1、 Price trend

In April, the domestic market of dimethyl ether changed too fast, and the overall market still fell. At the beginning of the month, the average price of domestic DME market was 2590.00 yuan / ton, and at the end of the month, the average price was 2496.67 yuan / ton, with a drop of 3.6% in the month, 27.21% lower than the same period last year.

2、 Influencing factors

Product: the market of dimethyl ether fell in April, and the atmosphere of market transaction was better in the early stage and lighter in the later stage. As of April 30, there is no price for the parking of DME devices in Yutai, Shandong shengdeyuan, Henan Yima Xinyuan and Shanxi orchid company. The ex factory price of DME of Henan Lankao Huitong Chemical Co., Ltd. is 2520 yuan / ton, the ex factory price of DME of Henan xinlianxin Chemical Industry Group Co., Ltd. is 2490 yuan / ton, and the ex factory price of DME of Henan Shengxin Biotechnology Co., Ltd. is 2480 yuan/ The factory price of dimethyl ether of Hebei Jichun Chemical Co., Ltd. is 2600 yuan / ton.

Market: at the beginning of the month, DME market as a whole is the main actor. The international crude oil soared, driving the cost of methanol and liquefied gas up. In addition, the downstream storage and replenishment operations after the Qingming Festival were more active in entering the market, the manufacturers shipped more smoothly, the inventory was released, and the price continued to push up. On September 9, the international crude oil fell, which depressed the market to a certain extent, and the price fell slightly. However, the liquefied gas continued to push up driven by the sharp rise of propane, and the price difference between gas and ether gradually opened, which again brought benefits to the dimethyl ether Market. The dimethyl ether took advantage of the rising trend, and Henan xinlianxin increased the price for four consecutive days. However, the rise was short of substantial positive results. Subsequently, with the sharp fall of liquefied gas, DME followed the decline, and the price fell sharply in the short term. With the completion of a new round of replenishment in the downstream, the market has been closed for a long time, and the mentality is more cautious. In addition, with the continuous bottoming of cost methanol, the market transaction atmosphere has become weak, and the decline of dimethyl ether is hard to change. On the 23rd, under the favorable rebound of international crude oil, the liquefied gas market rose slightly, while dimethyl ether only stopped falling and stabilized, and then rose slightly. But it ended down again at the end of the month.

Industry: according to the price monitoring of the business agency, there are four commodities in the list of price rise and fall of bulk commodities in April 2020, among which the top three commodities are liquefied gas (4.99%), MTBE (4.92%) and methanol (3.59%). There are 12 kinds of commodities falling on a month on month basis, with 6 kinds of commodities falling by more than 5%, accounting for 37.5% of the monitored commodities in the sector; the top three products falling are WTI crude oil (- 25.05%), asphalt (- 23.39%) and naphtha (- 18.96%). This month’s average rise and fall was – 6.46%.

3、 Future forecast

The price of domestic methanol continued to decline in late April, and the international oil price fell to a negative number in April. Market panic spread and investors’ interest was not high. The civil use of liquefied gas is also vulnerable to the impact of crude oil, but at present, the terminal market is mostly recovering, the demand for catering industry has increased, to some extent, it has been supported, and the price of dimethyl ether has dropped to a relatively low level, with limited space for decline. It is expected that the dimethyl ether Market as a whole may rise slightly.

1、 Price trend

According to the data of the bulk list of business agencies, the market of PA66 in China continued to be weak in April, and the price of PA66 decreased slowly throughout the month. As of Thursday, April 30, the average price of the mainstream offer of PA66 is about 20050.00 yuan / ton, 8.24% lower than the average price at the beginning of the month.

Analysis of influencing factors:

PA66 upstream adipic acid market after March’s market plunge, the current price is low. Most of the spot price adjustments are weak. Influenced by the sharp reduction of settlement price and listing price in April by the manufacturer, the price of adipic acid is generally reduced through the price offer. At present, the market is still generally affected by public health events at home and abroad, and the supply and demand are not prosperous. Most of the manufacturers are still bullish, however, they still maintain a high rate of start-up. Although most of the dealers have returned to normal delivery, they still haven’t reached the level of delivery before the epidemic, which leads to the gradual increase of inventory pressure of the manufacturers. On the cost side, in mid April, the price of pure benzene was affected by the rebound of crude oil at that time, showing a significant rebound, but still at a low price. In addition, the delay of cost conduction did not bring fundamental benefits to adipic acid. The downstream construction load still needs to be further improved, and it is difficult to expand the demand side. At present, the whole chemical industry market is impacted by the background of low oil price, and the market confidence is generally lax. The upstream bad is still an important factor restricting the adipic acid market, more importantly, affected by weak market demand, foreign orders shrink sharply, and adipic acid export is hit. It is predicted that the price of adipic acid will not improve in the near future;

