Calcium Acetate Prices: Price, Trend, Pricing, News, Analysis | ChemAnalyst


For the Quarter Ending September 2023

North America

In the third quarter of 2023, Calcium Acetate prices in North America, particularly in the United States, mirrored market trends in the APAC region. Analysis by market participants revealed a consistent downward trend in prices until August, driven by reduced inquiries leading to retailers stockpiling excess inventories. The decline in imports reported by the US Census Bureau was linked to higher expenses due to rising inflation during the importation of goods. Despite this, existing finished product inventories were sufficient to meet local market demands. Midway through Q3, the US market saw a noteworthy decline in Acetic Acid prices, a crucial raw material for Calcium Acetate production, contributing to the overall drop in Calcium Acetate prices. However, September showed an improvement in prices due to moderate increases in domestic and regional inquiries, along with rising energy costs affecting the manufacturing cost of Povidone.

Asia Pacific

Throughout the third quarter of 2023, Calcium Acetate prices in the Chinese market experienced a significant drop until mid-Q3, followed by a noticeable rise in September. The lackluster market was attributed to weak purchasing momentum and minimal transaction volume, aligning with the country's overall market trend. International buyers exercised caution, refraining from substantial orders from China due to ample supply and challenges in identifying profitable arbitrage opportunities caused by rising freight costs. Chinese economic data in August fell short of projections, with decreased exports, imports, and employment decline, contributing to the declining trend in the Calcium Acetate market. However, September witnessed a surge in global inquiries, and Acetic Acid prices rose due to limited availability in the domestic market amid consistent downstream demand. China's official PMI in September suggested a potential stabilization of the economy, although confidence among factory owners hit a 12-month low.

Europe

Throughout the entire third quarter of 2023, Calcium Acetate prices in Europe followed a trajectory similar to the USA, influenced by the downward movement in the Asian market and subdued demand in the regional market. Reduced demand contributed significantly to the price decrease, prompting local merchants to destock existing supplies by cutting costs. In July 2023, Germany's Consumer Price Index (CPI) experienced a marginal contraction, motivating market participants to reduce selling prices. A downward trend in the upstream market supported a pessimistic market outlook until mid-Q3. However, September saw a moderate increase in prices, similar to the United States, driven by a substantial rise in inquiries and a robust market trading atmosphere. The increase was balanced by overall available stocks among supplies and retailers, with traders restocking shelves at a higher US dollar rate due to the Euro's depreciation against the USD.
