And market news in Myanmar said that large smelting enterprises in the southwest region were undergoing maintenance, and market expected that supply might shrink in the future, supporting an upward trend in tin prices. There was no substantial improvement in demand recently, mainly driven by news factors such as the rise of the semiconductor industry and the release of purchasing intentions from some solder companies, which had strengthened market expectations for the future of semiconductors.
Market outlook
Overall, the pattern of weak downstream actual demand continued.
