Scrap prices naturally fluctuate due to global demand, commodity cycles, logistics constraints, and policy changes. Volatility itself is unavoidable.
What is avoidable is the damage caused by opaque markets, delayed information, and restricted access.
ScrapTrade, a global scrap trading marketplace operated by MOBEIUS TECHNOLOGIES PTY LTD (Australia), reduces the impact of price volatility by improving market visibility, efficiency, and trust.
Understanding Price Volatility in Scrap Trading
Price volatility arises from:
- Global commodity cycles
- Shifting manufacturing demand
- Supply disruptions
- Policy and regulatory changes
- Regional market imbalances
The problem is not fluctuation-it’s information lag.
Why Traditional Markets Amplify Volatility Impact
In informal scrap markets:
- Sellers react late to price changes
- Buyers exploit information asymmetry
- Local monopolies distort prices
- Lack of transparency increases panic selling
These factors magnify volatility damage.
