Platts reported that spot molybdenum oxide powder trade was thin in Asia today because market participants are looking for clearer market direction.

As quoted in the market news:

Platts moly oxide daily dealer price stood at $9.30-9.45/lb Tuesday, up from $9.10-9.20/lb on September 30, having risen steadily since offers below $9.30/lb in warehouse/CIF disappeared from global markets October 1.

Japanese and South Korean traders said they were hoping Chinese traders returning to the market this week would provide near-term price direction by either aligning their offers with recent spot deals in Europe above $9.40/lb in-warehouse, or offering at the level reflecting their market outlook.
