Market Analysis - Monthly Report - November, 2020 - Azithromycin
1.Overview of the Current Market Situation
In November, the price of Azithromycin was stable, and the slight change was exchange rate fluctuations. In November, the expansion plans of various factories have been completed, and the goods are not as tight as in previous months. Due to the pressure of domestic medical insurance, most of the production capacity of major manufacturers is used to make up for the gap in domestic demand. The goods of Ningxia Qiyuan and Zhejiang nexchem circulate more in foreign markets. Hebei Guolong exports a large amount of azithromycin amine to the Indian market, so there is no stock. In terms of the market, foreign epidemics continue, so the demand for azithromycin has been stable. The upstream raw material is Erythromycin thiocyanate, which is in short supply and prices are rising. This product has already restricted the export volume, and India may be short of azithromycin. All in all, the supply and demand of azithromycin were relatively balanced in November, so the price has been high and stable.
