Lithium hydroxide prices stayed stable for the week ending January 25. The lithium hydroxide market is stable in supply and demand. Some suppliers with low stock and higher smelting costs hold firm on prices, some quoting 88,000 yuan/mt or more. However, overall, downstream high-nickel cathode producers are finishing Spring Festival stockpiling and expect moderate post-holiday demand recovery, leading to low acceptance of high-priced lithium salts. Market transactions are mainly long-term contracts, with stable supply and demand, keeping prices steady for now.