The upstream adipic acid gave poor support to the PA66 cost side, and the market price of PA66 continued to weaken throughout April, with a negative market side. On the supply side, PA66 spot showed consistent adequacy, and the starting load of downstream plants was low. The background of imbalance between supply and demand remains unchanged. Moreover, PA66 plastic products are in the off-season of consumption recently, which is difficult to boost the market. The on-site trading is just in need, with few trading information and no large-scale stock.

Future forecast:

Business analysts believe that: in April, the domestic PA66 market continued to adjust its weak position. The spot price of adipic acid in the upstream is low, which is not good for PA66. The return rate of downstream factories needs to be improved. The replenishment operation is rigid and the demand is very limited. The market atmosphere is oversupplied, and the industry has insufficient confidence in the future market. It is expected that PA66 market will not improve in the short term.

Report station of potassium sulfate manufacturer in water salt system: Xinjiang 51-52% powder 3100-3150; Qinghai 50% powder 2300-2380. The price of Mannheim potassium sulfate in Sichuan Province is still at the top of the domestic market. The factory price of 52% of all water soluble powder is about 2950 yuan / ton, but the local price is also slowing down from the trend. The potassium sulfate manufacturers in Qinghai water salt system started well, and the sales pressure was not large for the time being. However, the enthusiasm of the downstream payment customers to pick up the goods was obviously weakened, which was also caused by the impact of the environment. At the present stage, the market is dominated by early orders, with few new orders clinched. Some manufacturers are under certain pressure in sales. The high-end transaction price has a large margin of preference, and the market remains stable in the short term. Currently, the factory price of 50% powder of Mannheim type potassium sulfate in North China is mostly about 2650-2750 yuan / ton, and the factory price of 50% grain is mostly about 2700-2900 yuan / ton. The transaction can be negotiated. Except for potassium chloride, other influencing factors in the potassium sulfate Market have not changed much.

2、 Market analysis

Product: in late April, the overall market of organosilicon DMC is still weak and low-level operation. Influenced by the factors such as the slight recovery of the downstream market of silicone rubber, the price of some low-end quotations increased slightly last week, with the adjustment range of around 100-200 yuan / ton. The slight price increase of some manufacturers has not played a certain role in boosting the terminal market, and the downstream wait-and-see attitude is still the same. We are purchasing on demand Be careful of hoarding. In the early stage, the bidding game of the factory has eased the inventory to a certain extent. At present, the market has mostly stabilized operation, and another regulation of the market is closely related to the operating rate. In the future, the operating rate of the single factory still needs to be paid attention to. As of April 26, the mainstream market of organosilicon DMC was weak and volatile, with the mainstream reference of 14500-15300 yuan / ton and the low-end quotation of 14100 yuan / ton.

Upstream: crude oil fell first and then rose this week. On April 20, WTI crude oil futures market prices in the United States fell sharply, with June contract at 20.43 yuan / barrel, down $4.60 (- 18.4%). Brent crude oil futures market prices fell sharply, the main contract at $25.57/barrel, down $0.26. At one time, the contract fell to a negative range in May, but from the perspective of the contract in June, the negative value was the exception, not the normal state of the global crude oil market. On April 23, WTI crude oil futures market prices in the United States rose sharply, with the settlement price of major contracts at 16.50 yuan / barrel, up $2.72 or 19.7%. Brent crude oil futures market prices rose sharply, the main contract settlement price was 24.79 US dollars / barrel, up 4.42 US dollars or 21.7%. This is also the international crude oil rebound for two consecutive days, with WTI up more than 40%, mainly due to the accelerated production reduction of oil producing countries, as well as peripheral geopolitical factors.

