Market Forecast

SunSirs PVC analysts believe that current decline in PVC futures, the supply of imported goods to supplement the market, the accumulation of social stocks, as well as the demand did not meet the expectations of many negative constraints, PVC peak season rise hindered. However, the cost side support is fair. As the enterprises enter the autumn overhaul and the PVC export gradually improves, the PVC market is not easy to fall deeply, and it is still dominated by fluctuation and upward trend. China PVC future market still needs to pay attention to the demand follow-up and futures trend.
