4 Price prediction

The PBT market is expected to continue its stalemate. On the raw material side, PTA is experiencing a traditional peak season, yet the terminal performance is lukewarm, with downstream primarily engaging in just-in-time purchasing. However, the short-term supply and demand remain relatively tight, the balance sheet continues to de-stock, and with low processing fees, oil prices are fluctuating upward, providing strong support on the cost side. In the short term, there is an expectation of a continued rebound in the PTA spot market. Some BDO factories have announced shutdowns for maintenance, which will increase supply-side support, and suppliers continue to stabilize the market. Downstream purchasing is on an as-needed basis, while holders are maintaining a steady and cautious approach, resulting in a stable and calm market scenario. With stable cost support and downstream and terminal sectors following demand, most industry players are maintaining a steady and observant stance. The market focus is expected to remain temporarily stable, and the PBT market may continue with a stalemate arrangement in the short term. Therefore, Longzhong anticipates that tomorrow the East China market for medium to low viscosity PBT resin will be priced at 7650-7900 RMB/ton.
