SHANGHAI, Sep 5 (SMM) – In the week ending August 31, lithium carbonate prices dropped. Some lithium salt producers cut production or undertook maintenance, slightly reducing supply. However, supply still outstripped demand, leading to a surplus and lower price. The energy storage and NEV sectors saw sluggish growth, resulting in little uptick in battery cell demand. As prices fell, cathode companies cautiously reduced their stock levels, further decreasing demand for lithium salts. Sporadic market deals occurred. With stable supply and falling demand, industry inventory rose, pushing down market quotes and transactions.
