As for the reasons for the recent rise in lithium carbonate prices, open source securities said that the recent rise in lithium carbonate prices is affected by the limited supply of natural gas in the western region on the one hand, and the low temperature in winter on the other hand, the extraction of lithium from salt lakes is affected on the other hand. It is expected that the contradiction between supply and demand in 2022 will be concentrated in the first quarter, and the contradiction between supply and demand is expected to ease at the end of the first quarter of 2022. Lithium prices are expected to remain high throughout the year in 2022.
Chuang Chuang Securities also said frankly that considering the impact of winter salt lake maintenance and the epidemic in South Africa, it is expected that the short-term tight supply pattern of lithium and cobalt may be difficult to change.
SMM recent research shows that in January, the overhaul of some lithium salt enterprises led to a reduction in supply, the market is difficult to obtain. Recently, the mainstream head enterprises have few quotations, and a small number of small and medium-sized lithium salt factories and material factories have quoted a small amount of 36.5-370000 yuan / ton, as some enterprises still have a gap, procurement is still continuing. In terms of industrial carbon, there is no obvious volume in Qinghai for the time being, and some quasi-electric carbon may be signed, and the price is expected to remain high. "View details
