Price trend
According to the commodity market analysis system of SunSirs, the TDI market in East China halted its decline and rose last week. As of June 12, the average market price in East China stood at 15,133 RMB/ton, up from 14,800 RMB/ton on June 8; this represents a weekly increase of 2.25% and a year-on-year rise of 32.36%.
Market analysis
The TDI market halted its decline and rebounded last week. Major manufacturers suspended sales, signaling a stronger intent to support prices on the supply side. Low-end offers disappeared from the market, and traders slightly raised their quotes; however, downstream buyers remained cautious amidst the rising prices, resulting in lackluster demand and a market dominated by small-volume transactions.
Supply side: Wanhua’s Fujian plant continued to operate at low capacity, while BASF’s Shanghai plant was shut down for a three-week maintenance period.
Cost side: The toluene market fluctuated in line with crude oil prices, trending downward with volatility; trading activity was sluggish, and there was limited market news to drive direction.
Market Outlook
Analysts at SunSirs observe that the TDI market is currently characterized by strong supply and weak demand; prices are edging up cautiously amidst the influence of the international landscape. The market is expected to maintain a firm trend in the short term, though close attention should be paid to macroeconomic factors and shifts in supply and demand.
