Market outlook forecast:

On the supply side, equipment will continue to be restored this week, and Nissan will continue to maintain high levels. If supply continues to be sufficient, prices may move downward. In terms of manufacturers, the company has a large amount of orders in the early stage, and currently has sufficient orders, which can last for about a week. As the orders to be issued are gradually reduced, prices are expected to be consolidated downward. In terms of inventory, the company's current inventory is low and there is a small intention to accumulate stocks in a short period of time. Currently, it continues to control orders. On the demand side, we are currently in the winter storage stage, and market demand is following up. However, as prices continue to rise, downstream resistance to high transaction prices is gradually emerging. Currently, the transaction of new orders in the market is slowing down, and the market has a strong wait-and-see atmosphere.

On the whole, the urea market is currently in a stalemate, with companies accumulating orders and downstream resistance to high prices. In addition, the current export news is not clear and the market lacks substantial positive factors to support it. It is expected that the price increase in the urea market will slow down.
