Possible scenario
Benchmark Gains Traction
45% Chance
The most likely outcome is that CME's tungsten futures become a niche but credible benchmark for Western buyers trying to hedge Chinese export restrictions and defense-sector demand. Liquidity builds gradually as miners, trading houses, carbide users, and defense suppliers use the contract for price discovery rather than pure speculation.
