[SMM Analysis: Cobalt Chloride Prices Slightly Declined This Week] This week, cobalt chloride prices slightly declined. Supply side, market sentiment gradually eased, and the reluctance of cobalt chloride producers to sell began to wane, with a significant increase in willingness to sell, leading to a decrease in quotations. Demand side, major buyers, Co3O4 manufacturers, concerned about potential losses from a drop in raw material prices after procurement, actively delayed purchases, showing a clear wait-and-see attitude. It is expected that next week, as panic sentiment gradually subsides, the market will become more rational. The lack of transactions may prompt some producers to continue lowering prices to improve liquidity, which could lead to a further decline in cobalt chloride prices.
