At present, the market is intertwined and the oil market is anxious.

During the Spring Festival, the crude oil price increased significantly, and the pure benzene market rose significantly. Sinopec raised the ex factory price of pure benzene by 400 yuan / ton, which boosted the hydrogenated benzene market. Subsequently, crude oil prices weakened, styrene prices fell, and the pure benzene market fell slightly. On Friday, Sinopec lowered the ex factory price of pure benzene to 7950 yuan / ton, and the domestic market price of pure benzene was 7900-8000 yuan / ton. Affected by this, the hydrobenzene market was mainly weak and volatile at the weekend.

In terms of future market fundamentals, downstream demand still exists, and the high crude oil price still supports the market. It is expected that the support of the industrial chain will be acceptable in the short term, and the price of pure benzene will fluctuate slightly.
