II. Analysis and comment

Raw materials: port stocks of pure benzene rose slightly this week, but the impact was not significant. The market of pure benzene is weak, and the weak situation continues in a week. At present, the listing price is 5250-5351 yuan / ton.

Product: at the beginning of this week, a 100000 ton aniline plant was shut down in Jinling, with a slight decrease in supply. However, the overall inventory of enterprises is on the high side, and enterprises continue to reduce prices to promote shipment.

III. future expectation

Raw materials: weak downstream demand for pure benzene will still restrict the recovery of the market. It is predicted that the short-term pure benzene market is difficult to return to temperature, and the weak operation is the main one.

The downstream demand is general, which is difficult to boost the aniline Market. It is expected that aniline will continue to operate weakly and stably next week.
