SMM Fluoride Salt Weekly: March Prices May Rebound Slightly Amid Cost Support, But Weakness Persists

[SMM Fluoride Salt Weekly Review: Sluggish Transactions, March Prices May Rebound Slightly with Cost Support but Weakness Likely to Persist]

Overall, the price of aluminum fluoride in March is expected to rebound slightly due to the rising costs of raw materials such as fluorite powder and sulphuric acid. However, from a long-term trend perspective, the significant decline in aluminum hydroxide costs in the earlier period and the lack of growth in downstream demand make it difficult to fundamentally change the short-term downward trend of aluminum fluoride. Nevertheless, as the support from raw material costs gradually strengthens and production and market sentiment improve, the downside room in the market may gradually narrow. This indicates that, despite facing price pressure in the short term, signs of recovery may emerge in the future, and market dynamics are likely to stabilize.
