Analysis review
With the arrival of the "Golden September and Silver October" on the demand side, downstream expectations may improve
Supply pressure in foreign trade has eased somewhat, while export orders have shrunk month-on-month. In the domestic market, with the "Golden September and Silver October" approaching, production in downstream sectors like pharmaceuticals was gradually recovering, potentially increasing demand for formic acid. However, formic acid prices were temporarily at a yearly high, leading to cautious purchasing behavior among end-users.
Major manufacturers have maintenance plans, and inventory pressure may ease

Future outlook:
Analysts of formic acid data at SunSirs believe that with multiple positive factors, the price of formic acid is expected to rise.
