【MEK】
On March 6, the price of Dongming Petrochemical's methyl ethyl ketone product was set at 8,500 yuan per ton, representing an increase of 900 yuan per ton compared to the previous day.

【1,3-butadiene】
On March 6, the bidding and sales status of butadiene from some domestic enterprises: Dongming Petrochemical offered 336 tons for external sales with a base price of 12,500 yuan/ton; Wanhua Chemical (Yantai) offered 168 tons for external sales with a base price of 12,200 yuan/ton; Satellite Chemical raised its price by 500 yuan/ton, implementing 13,000 yuan/ton. The expectation of tightening supply in the domestic butadiene market continues to strengthen, with prices rising significantly and continuously. Sellers' reluctance to sell has further intensified, providing clear short-term support to the market from the supply side. However, downstream products have seen limited price increases, and most downstream enterprises are under profit pressure, leading to weak follow-through in spot market transactions. Supported by the supply side, it is expected that the domestic butadiene market will maintain high-level consolidation in the short term.

Expectations of tightening supply in the domestic butadiene market continue to strengthen, with prices rising significantly and consecutively.

National Grain and Materials Reserve Data Center, March 5: First, the ongoing Middle East conflict has kept international crude oil prices high, supporting both domestic and international edible oil prices.

The market is awaiting the release of MPOB's February supply and demand data. Third, India has repeatedly canceled soybean oil orders recently, shifting to palm oil purchases, which benefits export demand from producing regions.
