The POM unit of Tangshan Zhonghao resumed operation on September 5. The loss in production due to maintenance increased this week. Methanol prices rise, POM price trends.

4. Price Prediction

Maintenance benefits provide support, and petrochemical plants currently face no shipment pressure, with relatively stable fundamentals. However, POM sales performance across various regions is weak. Due to subdued demand, downstream users show low willingness to purchase, making it difficult for traders to relieve operational pressure. Mainstream market quotations continue with negotiated sales, and actual transactions remain flexible.Longzhong expects the short-term domestic POM market to undergo a narrow range consolidation.

Methanol:The methanol spot price index today is 2184.71, +14.30. Among them, the spot price in Taicang is 2275, 0, and the price in Inner Mongolia North Line is 2097.5, +17.5. According to Longzhong's monitoring of 20 major and medium-sized cities, prices in 12 cities have increased to varying degrees, with increases ranging from 2 to 115 yuan/ton. On Tuesday, the domestic methanol market performed relatively well overall, and the inland market was still significantly stronger than the ports. Currently, with upstream inventories in production areas manageable, olefin companies re-entering the market with external procurement has positively boosted buying sentiment. Most companies conducted premium transactions through auctions, maintaining a good atmosphere. The port market, on the other hand, continued narrow-range linkage adjustments between futures and spot prices, with near-end following as needed, and basis remaining firm. Attention should be paid to the accumulation of port inventories tomorrow and the arbitrage operation pace between Jiangsu Taicang and Lunan regions.
