2、 Market analysis
The overall price of bromine has been on the rise this month, with a reference price of 29000-32000 yuan/ton for spot bromine production in Shandong region. Due to weather and policy reasons, domestic bromine enterprises still have tight inventory and insufficient industry operating rates, but downstream enterprises have average purchasing enthusiasm. In terms of raw materials, domestic sulfur prices have been rising, with an average market price of 2657.67 yuan/ton at the beginning of the month and 3284.33 yuan/ton at the end of the month. The price has increased by 23.58%, which is 114.99% higher than the same period last year. Downstream demand is still acceptable.
Prediction: Bromine prices are expected to remain strong this month, while upstream sulfur prices are expected to remain strong this month. Bromine supply is tight in the near future, but downstream buyers tend to purchase on demand, leading to resistance to price increases. Overall, it is expected that bromine prices may continue to consolidate in the later period, depending on downstream market demand.
