In recent years, the price of raw material propylene is high, the cost is strongly supported, and the factory’s low price shipping intention is not strong, but the downstream buyer is insufficient, the prudence of purchasing epichlorohydrin increases, and there is a lack of buying support in the market, so the shippers are under pressure to deliver, and the focus of market negotiation is weak. The epichlorohydrin commodity index on December 3 was 91.34, which was the same as yesterday, decreased by 31.69% from 133.71 (October 29, 2019), and increased by 94.96% from 46.85, the lowest point on September 07, 2016.

At present, the transaction volume in the market is still between 7550 yuan / ton and 7900 yuan / ton, and the mainstream price is between 7650 yuan / ton and 7700 yuan / ton. Now the factory stock is small, the shipment situation is good.

 

The downstream epoxy resin market was weak on December 3. Bisphenol A, the main raw material, rose. The pressure of high cost of epoxy resin did not decrease. The manufacturers mainly made firm offers. However, the downstream companies were resistant to the high price raw materials. Most of them just needed to follow up, and the atmosphere was not enough.

3、 Future forecast

 

According to the analysts of epichlorohydrin of the business agency, the price of propylene is high in recent years, but the downstream purchasing enthusiasm is general, the cost and demand fundamentals play a game, and the market atmosphere is stagnant. Moreover, several downstream liquid epoxy resin factories have maintenance plans, and the demand side support is gradually insufficient. It is expected that in the short term, the epichlorohydrin market may be weak, and more attention should be paid to the market news Guidelines.

As of November 25, the settlement price of WTI main contract of international crude oil was 45.71 USD / barrel, up 26.38% compared with the beginning of the month, while the settlement price of Brent main contract was 48.61 USD / barrel, up 26.84% compared with the beginning of the month. It has reached the highest level since March. On the one hand, the successive positive news of the new crown vaccine has boosted the demand expectation; on the other hand, according to the news released from the market, OPEC + is expected to further maintain the current super scale production reduction, which is beneficial to the supply expectation. PTA market began to stop falling and rebound on November 10 under the support of crude oil. As of November 29, the average market price was 3343 yuan / ton, up 7.21%.

 

In addition, after the hot market in October, the downstream textile enterprises received a lot of orders, the inventory was consumed, the shortage of funds was alleviated to some extent, and at the same time, it had the ability to purchase in large quantities. The end of each month is the time for many enterprises to purchase raw materials, and soon to December, some textile enterprises prepare for the end of the year to store raw materials. In the case of continuous decline in raw materials for a month, look for regular bargain hunting. On November 25, the production and sales of mainstream factories in Jiangsu and Zhejiang were between 150% and 230%, and that of some factories was about 500%.

 

Xia Ting, an analyst at the business agency, believes that the final thing for weaving enterprises to purchase raw materials is terminal demand. In November, the traditional textile off-season saw a significant decrease in the number of orders, and the start-up rate also dropped from 93% at the beginning of the month to about 85%. Some textile enterprises received orders in October have not yet received the payment time, so the capital pressure has not been fundamentally solved, so cautious procurement is the main. And raw material market, crude oil continued to rise, lack of power, PTA supply surplus pressure remains. Therefore, the price of polyester filament will continue to weaken in December.
