1、 Price trend
According to the monitoring of the commodity market analysis system of Shengyi Society, the PVC spot market continued its downward trend from last week this week (11.11-15). As of Friday, the average price of SG-5 PVC carbide method in China was 5206 yuan/ton, with a price drop of 0.19% during the week.
2、 Market analysis
Since November, PVC prices have continued to decline. This week, due to the lack of fundamental positive fundamentals, PVC prices continued to fall, and as of the weekend, prices have slightly stopped falling. On the one hand, due to the weakness of the crude oil market and the decline in futures prices, the spot PVC market has been linked to a downward trend, coupled with loose supply and demand performance. In the past two months, the operating rate of manufacturers has generally increased, with more than half of them operating at full capacity. Market shipment pressure has increased, and dealer offers have continued to decline. Downstream procurement is mainly based on spot prices, with low enthusiasm for inquiry based procurement and a sluggish market atmosphere. The hanging order price is relatively low. Overall, it is still mainly driven by basic needs, and the trading atmosphere is average. As of now, the quotation range for PVC SG5 electrical aggregate in China is mostly around 5100-5300 yuan/ton.
In terms of upstream calcium carbide, since November, the price of calcium carbide has stopped rising and mainly operated at a high level. According to data monitored by Business Society, the price increase of calcium carbide since November has been zero. Overall, the price increase in the calcium carbide market during the week was weak, with limited support, and with downstream PVC falling back into a slump, the price of calcium carbide may also experience fluctuations.
3、 Future forecast
The PVC analyst from Shengyi Society believes that in the short term, the pressure on PVC supply and demand will not decrease, and the operating rate of manufacturers will remain high. Both enterprise inventory and market inventory will be high. On the cost side, the upstream price of calcium carbide is unlikely to continue its upward trend, and the cost support is average. From the perspective of the futures market, the PVC futures market has shown weak performance in the later stage, which has affected the confidence of the spot market, and the spot market is generally bearish. It is expected that the PVC spot market will remain weak and volatile in the short term, and we will closely monitor changes in the news.
