The market remains watch. The daily CIF price signal is flat, main-port inventory is down on the week, and the monthly mill-tender anchor is down. Inventory and tender signals continue to shape ferrochrome procurement sentiment and port-market price acceptance. The main tension is between available supply pressure and cautious downstream restocking.

The market remains soft. The chrome ore CIF price is flat, main-port inventory fell by 0.15 Mt week on week, and the monthly mill-tender anchor declined by RMB 200 per 50 base tonne. Inventory drawdown eased near-term port pressure, while lower tenders continue to constrain ferrochrome procurement sentiment.

From 2026-07-12 to 2026-07-18, the chromium market is assessed as watch.

Pressure is transmitting through ferrochrome margins, procurement timing and port-market transactions toward chrome ore. Next week's key variables are inventory drawdown, transaction confirmation and whether other mills follow the core tender direction.
