Market outlook
Due to the decline in raw material market prices, the cost pressure on titanium sponge production enterprises had slowed down. With the continuous release of production capacity, production had increased. In addition, there was insufficient demand in the downstream titanium material market, resulting in an imbalance between supply and demand. According to titanium sponge analysts from SunSirs, the titanium sponge market is expected to operate weakly and steadily in the near future. More attention should be paid to market news guidelines.
