Market outlook

In terms of market outlook, SunSirs believes that the current market price of pure benzene fluctuates frequently and port inventories are still high, but the crude oil market is currently performing well. The external price of pure benzene is still high, which has certain support for the market. Market participants are generally optimistic about the market outlook. The market outlook focuses on the price trend of pure benzene downstream products and the fluctuation of pure benzene external disk.
