Analysis review
At the beginning of the week, the inventory of phenol at Jiangyin Port was at a low level of 1,000 tons, and there was not much pressure on the spot supply in the market. Holders of goods expressed their intention to operate at a high price, and the industry watched and participated cautiously in inquiries. The downstream terminal market showed weak buying enthusiasm, mainly due to rigid demand, with low delivery rates. Traders' shipments were not smooth, and the market opened at a low price in the morning, with limited room for profit sharing.
Sinopec's price for phenol in East China ranged from 7,650-7,700 RMB/ton. Sinopec North China phenol was listed at a price range of 7,700-7,750 RMB/ton.
