The cost is strongly supported, and the upstream dual raw material phenol/acetone continues to rise. The domestic phenol market has recovered rapidly. By the end of the weekend, the phenol market in East China had risen to 10600 yuan/ton through negotiation. In East China, it had risen by about 600 yuan/ton in the week. Other mainstream phenol trading regions also followed suit. According to the monitoring of the business community, the national phenol market offered 10112 yuan/ton on September 13, and 10700 yuan/ton on September 16, up 5.81% in the week. The phenol market supply is still tight next week, and the port inventory will be supplemented when arriving in Hong Kong on the way next week. However, with the approaching of the National Day holiday, it is necessary to pay attention to the pre holiday stock situation. Bisphenol A continues to rise, and the supply of raw materials is tight or ahead of schedule, while other terminals have limited acceptance of high priced phenol, so it is difficult to avoid resistance. The business community expects that the phenol market in East China will be strong at a high level. Although the increase of raw material acetone was less than that of phenol, the factory raised the listing price slightly, and the market as a whole showed an upward trend. On September 10, the average offer of acetone nationwide was 5312 yuan/ton. On September 16, the average offer of acetone nationwide rose to 5512 yuan/ton, with an increase of 3.62% in the week. It is expected that short-term acetone will continue to operate steadily.

 

The downstream epoxy resin and PC end fluctuated upward. Although the arrangement was affected by the support of the cost, the activity of the industry chain negotiation increased from top to bottom, and the market negotiation price showed an upward trend. As shown in the figure above, the upstream and downstream products have all risen to varying degrees. The market holders have a positive attitude, and the products with tight supply are reluctant to sell. The overall performance of the industry chain after the festival is good, and the market confidence is sufficient.

 

From the perspective of the business agency, the domestic bisphenol A market is still in a tense state in the near future. There is no production and marketing pressure on the factory side. The offer is firm. Some factories mainly supply contract users, with no shipping pressure. Moreover, the rising trend of dual raw materials is strong. The downstream terminal just needs strong support. The business agency expects to continue to pay attention to the trading situation on the market next week, and is expected to continue to explore the rise.

Futures market situation this week

 

Variety., closing price., compared with the same period of last week., inventory (ton)., compared with last week’s inventory change (ton)

Shanghai tin, 184960 yuan/ton,+7580 yuan/ton, 2149.,+357

London tin., 21345 US dollars / ton, + 225 US dollars / ton, 4715 US dollars, + 55

In terms of futures market, the overall strength of Lunxi this week, the price remained high and volatile, rising about 2.6% weekly. The trend of Shanghai Tin is similar to that of Lunxi this week, with high price volatility as the main trend, rising about 4% this week. In terms of inventory, the inventory rose significantly this week.

 

The main range of the spot market this week is 181000-187000 yuan / ton. The price fluctuates at a high level. The trend basically follows the fluctuation of Shanghai tin. After the price surged in the first three trading days, the price fell at the weekend. As the Mid Autumn Festival holiday approaches, the futures market is cautious, and most of the funds have left the market. Fundamentally speaking, the manufacturer’s quotation is generally stable this week, the premium of major manufacturers’ quotation is declining, and the commencement is generally stable. The domestic tin output increased significantly in August, the recent profits of import sources were obvious, the import sources increased significantly, the market quotation of import goods increased, and the domestic tin ingot supply was relatively loose as a whole. There is no obvious change in downstream demand in the near future, consumption is slightly weak, the willingness to stock up before the holiday is generally low, the downstream still maintains on-demand procurement, and the market has a strong wait-and-see mentality. From a comprehensive perspective, the tin market is still weak in both supply and demand, and the downstream demand is weak. It is hard to support the tin price. It is expected that the rising momentum of tin price is insufficient, and it is expected that the tin price is likely to bear more pressure in the future market.

On September 6, the copper price rebounded slightly

As shown in the figure above, the copper price rebounded slightly on the 6th, with the spot price of 61766.67 yuan / ton, up 1.46% from the previous day, down 11.67% from the beginning of the year, and down 11.5% year-on-year.

 

Recently, copper prices have rebounded slightly. Oil prices continued to strengthen, with London copper rising 1.62% overnight. The people’s Bank of China announced the RRR reduction and continued to provide policy support, while the decline of copper stocks and the soaring energy prices limited supply. In August, the domestic high-temperature weather caused power shortage, impacted the copper smelting industry, and caused a reduction in production. The new production capacity in Hubei was not ignited, and the output of Anhui refinery was damaged. The overall electrolytic copper output in August may not be as expected. However, after the high temperature eased, the supply recovered, but the global copper dominant inventory continued to stay at a low level, and the downstream consumption was on demand. The short-term copper price is subject to the suppression of macro sentiment and the influence of supply disturbance factors. It is expected that the copper price will fluctuate around 60000 yuan.
