These two ratios show that the performance of military industry has weakened relative to manufacturing and new energy vehicles this week. (2) The price of carbon fiber this week was 186.8 yuan / kg, a month on month increase of + 4.6%, mainly due to the strong price of precursor, which supported the high price of carbon fiber. The gross profit is 55.85 yuan / kg, a month on month increase of + 22.1%. Both the price and gross profit are at a high level in the past 20 years. (3) The prices of titanium, rhenium and beryllium were the same as last week.
New energy vehicles and new materials: lithium carbonate commodity price and stock price continue to deviate. (1) This week, the CIF price of Li2O 5% lithium concentrate in China has reached US $2375 / ton, an increase of 0.9% month on month. (2) This week, the prices of electric carbon, industrial carbon and battery grade lithium hydroxide were 25.00, 23.35 and 19.91 million yuan / ton respectively, with a chain comparison of + 5.8%, + 8.25% and + 4.3%, which continued to deviate from the stock price. This week, the price of lc2204 in Changzhou Zoomlion battery grade lithium carbonate contract has risen to 301000 yuan / ton, 51000 yuan / ton higher than the current price of electric carbon.

The price of lithium cobalt oxide, a new material for consumer electronics, rose slightly. (1) On Thursday, the price of cobalt trioxide was 382500 yuan / ton, a month on month increase of + 0%. The price of lithium cobaltate this week was 424 yuan / kg, a month on month increase of + 0.95%. (2) The price of silicon carbide this week is 8400 yuan / ton, a month on month increase of + 0%; This week, the prices of high-purity gallium, crude indium and refined indium were 2525, 1575 and 1675 yuan / kg respectively, with a chain comparison of + 0%, + 0% and + 0% respectively; On Tuesday, the price of germanium oxide was 6600 yuan / kg, a month on month increase of + 0%.
Other materials: platinum and rhodium prices pick up. (1) This week, the prices of 99.95% platinum, rhodium and iridium were 213.0, 3358.5 and 953 yuan / g respectively, with a chain comparison of + 3.9%, + 0.7% and + 0%. The prices of platinum, rhodium and iridium are higher since 2015.
It is suggested to pay attention to the target: continue to be fully optimistic about the new metal material plate. The high price of lithium concentrate is still good for enterprises with high self-sufficiency rate of lithium resources. It is recommended to pay attention to Tianqi Lithium Corporation(002466) , Youngy Co.Ltd(002192) , Ganfeng Lithium Co.Ltd(002460) ; The construction of a world-class Salt Lake industrial base in Qinghai has been mentioned again. China's independently controllable salt lake resources are of great strategic significance. It is suggested to pay attention to Qinghai Salt Lake Industry Co.Ltd(000792) , Keda Industrial Group Co.Ltd(600499) , Sunresin New Materials Co.Ltd Xi'An(300487) .
