Market Roundup |
This week, direct-spun PSF market gradually tended to stabilize. On Monday, PSF offer still maintained surging, to 19000yuan/mt in part but its sales were moderate. Subsequently, some PSF plants still raises offer further, with higher at 20500yuan/mt. However, downstream plants’ purchasing interest weakened and trading volume was small. Then, affected by cotton and PTA futures, as well as stock market softened Friday, polyester market became sluggish and PSF offer kept stable on the whole. Most PSF traders offered discounts for selling but rare deal was heard. |
Market Outlook |
Under weak polyester atmosphere but low inventory pressure, direct-spun PSF offer may maintain stable in the short run. Meanwhile, with favorable profits, PSF traders are possible to provide general discounts in trading. |
