Sulphate prices for all major metals in October decreased compared to September levels. This resulted in price correction for precursor and CAM materials. Prices are expected to remain at a similar level for the next 6 quarters. With the remaining strong underlying demand, we're expecting producers to scale up production to meet increasing requirements for (p)CAM materials. Record high EV sales in September will push producers to further increase producition.
