can titanium rutile market rebound? also jumped greatly from sharp rising to depreciating from 2011 to 2012, and how can titanium rutile market to go up in 2013 under the gloomy economics?
And with the modest recovery in the global economy, the aerospace industry remains strong and promising with more orders of civilian planes, thereby boosting titanium alloys market. How strong can this be given that the winding down of wars in Afghanistan will also impact upon military orders for combat and transport planes?
