Caustic soda spot analysis: today China's caustic soda market continues to show a regional upward trend, the price center of gravity in some areas has moved up, there are regional differences in market transactions, some operators maintain a wait-and-see mentality, the price range of the liquid caustic soda market has moved up, and the tablet caustic soda market is stable. Today, the trading atmosphere in the liquid alkali market is OK, with prices rising mainly in some areas, and the prices of both low concentration alkali and high concentration alkali have both increased. From the point of view of price adjustment in various regions, 32% ionic membrane alkali rose 25-50 yuan / ton, 50% ionic membrane alkali rose 30-100 yuan / ton, and the prices of other concentrations of alkali almost remained stable, and the price range has not been significantly adjusted. In the main producing area, Shandong, there is a maintenance plan for the local equipment in the later stage, which is good for the local price, and the inventory pressure of the enterprise has decreased, supporting the price rise mainly. The surrounding local market is affected by this, the price also shows an upward trend. There is a maintenance plan for the high concentration alkali plant, and the price is also raised. In most other areas, the supply and demand sides of the market do not change much, maintain the previous level of operation, the enterprise shipping situation does not change much, the downstream receiving enthusiasm is general, the mentality of operators in each region is relatively cautious, and the price level is mostly maintained in the early stage. Most of the upstream production enterprises wait and see to stabilize the price, and a few manufacturers raise the ex-factory quotation mainly. Today, the tablet alkali market as a whole shows a trend of large and stable small movements, most of the devices are stable, the supply does not change much, individual devices have reduced production, but the overall impact is small, the downstream demand maintains rigid demand, and the market transaction is relatively flexible. Near the weekend, the market has a strong wait-and-see mood.
Caustic soda index analysis: according to Tuduoduo data, on March 15, China's caustic soda index was 2835.47, up 27.72%, or 0.987%. China's caustic soda index rose.
Prediction of the later stage of caustic soda:  
Spot: the caustic soda plant is overhauled in the later period, and the supply side shows a regional shortage, which supports the price in some areas; the overall downstream demand does not change much at present, and there is regional resumption of production of downstream alumina. In the later stage, we still need to pay attention to the resumption of alumina production, and the demand of other industries downstream mainly maintains the previous level, and the role of demand side in boosting the market is not obvious for the time being, only supported by rigid demand. But at present, the purchasing mentality of downstream enterprises is relatively positive, and the mood in some areas has also been driven. It is expected that the short-term spot price of caustic soda will continue to show an upward trend.
