Market outlook
Sulfur analysts of SunSirs believe that the downstream factories and traders in the sulfur market are not very enthusiastic about purchasing in the market, and there is a lack of substantive information guidance on internal and external markets. Buyers and sellers mainly wait and see. In addition, the port side has a clear attitude towards the market. It is expected that the sulfur market may consolidate in the later period. Wait and see the trend of the next market.
