Analysis review

Supply side:

Recent price trend of hydrochloric acid: According to the commodity analysis system of SunSirs, the overall price of hydrochloric acid in China (4.1-5.11) had increased, mainly due to some manufacturers raising factory prices. Especially for Shandong Dongming Petrochemical, the price increase on that day reached 50 RMB/ton. As of May 11th, the downstream market for hydrochloric acid was weak, making it difficult to support high prices. The raw material hydrochloric acid market may experience an increase that is difficult to sustain, and it will shift to mainly fluctuating in the later stage.

On the demand side:

There had also been no significant increase or decrease in demand, so market prices had not been greatly impacted. In addition, market participants may also be watching and waiting for new market signals or changes. In this situation, the price of calcium chloride may continue to maintain its stable trend or experience slight fluctuations.

Market outlook

On the supply side, although the overall operating rate remained high, inventory was gradually accumulating due to poor shipping performance; At the same time, the weak demand in the downstream market had led to a slow pace of shipments and significant sales pressure; It is expected that prices will stabilize slightly in the near future. Overall, the price of calcium chloride is weak and stagnant, and market sentiment is calm. However, there is still uncertainty about the future price trend.
