2、 Market situation

 

Demand overview

 

The demand market for cobalt lithium battery is mainly divided into mobile phone consumption and new energy vehicle demand. In terms of the demand for mobile phones, domestic mobile phone manufacturers have basically resumed operation, but the operation rate is not ideal. Affected by the epidemic, the import and export of countries around the world are limited. Most enterprises in the consumer market and power market have stopped production, which greatly reduces the demand for mobile phones and the demand for lithium batteries. In April, export orders of some battery factories will drop sharply, production of battery factories will be reduced, and their demand for cobalt materials will be relatively reduced.

 

In terms of new energy vehicle market, only some battery factories in China will export to foreign vehicle enterprises, while other power battery factories are mainly in domestic market. However, the consumption of new energy vehicles in the domestic market was freezing, and the demand for cobalt fell to a low level. The demand of cobalt market is decreasing, which is bad for cobalt market.
