Analysis review

This week, PE saw a narrow adjustment, with LDPE prices falling in a narrow range and LLDPE and HDPE prices rising. On the cost side, the weakening of international crude oil prices this week had suppressed the PE market. On the supply side, HDPE prices increased due to insufficient supply. Next week, the maintenance device will restart, and it is expected PE supply will increase. Downstream demand, overall demand was lower than expected. In terms of packaging film, procurement was mainly on demand; the peak season for plastic mulch film was gradually coming to an end, and the demand for plastic greenhouse film was average, with insufficient order follow-up.

Market outlook

Next week, the maintenance device will resume operation, and there are expectations of an increase in PE supply; the demand in the agricultural film market has weakened, and packaging film is mainly purchased on demand. The market demand is less than expected. PE analysts from SunSirs predict that PE may mainly adjust.
