Price Trend

According to the data of business associations, domestic xylene prices showed a downward trend in May. At the beginning of May, the price of xylene was stable, and began to oscillate in the first half of the month until the end of the month. At the beginning of the month, the average price of enterprises was the highest, 5670 yuan/ton; at the end of the month, the lowest price was 5430 yuan/ton, with a monthly decline of about 4.32%.

II. Analytical Review

1. Products: The xylene market is in a downturn this month. The overall purchasing intention is not high and the market mainstream transaction price is around 5480-5500 yuan/ton. The inventory of ports in East China is about 80,000 tons, which is about 316,000 tons compared with 111,600 tons at the beginning of the month. This month, Qingdao Dalian Refinery, Sinochem Hongrun Unit overhaul, reduced a certain amount of export sales, reduced market supply, traders benefit from this good offer. However, this positive support is less than the impact of raw materials and downstream, so xylene market overall downward in May.

2. Industry chain: In the upstream, the international oil price first stabilized and then fell in May. The OPEC production reduction and geographic situation were the main positive factors in the early and mid-term. The downward trend of the US stock market and the unexpected decline of the US crude oil inventory led to a sharp drop in the international oil price in the latter half of the year. On the downstream side, the domestic market price of p-xylene declined in May, with a monthly decline of about 2.61%. The new PX plant was not started and the enthusiasm of stockpiling was not high, which caused a certain blow to the market mentality. The market of o-xylene declined in May, and the contract price of o-xylene Sinopec was 6200.00 yuan/ton as of May 30. Benzene prices fell 500 yuan/ton, or 7.46%, from 6,700.00 yuan/ton in early May, and 6.59% from the same period last year.

3. Future Market Forecast

The Xylene Analyst of Business Cooperative Chemical Branch believes that: in a word, the stockholders are still optimistic about June because of the bullish support of crude oil and the driving of downstream PX devices. The market is mainly concerned about the driving of Sinochem Hongrun PX devices. However, at present, other major downstream purchasing intentions are general, the buying atmosphere is insufficient, stocks remain high, the market is in a stalemate stage, and the trend of Xylene is low. Fan, it is difficult to improve in the short term, or will fall first and then rise, but the range is small.

Acetic anhydride prices fluctuated and fell in May, according to data from business associations. As of May 30, the average price quoted by acetic anhydride enterprises was 4633.33 yuan/ton, which was 16.27% lower than that quoted by acetic anhydride enterprises at the beginning of the month, and 44.34% lower than that of the same period last year.

II. Market analysis:

Product analysis:

In May, the domestic acetic anhydride ex-factory quotation fell and the market transaction price fell. As of May 30, most of the region’s ex-factory quotations were between 4350 and 4600 yuan/ton. The actual transaction price fell. The actual transaction price in Shandong was about 4400 yuan/ton. The price fell. The market quotation was the reference price. The actual transaction price was based on actual negotiation. Acetic anhydride factory equipment start-up rate is higher, the downstream sales of acetic anhydride is cold, the market of acetic anhydride is general, the downstream pressure of acetic anhydride is larger.

Acetic anhydride raw material acetic acid price shock fell in May, methanol price shock rose. As of May 30, the price of acetic acid was 2576.67 yuan/ton, down 140 yuan/ton, or 5.15% compared with the price of acetic acid at the beginning of the month. The price of methanol rose sharply in May. As of May 30, the price of methanol was 2340.00 yuan/ton. In May, the price of methanol rose by 7.64%. The overall cost of acetic anhydride rose, which had a positive impact on the market of acetic anhydride. In the future, acetic anhydride had a certain upward momentum.

3. Future market forecast:

Bai Jiaxin, a data analyst for acetic anhydride in business associations, believes that the price of acetic anhydride raw material acetic acid fell in May, the price of methanol shocked up, the cost of acetic anhydride rose, and the price of acetic anhydride has a certain driving force. However, in recent years, acetic anhydride manufacturers have a high start-up rate, adequate supply and demand. Recent downstream purchases are general. The sales pressure of acetic anhydride is high, which has a great impact on the market of acetic anhydride. The rising cost of acetic anhydride promotes the price of acetic anhydride to a certain extent; the supply of acetic anhydride is sufficient, the downstream demand is general, the overall supply exceeds demand, and the market of acetic anhydride has little room to rise. Overall, with the price of acetic anhydride dropping sharply in May, the profit margin of acetic anhydride shrinks, and the market of acetic anhydride in the future may stop falling and rise again. However, without the support of downstream demand, acetic anhydride has little momentum to rise, and the overall market of acetic anhydride is mainly stable.
