Domestic and foreign molybdenum markets expanded in 1988 and demand among market economy countries exceeded mine production. Domestic producer and consumer stocks decreased. U.S. mine output of molybdenum increased and represented 45% of the world production. Reported end-use consumption of molybdenum in raw materials and apparent domestic demand both increased. Exports of all forms of molybdenum from the United States increased. Domestic producer stocks of molybdenum products decreased to about 8 months of annual consumption. Topics discussed in the report include domestic data coverage, domestic production, consumption and uses, stocks, prices, foreign trade, world capacity, and world review.
