International crude oil prices have risen, enhancing support on the cost side. After the weather warms up in March, demand in terminal plastic packaging and infrastructure industries is gradually improving, and downstream purchasing willingness is increasing. However, recent adjustments in overseas tariffs may have some impact on the export of downstream products. Maintenance has been relatively concentrated recently, and supply pressure is manageable. It is expected that the market will rise slightly today, with mainstream prices for wire drawing in East China ranging from 7,280 to 7,450 yuan/ton.

Driven by recent positive macro policy expectations and favorable conditions in the upstream ferrous sector, PVC prices experienced an intraday increase. From a fundamental supply and demand perspective, the market is currently in a stalemate. However, looking ahead, with the concentrated maintenance season approaching, market participants anticipate a slowdown in supply, while demand is expected to remain stable. Short-term cost stabilization is observed, and market expectations are still largely influenced by futures prices. However, the fundamentals do not provide sufficient support for a sustained increase in spot prices. Therefore, the domestic PVC market is expected to continue its slight upward trend today.

In the short term, the fundamentals of domestic EVA remain largely unchanged. Supported by strong demand from the photovoltaic sector, petrochemical companies are increasing production for photovoltaic orders. Supply for foaming grades remains tight, but weak downstream demand for foaming applications is limiting sales volume. Market participants remain cautious and are primarily looking to settle transactions. The domestic EVA market is expected to consolidate, with potential for stability. Mainstream market prices: Hard grades are expected to fluctuate between 11,200-11,700 yuan/ton, soft grades between 11,400-11,800 yuan/ton, and photovoltaic grades between 11,500-11,900 yuan/ton.
