Forecast for caustic soda market outlook:
In terms of spot:At present, most areas in the caustic soda market are lacking, and the liquid caustic soda and flake caustic soda markets are operating in a weak situation. The reduction in the supply of equipment maintenance in some areas of the liquid soda market has provided certain support for local prices, but it is only limited to the fact that the quotations are relatively firm, and there has been no significant increase in prices after a small increase. In most other regions, the supply and demand sides have not changed much, and most regional markets lack obvious variable incentives, and it is expected that the liquid soda market may continue to operate in a regional and flexible manner in the short term. This week, the price of new orders from manufacturers in the northwest region has been sharply lowered, frustrating traders 'confidence in quotations and exacerbating the sentiment of industry players about bearish market outlook. The enthusiasm of industry players to enter the market has weakened. Currently, the actual transaction prices in some markets are slightly lower than the factory quotations. The positive factors of some manufacturers' low inventories and low transportation efficiency have gradually been ignored by the weak market. It is expected that the short-term market for the alkali market may continue to operate weakly.
