1、 Price trend

 

Gamma Polyglutamic Acid

According to the data of the business club’s block list, the domestic xylene market price showed a downward trend this week. Xylene price was 4060 yuan / ton on December 20, and 3954 yuan / ton on this Sunday (December 27), down 104 yuan / ton or 2.61% compared with last week.

 

2、 Analysis and comment

 

During the week, Sinopec’s xylene prices in East and central China were reduced by about 150 yuan / ton, while those in South and North China were reduced by 100 yuan / ton. Xylene inventory in East China ports this week was about 88700 tons, a month on month decrease of 18000 tons. During the week, crude oil fell due to bad news, which led to the weakness of xylene external market, while the domestic xylene market fell. Downstream PTA, PX, ox and other weak demand; this week’s gasoline price volatility, weak market atmosphere. Xylene holders are reluctant to sell at low prices and wait and see the price trend of crude oil and refined oil.

 

In terms of crude oil, a more infectious new crown mutant virus was found in the UK last weekend. Most cities in the UK implemented strict City closure measures. The market worried that the demand for crude oil would be frustrated again, and crude oil fell due to bad news. Friday is the Christmas holiday, crude oil information is not available. Compared with December 18, Brent fell $1.575/barrel, or 3.03%; WTI fell $1.01/barrel, or 2.05%. Compared with December 31, 2019, Brent decreased by 24.52% and WTI decreased by 20.64%.

 

Downstream, in the PX market, the domestic PX price was stable this week, and the listed price of Sinopec’s enterprises was about 4300 yuan / ton, down 35.82% year on year. PX market based on demand procurement, price stability. As of December 24, the closing prices of p-xylene market in Asia were US $601-591 / T FOB Korea and US $619-621 / T CFR China.

 

In terms of PTA market, the price of PTA in East China rose after falling this week. Compared with last week, the overall price of PTA fell by 25 yuan / ton, or 0.68%, down 25.87% year on year. PTA due to limited maintenance efforts, supply is high, as of December 24, PTA industry operating rate in the vicinity of 85%. In terms of inventory, the downstream polyester started, but it was difficult to further improve due to the “double 11″ and the basic end of Christmas orders, which led to a substantial accumulation of domestic PTA inventory again.

 

In the ox market, ox prices fell sharply this week. The price of ox in East China was 5000 yuan / ton, down 500 yuan / ton or 9.09% from last week. The cost of o-benzene is weak, and the rising power is insufficient; the price of downstream phthalic anhydride plummeted in December, which is bad for o-benzene market, and the demand for o-benzene decreased, and the insufficient demand dragged down the price of o-benzene plummeting. In the future, the good news of o-benzene market weakened and the bad news increased.

 

3、 Future forecast

 

Xylene analysts of business society chemical branch think: first, look at the supply cost side, the implementation of OPEC + production reduction, the total number of us oil wells, weekly EIA and API inventory data. Second, on the demand side, the impact of the worsening global epidemic on crude oil demand, the progress of industrial chain recovery, the economic and trade situation in Europe and the United States, and the progress of economic recovery and rescue plan. Third, look at the geopolitical situation in the Middle East and China and the United States, the progress of new crown vaccine research and development, the dollar index and stock market linkage.

 

Friday is Christmas, crude oil market demand is expected to decline, coupled with uncertainty in the crude oil market, toluene is expected to be weak next Tuesday. The downstream demand is weak, xylene price has great resistance to break through upward, and focus on the trend of gasoline price.

In 2020, caprolactam market price recovers after subduction,

Price trend

 

Gamma Polyglutamic Acid

According to the monitoring of the business agency, the domestic caprolactam market will fall sharply in 2020, and it will return to the price level at the beginning of the year, and the overall performance will be weak. As of December 22, the average offer price of caprolactam sample enterprises was 11300 yuan / ton, only 3.04% higher than the average price level at the beginning of the year. This year, almost all industries have been impacted to varying degrees, such as global health events, anti globalization trade war, and the game between crude oil producing areas, etc., which may be unbearable in 2020, but is there any imbalance in caprolactam industry itself. Business agency analysts take you back to the domestic caprolactam market this year.

 

Cause analysis

 

In the beginning of 2020, the situation in the Middle East will become tense, crude oil will rise, pure benzene market will rise, and cyclohexanone cost pressure will increase. Caprolactam slightly increased depending on raw material price support and logistics resistance. With the influence of social public events, all the good and bad suddenly stopped. Crude oil fell sharply, and the demand for pure benzene was very limited. At the same time, the transportation restriction is more serious, and the overall trading atmosphere of the market is not active, just like the manager has a long holiday, and the market is stagnant. Caprolactam went down all the way for the rest of the first quarter. On April 7, it dropped from the annual low of 7833.33 yuan / ton, a decrease of 28.57% compared with the beginning of the year.

 

The turning point appeared in mid April, and a number of economic stimulus strategies were promulgated at home and abroad. Due to the change of crude oil and raw material pure benzene price, caprolactam price began to stop falling and rise. In addition, the recovery growth and ultra-low rebound brought about by the resumption of production and work, the downstream purchase of pure benzene was active, and the price of pure benzene recovered nearly 30% in the short term, and some areas of Shandong even had tight supply. At the same time, the downstream polyamide polymerization plant resumed production, and the situation of caprolactam supply shortage even lasted until May. Cost side and demand side jointly push up caprolactam spot, but there is a certain contradiction between supply and demand of PA6 callback range is very limited, the support for caprolactam is hard to say stable. Domestic pure benzene price was also higher than the import price, stagflation domestic spot.

