Outlook:
The prices of lithium salts dipped slightly, followed by spodumene and lepidolite.
On the supply side, a number of traders in the retail market lowered their offers.
On the demand side, the operating rates of downstream LFP and ternary cathode material manufacturers continued to grow. But the demand showed no improvement given the amount of raw material stocks built in the early stage, so the manufactures only purchased to meet their rigid demand. The spot trading in the overall market was lackluster.
It is expected that the prices of lithium salt will keep rangebound in the short term.
