Delayed publication of domestic Chinese ferro-chrome prices on April 25: pricing notice

The publication of Fastmarkets’ Chinese domestic ferro-chrome prices was delayed on Tuesday April 25 due to a technical issue.

The publication of the affected prices was delayed for approximately one hour and 34 minutes today. Fastmarkets’ pricing database, MInD, has since been updated.

The following prices were published late:

MB-FEC-0006 Ferro-chrome spot 6-8% C, basis 50% Cr, ddp China, yuan/tonne
MB-FEC-0005 Ferro-chrome contract 6-8% C, basis 50% Cr, ddp China, yuan/tonne

We are aware that other prices have also been subject to technical issues that caused delays to their publication. We continue to investigate these and will publish further notices as appropriate.
