At present, the operating load of enterprises is high, the inventory of enterprises is high, and the downstream enterprises are mainly wait-and-see. Enterprises generally ship goods, with heavy on-site wait-and-see mood, and the downstream receiving capacity is limited. The manufacturer gives priority to flexible quotation.

Business analysts believe that recently, the price of caustic soda is weak, and the wait-and-see attitude of downstream alumina is obvious. It is mainly purchased on demand, the overall demand is limited, and the market atmosphere is weak. It is comprehensively expected that the subsequent weak market operation of caustic soda is mainly based on the downstream market demand.
