In the first ten days of November, the DMF market went up and fell slightly. Compared with the beginning of this week, the price fell by 300 yuan / ton. At present, the mainstream price range is about 15200 yuan / ton. The DMF market is weak and downward. At present, the supply side is tight, the procurement atmosphere is general, and the overall market is weak. In the consolidation stage, the upstream methyl alcohol is temporarily stable and the room for rise is limited.

The upstream methanol is stable and weak, and the average price of methanol production enterprises is 3056 yuan / ton. In terms of methanol spot market, there are slight differences among regions, and the ups and downs are reflected. The trend of coal is still short, or it will drag the futures disk. On the premise that the supply and demand structure has not been completely improved, the upward resistance of the market is large, and the spot market of methanol may fall.

In late November, the DMF market went up and fell slightly, down 1.99% compared with the price at the beginning of this week. At present, the mainstream price range is about 14800 yuan / ton, and the DMF market is weak and downward. At present, the supply side is tight, the procurement atmosphere is general, and the overall market is weak. In the consolidation stage, the upstream methanol is temporarily stable and the room for rise is limited.

As of November 22, the average price of domestic methanol production enterprises was 2973 yuan / ton. The overall market transaction atmosphere is flat. At present, the international oil price has fallen sharply, Brent has fallen below $80 / barrel, methanol futures operate in shock, and the short-term methanol market is mainly sorted out.

Downstream demand collided with high price sources, and PA66 prices fell

Price trend

EDTA

According to the bulk list data of business society, the domestic PA66 market fell in November, and the spot price of individual brands decreased significantly. As of November 26, the average ex factory price of PA66 adhesive injection molding sample enterprises of business society was about 38850 yuan / ton, with an increase or decrease of – 2.88% compared with the average price at the beginning of the month.

Cause analysis

Industrial chain: in the upstream, the domestic adipic acid price fluctuates weakly this month. Recently, both cost and supply and demand are bad for the adipic acid market, and the demand is expected to improve little. Comprehensively, there is still room for loosening the adipic acid price. Adiponitrile has not improved much. The loss of production capacity of large international factories and the shortage of overseas transportation capacity are still affecting the market, and the supply shortage has not improved. Due to the high dependence on imports of adiponitrile, most domestic PA66 production loads are forced to operate at a low level.

Melamine

The price of upstream raw material adiponitrile is high, and the cost side support of PA66 is acceptable. In November, the operating rate of the industry was still mainly affected by the shortage of adiponitrile. Except Zhejiang Huafeng, the operating rate of PA66 enterprises decreased. In terms of imported materials, the overseas shipping capacity is low, the medium and long-term import and export goods of each port are insufficient, and the inventory position is not high. In terms of demand, the buyer took the goods slowly, the seller’s confidence weakened, and the offer decreased.

Future forecast

Business analysts believe that the spot price of PA66 fell in November. The shortage of adiponitrile at the raw material end has not been improved. The overall load of the polymerization plant is low due to the lack of raw materials, and the support of the supply end for the spot is OK. However, end users have a strong resistance to high price goods, the purchase operation is biased to just need to maintain production, and the on-site trading volume is weak. It is expected that PA66 may continue to operate in a weak adjustment in the near future.

The price of upstream liquid ammonia fell sharply this week. As of the 19th, the price of liquid ammonia was 4380 yuan / ton, down 10.05% from 4896.67 yuan / ton at the beginning of the week. The trading center of Shandong, Hebei and other regions moved downward, with an overall decline of more than 400 yuan / ton, and the mainstream transaction price of liquid ammonia was 4200-4400 yuan / ton. On the supply side, the overall supply this week showed a loose pattern, the operating rate in the main production areas was generally high, the liquid ammonia shipments of enterprises in East China, two lakes and other regions increased, some fertilizer enterprises reduced their own use, and a large amount of ammonia release was also an important reason for the increase in supply. The demand for superimposed urea is insufficient and the inventory is higher, which further puts pressure on the supply of liquid ammonia. Dealers mainly offer low prices, and downstream purchases take goods normally, mainly just in need. At present, with the increase of manufacturers’ shipments, there are more sources of goods in the market, and the inventory has increased significantly compared with the previous period. The sharp decline in the price of upstream liquid ammonia has a certain negative impact on the ammonium nitrate Market, and the market price trend of ammonium nitrate has dropped.

