With the recovery of logistics transportation, enterprise shipments have improved, downstream procurement has actively improved, inventory has decreased, and market prices have increased.
SunSirs PVC analysts believe that the PVC spot market saw an upward trend last week. Upstream calcium carbide prices have increased, and cost support is still acceptable. Affected by the decline in external oil prices on the 21st, PVC futures prices turned from rising to falling last Friday, and the futures market returned to weakness. The performance of futures has suppressed confidence in the spot market, and it is expected that the PVC spot market will fluctuate and consolidate in the short term. Close attention will be paid to changes in the news.
