2、 Market analysis

This week, the price of bromine is running steadily, and in the Shandong region, the price of bromine is running steadily. The mainstream market price is around 21500-22000 yuan/ton, and bromine manufacturers are gradually resuming production. But downstream demand is weak. In terms of raw materials, domestic sulfur prices have remained strong, with an average market price of 1661 yuan/ton at the beginning of the week and 1694.33 yuan/ton at the end of the week. The price has increased by 2.01%, which is 71.72% higher than the same period last year. Downstream demand is still acceptable.

Prediction: Bromine prices are expected to remain stable in the near future, while upstream sulfur prices are expected to rise. Bromine production will continue after the holiday, but downstream demand is still mainly based on on-demand procurement. The comprehensive supply-demand game predicts that bromine prices may continue to consolidate in the later period, depending on downstream market demand.