Recently, the demand of the downstream civil explosive industry is acceptable. The market demand for ammonium nitrate is normal, and the spot supply of ammonium nitrate Market is normal recently. However, the price trend of raw material market has fallen sharply, which has a certain negative impact on the ammonium nitrate Market. The ammonium nitrate analysts of business society believe that the market price of ammonium nitrate may continue to decline in the later stage.

povidone Iodine

2、 Analysis and review

Crude oil fell in shock this week, the price weakened broadly, and the cost support collapsed. Within the week, it was reported that the No. 4 atmospheric and vacuum distillation unit of Zhejiang Petrochemical had been fed, and the supply of pure benzene increased in the later stage; The purchase enthusiasm of downstream is not high, the inventory of Shandong local refining enterprises is accumulated, the cargo from East China arrives at the port, and the inventory at the main port is increased; The continuous decline of downstream styrene also depressed the market mentality. This week, Sinopec reduced the price of pure benzene by 600 yuan / ton twice to 6950-7000 yuan / ton.

In terms of external trading, Asian pure benzene fell in the external trading this week. On Friday (November 19), the reference price of pure benzene in the Korean market was US $938 / T, down US $23 / T, or 2.39%, month on month (MOM) on November 12; The reference import price in East China was US $950 / T, down US $45 / T or 4.52% month on month on November 12.

In terms of crude oil, crude oil fluctuated and fell this week, and the price fell broadly. The epidemic situation in Europe worsens again, and the demand for crude oil may be frustrated; The United States may release strategic oil reserves, and the number of active oil rigs in the United States continues to increase this week. The possibility of an increase in crude oil supply also depresses oil prices. Month on month (MOM) on November 12, Brent fell 3.28 USD / barrel, or 3.99%; WTI fell $4.69/barrel, or 5.81%.

Downstream: styrene: the price of styrene fell continuously this week. The price of sample enterprises was 9025 yuan / ton on November 12 and 8575 yuan / ton on November 19, down 4.99% from last week and 3.65% from the same period last year. Energy and chemical commodities are generally weak, the basic expectation of styrene is weak, the mentality of merchants is damaged, and there is a lack of bottom buying and price chasing cooperation in the field. Although the port continues to go to the warehouse sharply, styrene is weak due to the production of new units in December, increased supply and bearish overall capital market.

Aniline: the price of aniline stabilized after a wide decline this week. As of the 12th, the price in Shandong was 13000-13260 yuan / ton; The price of aniline in Nanjing was 13600-13700 yuan / ton, down 3.41% from last week, up 67.09% from the beginning of the year and 92.23% from the same period last year.

Melamine

3、 Future forecast

In terms of crude oil, the recent high gasoline price in the United States may still release strategic reserves. OPEC + still maintained the original production increase plan to support oil prices. Continue to pay attention to the impact of the global epidemic, OPEC + decisions on crude oil production, the inventory dynamics of crude oil and refined oil in the United States, and the global economic situation on crude oil prices.

Downstream: the downstream main product styrene: the cost side support of styrene is weakened. In addition, the supply is expected to increase, and the downstream spot demand continues to be weak. Overall, it is expected that there will be more negative aspects of styrene in the short term and will still be weak consolidation.

The recent trend of crude oil fluctuated and fell, or continue to be bad for the pure benzene market. The trend of styrene is weak, but some downstream units are expected to restart, and the demand for pure benzene may increase. This week, the price of pure benzene fell broadly or stimulated downstream purchase. It is expected that the decline of pure benzene will ease next week, dominated by weak consolidation. Pay attention to downstream market, domestic benzene plant dynamics, crude oil, external market and other trends on the price of pure benzene.

