Analysis review

In July, the overall trend of the domestic lithium hydroxide market rose steadily, and the price center of gravity rose. As of July 31, the average price of domestic industrial-grade lithium hydroxide enterprises was 99,000 RMB/ton, an increase of 10.41% compared with the price on July 1 (89,666.67 RMB/ton). The main reason for the price increase during the month was that due to the overhaul of some manufacturers' installations, supply was reduced, downstream demand performed well, export orders increased month-on-month, market supply and demand were tightly balanced, and corporate quotations were raised. Entering August, the lithium hydroxide market continued its upward trend. Recently, the price of spodumene has risen and the cost is under pressure. Some smelters are still in the maintenance period. The tight spot supply continues, the demand side performs better, and the market sentiment is active, which drives the price center to move upward.
