[SMM Analysis: Magnesium Prices Followed an Inverted V-shaped Trend in May - What's Next?] In May, magnesium ingot prices followed an inverted V-shaped trend. At the beginning of the month, influenced by news of dolomite production halts, magnesium prices surged, rising from 16,600 yuan/mt to 17,200 yuan/mt, a jump of 800 yuan/mt in two days, representing a 2.38% increase. In the middle to late May, as magnesium prices continued to climb, buyers gradually returned to rationality. Coupled with small magnesium plants successively selling at lower prices, the center of magnesium prices gradually shifted downward. As of the time of publication, the mainstream transaction prices of 99.90% magnesium ingot in the main producing areas were in the range of 16,700-16,800 yuan/mt.