(Note: the period refers to the period from December 1, 2011 to now).

povidone Iodine

Recently, the domestic light rare earth market price has maintained a high level. Recently, the price trend of mainstream praseodymium neodymium commodities in the rare earth market is mainly stable. In terms of products:

It can be clearly seen from the product price trend chart that the domestic prices of neodymium oxide, metal neodymium and metal praseodymium are stable, the prices of praseodymium oxide are slightly lower, and the prices of praseodymium neodymium oxide and praseodymium neodymium alloy are slightly higher. On the whole, the price changes little, and the market trend is stable. As of November 22, the price of neodymium oxide in rare earth in China was 817500 yuan / ton, which was flat this week; The price of praseodymium oxide was 835000 yuan / ton, and the price trend fell by 0.6% this week; The price of praseodymium neodymium oxide was 787500 yuan / ton, and the price trend rose by 0.32% this week; The price of praseodymium neodymium alloy is 960000 yuan / ton, with a rise of 0.79% this week; The price of metal praseodymium is 1.08 million yuan / ton, which is stable this week; The price of neodymium is 990000 yuan / ton. The price is stable this week. The domestic light rare earth market is relatively stable. There is a strong wait-and-see mood in the field, and the light rare earth market price remains at a high level.

The domestic rare earth market is fair, the supply and demand structure changes little, the demand for high-end magnetic materials is normal, the proportion of frequency conversion air conditioners in domestic household appliances continues to increase, the penetration rate of Nd-Fe-B continues to increase, and the demand is fair. In addition, the strong demand for permanent magnet and the rapid development of new energy industry have driven the development of many industries. The upstream material rare earth permanent magnet has also caught the “express” of new energy. The main rare earth raw materials of high-performance Nd-Fe-B are light rare earth praseodymium and neodymium oxide, heavy rare earth dysprosium oxide and terbium oxide, which are used in new energy vehicles, wind power, energy-saving frequency conversion air conditioning, traditional vehicles and other fields. The sales of new energy vehicles are normal. The demand for rare earths is high, and the price of rare earth oxides is maintained. When there is no lock order, the rare earth metal factory mainly focuses on wait-and-see and purchases cautiously. At the same time, the national environmental protection inspector is still continuing, the traditional peak demand season for rare earth is coming, superimposing the launch expectations of relevant policies of the rare earth industry, the supply and demand is expected to resonate with the policies, and the rare earth market continues to rise. In addition, the inventory of neodymium praseodymium oxide has been at a low level, the shipping willingness of the holders is low, and the rare earth price remains high. Finally, the shortage of rare earth supply continues. The supply of rare earth waste is also tight and the price is strong, and the price of praseodymium and neodymium oxide is upside down. With the arrival of the procurement cycle of magnetic material enterprises, the price of praseodymium neodymium system remains at a high level. According to statistics, the demand for new energy vehicles has increased. According to the data released by China Automobile Industry Association, in the first three quarters of 2021, the number of pure electric vehicles has increased by 1101000 year-on-year, and the number of plug-in hybrid vehicles has increased by 211000 year-on-year. The substitution effect on the fuel vehicle market is continuing. The demand for new energy is high in recent years, and the price of domestic light rare earth market remains high.

Sodium Molybdate

As can be seen from the trend chart, the price of dysprosium Series in China decreased slightly. As of the 22nd, the price of dysprosium oxide was 2.92 million yuan / ton, down 1.85% this week; Dysprosium ferroalloy price was 2.89 million yuan / ton, down 2.36% this week; The price of dysprosium metal was 3.78 million yuan / ton, down 1.69% this week; Domestic terbium prices rose and fell. Domestic terbium oxide prices were 10.65 million yuan / ton and metal terbium prices were 14.4 million yuan / ton. The transaction situation in the domestic rare earth market is general. The leading magnetic material factory mainly purchases on demand. Recently, it has been cautious to wait and see. The resistance to high priced rare earth has increased, and the domestic heavy rare earth market price has declined slightly. At present, the rare earth supply in Myanmar is still not smooth, the supply disturbance has further aggravated, and the global rare earth supply is relatively concentrated. Myanmar is one of the production areas second only to China and the United States. Myanmar has a great impact on the products in the domestic heavy rare earth market, and the domestic supply is tight. The production reduction risk of separation enterprises using Myanmar mines in the south is increased. Affected by this, the domestic heavy rare earth supply is tight. In addition, it is in the peak season of heavy rare earth, and the domestic heavy rare earth market price has little decline.

