The Vitamin D
Prices remained bullish during the first quarter of 2023, with CFR
prices in New Jersey ending up at $15800 per MT in January and $16200 per MT in
March, respectively. Industry players had predicted that the pharmaceutical and
nutraceuticals industries would continue to sail through mixed sentiments
during the first quarter of 2023 as a result of the market turbulence in the
previous quarter. However, consistent end-user demand and moderate inquiries
from downstream providers kept the market dynamics in check. The first half of
the quarter benefited from China's easing of its zero-covid ban since the
supply chain and trade remained healthy, which led to a decrease in freight
costs.
In the Asia Pacific region, China's
decision to abolish the severe COVID-19 limitations in the first week of
January gave the trillion-dollar economy in the Asia Pacific region—China—new
vitality after it had suffered significantly over the previous four years.
China thus saw a marginally favorable first quarter of 2023. The FOB Shanghai
pricing trend in the domestic Chinese market showed minimal change in the first
quarter of 2023, with prices stabilizing at $10485 per MT in January and $10740
per MT in March. The price of Vitamin D in the domestic market for
nutraceuticals and pharmaceuticals saw a roll-over sentiment for two
consecutive weeks in January after a week-long Lunar vacation. The second part
of the quarter's rise in market activity in China can be largely ascribed to
low inventories and high demand.
Europe
The pharmaceutical and
nutraceutical industries in Europe got off to a good start thanks to an
increase in orders and shipments from both domestic and international markets
during the first quarter. Prices for Vitamin D increased during the first
quarter of 2023, rising from $12150/MT in January to $12340/MT in March.
Participants in the local market saw successful arbitrage for the majority of
this quarter since the outlook for supply and demand seemed bright. While the European
market showed promising signs, the surprise reopening of China's COVID and the
protracted crisis between Russia and Ukraine reduced inflation pressures. An
improvement in end-user demand from both producers and suppliers allowed for a
quick rebound in activity, which was further supported by this.
