cn] News on December 31, 2008: The domestic epichlorohydrin market continues to be consolidated and stabilized within a narrow range, on the trading day (December 30) ) The mainstream transaction price in the East China region in the mainstream market tends to the 6,000 yuan/ton platform in an all-round way.
According to the analysis of market experts from the China Epoxy Industry Association (www.
epoxy-e.
cn), the market was relatively stable on that day, and domestic manufacturers continued to "control"-control the start of construction and control the price, and the quotation maintained at 6000-6500 yuan/ton , The actual negotiation is mostly 6000 yuan/ton, but lower prices are still emerging, part of the delivery price is 5800 yuan/ton, the market stalemate is weak and the market is stable, the negotiation center is concentrated on the low end, the raw material propylene price fluctuates in a narrow range; recently, the propylene price is slightly negative Declined by 50-100 yuan/ton, but it has no real impact on the ring chlorine.
The weakening of demand towards the end of the year is still the main restricting factor of the current market.
However, because manufacturers control the quantity and the price has fluctuated at the cost line, there will be room for fluctuations in the short term.
Not big; as the last trading day in 2008, manufacturers have no adjustment plans for the time being, and the trend of maintaining stability within a narrow range continues.
At present, the market is actually in a downturn, the market continues to be weak, some negotiations are lower, the downstream industry factories are not starting high, the stocking intention is not strong during the Spring Festival, the overall negotiations are light, some manufacturers settle at the end of the month, and suspend invoicing.
.

On the previous trading day (December 30), the domestic epichlorohydrin continued to perform weakly and consolidate within a narrow range, the quotation range narrowed down, the transaction completed the low-end operation, the downstream small orders were purchased on demand, and the overall shipment speed was flat , The merchants are selling flat with the manufacturers, and the market mentality is relatively calm; the current operating characteristics are: the market is weak and the manufacturers are making up for the decline one after another, the quotation range is 6000~6500 yuan/ton, 6000~6200 yuan/ton, and some cash prices are available.
At the end of the year, downstream start-ups are reduced and demand shrinks.
There is a lack of good expectations for the market outlook.
Raw materials are generally picked up on demand and the source of goods digestion is slow.
Although manufacturers continue to control the start-up load, they are more negative than demand and are still relatively weak; "6000 RMB/ton" is still operational, can it become a short-term end point platform? It still needs time to verify.
The raw material market is relatively stable, and some manufacturers are about to close in the month.
There is limited room for further changes in the short term.
All parties are concerned about the prices of manufacturers and production and sales; the main factors affecting the market outlook are: facing further shrinking demand, relatively stable propylene prices, and overall flat market mentality , The macroeconomic downturn, etc.
, are mostly negative and the pressure is still high.
The two festivals are approaching and the January trading day is very limited.

The quotations are mainly 6000~6500 yuan/ton, mostly at the low end.
The transaction factories and cities are flat at the low end, mostly at 60%.