Dynamic of manufacturers: at the beginning of the week, under the attack of international crude oil, petrochemical enterprises continued to decline, successively reducing the ex factory price of PE, and the market cost support strength weakened. Then the linear futures fell back in shock, affecting the market mentality, the mood of merchants was pessimistic, and the price fell accordingly. Downstream market entry enthusiasm is not high, more on-demand replenishment, strong wait-and-see mood. Later in the week, the rebound of international crude oil supported the market to a certain extent, and the price stopped falling and returned to stability. At present, the overall contradiction between supply and demand still exists in the market, and the atmosphere continues to be weak.

Futures trend: this week, the futures market first fell and then rose, with a large amplitude. At the beginning of the week, the market fell in shock, the market atmosphere was short, and the weekend futures prices rose. On April 24, the opening price of polyethylene futures l2009 was 6080, the highest price was 6175, the lowest price was 6020, the closing price was 6110, the former settlement price was 5960, the settlement price was 6090, up 150, up 2.52%, the volume was 560181, the position was 353346, and the daily position was 1406. (quotation unit: yuan / ton).

Downstream: at present, it is in the production season of plastic film, the demand for plastic film in the downstream has increased, and the market confidence has improved. The construction of large and medium-sized enterprises in the northern part of geomembrane is acceptable, about 50-80%. However, small and medium-sized enterprises have rarely started construction. The demand for mulch film in South China is coming to an end. Except for some large-scale enterprises to maintain production, most of them have been shut down. Later orders are expected to decrease.

3、 Future forecast

The trend of international crude oil rebounded and the linear futures also rose, bringing certain support to the market. In the late week, most of the prices of petrochemical enterprises have stopped falling and stabilized, and the enthusiasm of the downstream market has improved. However, petrochemical inventory is at a medium and high level, and there is still pressure on sales, or price control. It is expected that the future market will rise in the short term.

On April 20, WTI crude oil futures market prices in the United States fell sharply, with June contract at 20.43 yuan / barrel, down $4.60 (- 18.4%). Brent crude oil futures market prices fell sharply, the main contract at $25.57/barrel, down $0.26. At one time, the contract fell to a negative range in May, but from the perspective of the contract in June, the negative value was the exception, not the normal state of the global crude oil market.

June contract is the most active main contract in the current WTI futures market. Although the decline was more than 18% yesterday, the trading price was more than $20 per barrel, still at the bottom of the $20 / barrel range.

WTI contract fell by more than 300% in May, but it is not the main contract, which belongs to the situation of “too much air force” close to delivery (delivery on Tuesday), which shows that oil companies that need to make physical delivery of crude oil in the near future may not find a place to store these crude oil, especially the decline of refining capacity of US refineries leads to the gradual increase of crude oil inventory, and the lack of demand caused by the combined epidemic has already made us oil storage The device has reached its limit. According to data, as of the week of April 17, crude oil inventory in Cushing, the delivery place of West Texas light crude oil on the New York Mercantile Exchange, increased to 61 million barrels, and the crude oil inventory capacity in Cushing was about 78 million barrels. Cushing faces the risk of expansion. In addition, we can see the clue from the floating oil storage. The data shows that the offshore floating oil storage in July 2019 was about 24 million barrels, but up to now, it is estimated that the long-term floating oil storage has reached a record 160 million barrels. According to the business club, the urgency of global storage capacity may cause unprecedented pressure on oil prices in the future, and oil prices may continue to decline. In particular, the epidemic may recover the affected demand in a long term. According to the agency’s calculation, the current crude oil demand has dropped by 30%, about 30 million barrels / day. However, from the perspective of OPEC and other oil producing countries’ production reduction, it is obviously not enough.

In addition, the decline in fuel demand may lead to more and more refinery capacity decline, which will further aggravate the crude oil surplus and inventory shortage. Due to capital constraints, crude oil drilling companies have cut costs and cancelled plans. According to Baker Hughes service, US crude oil drilling companies closed 13% of us drilling platforms this week, so far, more than one third of them have Us drilling has been shut down; however, OPEC + production reduction agreement can not solve the recent problems. The date of OPEC + production reduction agreement is May 1, and from the latest exposed information, it was reported on April 20 that Russia has increased its oil production by nearly 1% in the past three days, which shows that the multi interests of the market do not tend to be consistent, which also makes more market people lose confidence in the production reduction agreement , which will cause the oil price to remain in a bearish state and further increase the downward pressure.