 

The domestic market demand for caprolactam is not warm for a long time, and the spot price can only passively follow the ups and downs of upstream. To the third quarter, raw material prices continued to fall in early July, caprolactam cost support weakened, followed by the upstream. Then the pressure of pure benzene delivery was released rapidly, and the price rose sharply. The consumption of caprolactam was weak and the follow-up was lagging behind. The rally came late in August and September. And September is the traditional peak season of downstream PA6, and the industry is looking forward to the positive market brought by large demand. However, PA6′s response to “Jinjiu” was cold, and the consumption of PA6 dropped.

 

In September, the peak season of PA6 downstream of caprolactam was not prosperous, and some enterprises resumed production, resulting in a standstill of pure benzene. Among them, the transaction of PA6 high-speed spinning chips is particularly slow, and the downstream factories are generally hoarding goods in conventional spinning, which is detrimental to the spot price of caprolactam. Fortunately, the “silver 10″ recovered some gains, but this time the market is not so direct. According to the monitoring of the business agency, the market of PA6 was strong after the October Festival, and the downstream staple fiber and wrapping yarn enterprises were more active in resuming work after the festival, but the demand for replenishment failed to maintain, and the conventional spinning chips were weak at the end of October. The main advantage of caprolactam rise in the fourth quarter is the maintenance and load reduction operation of many enterprises. Orchid science and technology innovation, Zhejiang Juhua and Shandong Haili concentrated parking and maintenance, aggravating the supply shortage pattern. On site supply decreased, inventory position decreased, Sinopec high-end caprolactam increased to increase market confidence. By the end of the year, some enterprises resumed work, but the operating rate was still not high, and the pattern of tight supply remained unchanged. Caprolactam continues to be supported by the supply side. Large domestic caprolactam factories generally increase the ex factory price, and the market demand atmosphere remains firm.

 

Year end overview

 

Business agency analysts believe: caprolactam market in 2020 will be depressed first and then rise, and the price center of gravity will be recovered. At the end of the year, both supply and Inventory were low, and the downstream load level was high. At present, the atmosphere of caprolactam is acceptable. It is expected that the market will maintain a positive operation in the short term. But overall, the demand is not strong, almost throughout the year, analysts worry that the temporary supply side will not boost prices for a long time. The health of caprolactam industry is inseparable from the coordinated development of the upstream and downstream of the industrial chain.

(Note: period refers to 2011-12-01 to now).

 

Gamma Polyglutamic Acid

It can be clearly seen from the rare earth index chart that the domestic rare earth prices continued to fall this week, and the recent rare earth market changes frequently, and the market prices have been falling. In terms of products:

 

It can be clearly seen from the product price trend chart that the domestic prices of PR Nd oxide, PR nd alloy, Nd 2O 3 and Nd metal decreased slightly. As of December 18, the price of PR Nd oxide in domestic rare earth was 399500 yuan / T, with a decline of 0.75% this week; the price of PR nd alloy was 502500 yuan / T, with a decrease of 0.99% this week; the price of neodymium oxide was 492500 yuan / T, which fell this week The price of neodymium was 592500 yuan / ton, a decrease of 0.84%; the price of praseodymium oxide and praseodymium metal also declined to varying degrees, and the market price of light rare earth continued to decline slightly in recent years.

 

In recent years, domestic sales of new energy vehicles are normal, and wind power, electronic products and other terminal industries are developing rapidly. With the slowing down of the epidemic situation, downstream manufacturers’ capacity utilization rate is normal, and the demand for NdFeB is mainly on demand. However, the demand for NdFeB is still high. However, some time ago, merchants have been active in purchasing, and their stocks are high. Recently, the market price of light rare earth is gradually falling. Recently, the demand and stock up situation of permanent magnet manufacturers has come to an end, and overseas demand is relatively normal. With the official entry into force of the export control law of the people’s Republic of China on December 1, the market expects that China’s rare earth export will be further reduced, and the global rare earth supply may further shrink. At that time, the supply of rare earth will be more tense, but the domestic demand for rare earth is general, and the price of rare earth market will rise and fall 。 Recently, the domestic heavy rare earth market terbium series price maintains the high level, but the direct market price trend this week is temporarily stable.

 

It can be seen from the trend chart that the price trend of domestic direct line is temporarily stable. As of the 18th day, the price of dysprosium oxide was 1930000 yuan / ton, which was flat this week; the price of dysprosium ferroalloy was 1.92 million yuan / ton, and the price of metal dysprosium was 2.425 million yuan / ton, but the domestic price of terbium series continued to rise, with 6.8 million yuan / ton of terbium oxide, 8.65 million yuan / ton of terbium oxide, and the price of terbium series rose to 10 A new high in the year. In the near future, the domestic supply and demand of rare earths are expected to be greatly affected by the tight domestic supply and demand of rare earth, and the domestic demand for rare earth is expected to be greatly affected by the tightening of rare earth supply and demand in China Market supply tension, supply and demand imbalance, terbium series market prices remain high.

 

Under the new situation, the strategic value of rare earth is expected to continue to increase. The United States, Japan and Europe and the United States have made corresponding plans to include rare earth in the national strategic resource reserve plan. The advantages of rare earth strategic resources are prominent. China is a large rare earth reserve country, and its rare earth reserves account for 37% of the world. At the same time, China is also a major rare earth export country. The state has made corresponding adjustments to the development of rare earth industry, and the rare earth industry is moving towards high quality Development and favorable policies support the development of rare earth industry, and the price of domestic rare earth market has declined.

 

Recently, the domestic demand for rare earths has not changed much, and the domestic supply of rare earths is still tense. Downstream businesses have stopped purchasing, and the rare earth market prices have dropped slightly. Business analysts expect that the rare earth market prices will remain mainly volatile in the future.
