The Chinese production factor should be considered

Hi Bruce,

You mean as in manufacturing production or moly production?

FWIW the report says:

"China continued its high level of steel production and consumption, thus providing a stable demand for molybdenum"

I'll say <g>

see the second page "Events Trends and Issues" as it goes on to say:

"With the continuing high price of nickel bearing stainless steel in 2004, consumers increasingly considered use of duplex stainless steel, with higher molybdenum content."

Bruce, you will be interested in the World Reserve Base numbers.
Presumably China could boost production somewhat and of course global consumption will be a reflection of Chinas own economy also. Personally I expect moly prices to back off to.........???? and when..........???

BWDIK
