Weak demand follow-up and poor market of potassium sulfate

1、 Price trend

PVA

2、 Market analysis

According to the data of business agency, the domestic potassium sulfate market continued to be weak in early September, and the spot price was mostly reduced. As of September 3, the average price of 50 particle samples of domestic potassium sulfate was 4200 yuan / ton, a decrease of 2.33% compared with the average price at the beginning of the week and an increase of 57.01% year-on-year.

The long-term rising market in the early stage led to the high price of potassium sulfate. The rising trend of the potassium fertilizer market has weakened in recent two months and gradually turned into a weak market. At the end of last month, the mentality of operators was unstable, and the spot of potassium sulfate was under pressure. In terms of industry load, the market pressure is diverted by reducing the operating rate. The operating rate of processing potassium sulfate plant continues to decline and is currently stable at less than 50%. In terms of potassium chloride, the overall market is deadlocked and volatile. In the short-term market, under the influence of supply and demand and raw materials, the potassium chloride market is dominated by high-level consolidation. The upstream support is general, and the profitability of potassium sulfate enterprises is poor at present. In terms of terminal demand, it remained low, the market momentum was poor, businesses gave up profits and sold at a low price. At present, the ex factory reference price of 52% potassium sulfate powder of Shijiazhuang hehe Chemical Co., Ltd. is reported as 4300 yuan / ton. The ex factory reference price of 52% potassium sulfate powder of tripartite chemical group is 4100 yuan / ton.

3、 Future forecast

The potassium sulfate analyst of business agency believes that the domestic potassium fertilizer market continued to weaken in early September, and the market of raw potassium chloride is general. The cost support of domestic potassium sulfate is poor, and the low load of enterprises buffers the market pressure. There is a serious lack of follow-up by end users, most of them have a bearish mentality in the future, and the weak phenomenon of supply and demand in the industry is obvious. It is expected that the price of domestic potassium sulfate may continue to be adjusted weakly in the near future.

2、 Market analysis

The ammonium sulfate Market was stable in the first ten days of this month. The demand for coking grade ammonium sulfate weakens and the market price weakens. The demand for hexyl ammonium sulfate is acceptable, and it just needs to be purchased in the downstream. The price of ammonium sulfate began to fall in late this month. The coking grade market was poor, and the enterprise reduced the price slightly. The supply and demand of Hexian ammonium sulfate is balanced, and the downstream is purchased on demand, and the market is generally stable.

At the beginning of this month, the market of downstream compound fertilizer changed little. At the end of this month, the price of compound fertilizer fell steadily due to the weak raw material market and weak cost support. As the price of urea fell this month, the negative situation appeared, and the market of compound fertilizer was affected. At present, the downstream of the compound fertilizer market mostly takes a wait-and-see attitude.

3、 Future forecast

Ammonium sulfate analysts of business society believe that due to the current off-season sales of ammonium sulfate, the market demand is weak and the range is adjusted in a narrow range. The downstream mainly purchases on demand, with obvious wait-and-see attitude and reduced supply. It is expected that the price of ammonium sulfate in next month will be dominated by consolidation and operation, and it is recommended to pay attention to the change of terminal demand.
