Report summary
Global stainless markets look increasingly bearish for H2 2022, the ongoing decline in Chinese production forcing another downgrade to our forecast. This is contributing toward a large surplus in NPI. The battery segment is doing better but cannot yet process all the nickel intermediates becoming available into nickel sulphate. Meanwhile, nickel prices have fallen back from the highs of Q2 but they are still supported by the tight supply of Class I nickel.
