Caustic soda index analysis: according to Tdd-global data, China's caustic soda index was 2427.51 on August 11, up 0%, and China's caustic soda index was stable.

 

 

Caustic soda late forecast:     approaching the weekend, the regional market performance is more cautious, the price is stable. The supply side of the liquid alkali market is still expected to narrow, but the downstream demand still maintains the rhythm of rigid demand procurement and low replenishment, the demand side still lacks substantial improvement, and the demand side fails to bring a significant positive boost to the market. therefore, although the market price of the liquid alkali market supported by the supply side is expected to rise, the rate of increase is limited by the demand side. The tablet alkali market is still supported by the shortage of goods, the overall enthusiasm of businessmen to enter the market is OK, some operators can reflect the situation of shipments, and the transaction prices in some areas are rising and higher than the ex-factory quotations, while the decline in liquid alkali prices in the main producing areas obviously does not limit the rising trend of tablet alkali from the actual situation of the market, and it is expected that the short-term tablet alkali market may still have room to rise.
