Abstract

The article presents an update on the condition of the chlor-alkali sector. While the acquisition of Pioneer Cos. by Olin and its chlor-alkali business narrows the market, it does not necessarily reduce the chances of the market hitting a trough by 2010. The deal boosts Olin's position to the number-three chlor-alkali producer in North America. Near-term trends in chlorine and caustic soda shipments look positive in mid-2007, according to Bank of America analyst Kevin McCarthy.
