Last week, the performance of the domestic DME market was average. During the week, the price of raw material methanol increased, and the cost support strengthened. However, due to weak demand, DME did not follow the rise. In the later part of the week, the price of related LPG decreased, while the price of raw materials fluctuated. The positive support gradually weakened, and the DME market maintained stable operation.
According to the commodity market analysis system of SunSirs, as methanol prices fluctuated upwards in March, support for DME gradually increased. However, due to weak demand, the profit margin of DME market tightened.
Overall, the market supply is stable, inventory pressure is not high, cost support is strengthened, and downstream demand is maintained. It is difficult to see any improvement in the near future, and it is expected that the DME market will remain stagnant and operate in consolidation.
