Analysis review

The price has increased by 5.34%, which was 78.74% higher than the same period last year. Downstream demand was still acceptable.

Market outlook

Bromine prices have been temporarily stable in the recent times, while upstream sulfur prices were rising. Bromine production continued after the holiday, but downstream demand was still mainly based on on-demand procurement. The supply and demand gamed. It is expected that bromine will continue to consolidate in the later period, depending on downstream market demand.
