In June, the decline in the domestic DME market increased and deepened. In the first half of June, the DME market in Henan region experienced a significant decline. Due to the significant suppression of downstream demand, upstream inventory quickly accumulated, and upstream prices were significantly adjusted to stimulate sales. The surrounding markets have also fallen synchronously, while crude oil prices have slightly adjusted, and the prices of related liquefied gas products have fluctuated at the bottom, supporting weak news. Entering the second half of the month, the market for DME has seen a stable review. Under demand constraints, the positive news has limited boost, while the bearish trend has led to a clear and steady decline in the overall market,

The raw material methanol market first fell and then rose, strengthening support for DME. Especially in the second half of June, the market started to recover, but the overall supply on the market was loose, with limited changes in demand, which suppressed price increases. From June 1st to 28th, the average price of East China ports in the domestic methanol market dropped from 2,161 RMB/ton to 2,103 RMB/ton. The price fell by 2.68% during the cycle.
