Analysts at JPMorgan recommended selling or "underweight" emerging market local currency sovereign debt because of the global impact of the Ukraine-Russia crisis.
JPMorgan estimated that fixed-income assets in emerging markets have lost 6-9 percent of their value since Russia invaded Ukraine a month ago, with nervousness about the war and its impact on global energy and food prices adding to existing pressures.
Some leading emerging market central banks are signaling that interest rates now need to rise faster than previously expected, which fuels fears of "stagflation". Stagflation means when high inflation and higher interest rates undermine economic growth.
With both the U.S. Federal Reserve and emerging market central banks raising interest rates, JPMorgan also said it made sense to "underweight" emerging market assets by taking advantage of the recent pullback in local currency bond yields relative to TREASURIES.
JPMorgan said major metals exporters such as South Africa, Chile, and Peru could still do well, but warned that emerging market fixed income assets now faced a more "stagflationary" trajectory.
The markets and prices of many commodities, metals, chemicals like the Tungsten Carbide still face uncertainty.
What is Tungsten Carbide?
As one of the main production raw materials of cemented carbide, the physical
and chemical properties of tungsten carbide (WC) powder, such as particle shape,
particle size, particle size distribution, oxygen content, carbon content, bulk
density, etc., will directly affect the quality of alloy products. Nowadays,
with the gradual optimization of the production process of cemented carbide, the
market demand for spherical tungsten carbide powder is also increasing.
Tungsten carbide is mainly composed of refractory metal tungsten and
non-metallic carbon, and contains a small amount of impurity elements such as
Co, Cr, Ti, Ta, Nb, V, Mn, Ni, Mo, O, etc. According to the different particle
size, it can be divided into the following grades, WC10 (1.01~1.40um), WC30
(3.01~4.00um), WC50 (5.01~7.00um), WC100 (10.01~14.00um) and so on.
Properties of spherical tungsten carbide
Appearance is black powder, high purity ≥99.9%, sphericity ≥95%, melting
point is 2870℃, boiling point is 6000℃, density is 15.63g/cm³, bulk density is
greater than 7.0g/cm3, tap density is greater than 7.0. 5g/cm3, the flow
performance is less than 10.0s/50g, and has the characteristics of high
hardness, low thermal expansion coefficient, high compressive strength, large
elastic modulus, and smooth surface. However, due to its high hardness, its
processing performance is poor, so it is more suitable for 3D printing.
Production process of spherical tungsten carbide powder
Smelting method: The raw material powder (tungsten powder and carbon black or
tungsten powder, carbon black and tungsten carbide) is melted into a liquid
state, and droplets will form on the surface under the action of centrifugal
rotation method, rotary atomization method or gas atomization method Spherical
tungsten carbide.
Modified irregular tungsten carbide: The irregular WC is melted into a liquid
state, and then the spherical tungsten carbide powder is made by the plasma
spheroidization method or the resistance heat spheroidization method.
Uses of spherical tungsten carbide
Mainly used in the production of cemented carbide. According to different
chemical compositions, cemented carbides can be divided into tungsten-cobalt,
tungsten-titanium-cobalt and tungsten-titanium-tantalum (niobium) types.

U.S. oil prices surged about 10% to $105.14 a barrel. This is the highest level since 2014. The world benchmark Brent stock futures oil price soared by about 8% to $105.40 per barrel. The most direct rise in crude oil is inflation. The rise in oil prices means that people's food, clothing, housing, Tungsten Carbide also fluctuates.
