Market outlook

At present, the trend of international crude oil prices is uncertain, and the benefits brought by the cost to the market are limited. The ex-factory prices of petrochemical enterprises are mostly falling, and the market mentality is general. In addition, the downstream demand is weak, and the procurement is still maintained on demand. The market is not good enough, and the quotations of merchants are mostly lowered. It is expected that the spot market of PE may still be weak in the short term.
