In November, the spot price of the domestic PE market rose and fell in various ways, among which LLDPE rose slightly in the first half of the month and operated in a narrow range in the second half; LDPE continuously lowered its quotation throughout the month, with a large decline; HDPE quotation is mainly firm. It is estimated by data that the domestic PE output decreased by 3.69% month on month in November, and the supply of goods in some regions was tight in the middle of the month, providing some support for the PE market. The "Double 11" e-commerce consumption festival has brought a short-term boost to the market, but after the e-commerce festival, the operating rate of packaging film has declined, and downstream orders are not good. At the end of the month, the enterprise was willing to go to the warehouse, mainly to make more profits for shipment.
In terms of current raw materials, on November 29, international crude oil futures closed higher, bringing some support to the cost side, but the support was limited. On the demand side, the peak season of agricultural film has gradually ended, the willingness of petrochemical enterprises to support prices has weakened, and the logistics has been blocked due to the impact of domestic public events. The future market is pessimistic. It is expected that China PE spot market will be weak in the short term.
