As of press time, the main lithium carbonate futures contract rose by over 5%, reaching 164380 yuan/ton. Huatai Futures believes that yesterday's limit up trend in lithium carbonate was mainly affected by expectations of supply disruptions on the lithium ore supply side, with the market delaying expectations of production resumption at the Yichun Lithium Mica Mine, affecting other local players. In addition, the enthusiasm of downstream companies to seize export opportunities due to adjustments in export tax rebate policies is still continuing. The combined efforts of supply and demand on the fundamentals have pushed prices higher.