In addition, with the support of national policies, Wang Jiangping, Vice Minister of the Ministry of industry and information technology, pointed out in early July that the regulations on the administration of rare earth will be introduced as soon as possible. We expect that the regulations will be introduced with a high probability within this year, and the national level legislation will regulate the high-quality development of the rare earth industry. Industry insiders believe that this reflects the strengthening of government control over the rare earth industry, which is conducive to the healthy development of the industry. Since 2021, the accelerated promulgation of the regulations on the administration of rare earth will, on the one hand, make the industry have laws to abide by and promote the rare earth industry chain to embark on the road of virtuous circle development; On the other hand, it reflects China’s determination to strictly control the supply order of rare earth and support the price of rare earth as an important strategic resource. The overall demand for rare earth products is acceptable, and the price of domestic rare earth market remains high.

With the sustainable development of new energy vehicles, wind power and variable frequency air conditioning in the downstream of rare earth, the demand continues. In addition, the domestic rare earth supply is still tight and the inventory continues to decline. The recent on-site transaction market is OK, but the downstream procurement is not active recently and the wait-and-see mood is strong. Chen Ling, a business analyst, predicts that the price trend of rare earth market may remain high in the later stage, There is also room for a slight rise.

Crude oil prices rose slightly this week. The settlement price of the main contract of WTI crude oil futures in the United States was US $81.59/barrel, and the settlement price of the main contract of Brent crude oil futures was US $82.87/barrel. The international crude oil market was in a stalemate, mainly based on the concerns of us dollar strength and rising inflation expectations. However, the organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries and its allies (OPEC +) lowered their oil demand forecast for the fourth quarter of this year on Thursday, worried that high energy prices would drag down the pace of economic recovery. However, global demand continues to recover and energy shortage will continue in the short term. Although the price of natural gas in Europe has dropped, due to the substitution of oil, crude oil is in short supply. Especially in winter, heating will increase some demand. Medium and short-term demand will still be good for oil prices. Maintaining high oil prices will have a negative impact on the domestic petrochemical market, The price trend of p-xylene is temporarily stable.

The procurement is more cautious, mainly maintaining the procurement of just needed goods. The comprehensive startup rate of Jiangsu and Zhejiang looms is about 65%, with no obvious change. Recently, px-pta prices have been supported by the crude oil market, but the wait-and-see atmosphere of downstream factories has increased, the procurement enthusiasm is not high, the market situation of the textile industry is poor, and the market price trend of p-xylene is temporarily stable.

Chen Ling, PX analyst of business society, believes that the current crude oil price can be maintained, but the cost side support begins to weaken, the downstream PTA and textile market is poor, PTA stocks are accumulated, and the terminal demand is weak. It is expected that there is room for the market price of p-xylene to fall in the later stage.

povidone Iodine

2、 Analysis of influencing factors

This week, the domestic LNG market first fell and then rose, and then started to rise in an all-round way. The rebound was mainly due to the controllable inventory of the liquid plant, the improvement of shipping atmosphere and the increase of demand after the continuous price reduction sales in the early stage. At the beginning of the week, there was heavy snow in many places in the north, and the traffic was not smooth. The delivery of liquid plants in some areas was blocked. The price decreased by 10.63% on August and September, and the price was as low as about 6700 yuan / ton, which was the bottom of the week; On Wednesday, the logistics gradually returned to normal, and the demand for urban fuel increased. The shipping atmosphere of the liquid plant improved, and the price support mentality was strong. Some regions began to rise tentatively, and the liquid plant with high quotation continued to make a slight correction; Since Thursday, the radius of rising areas has expanded, of which Shaanxi has extended a one-day increase of 780 yuan / ton; On Friday, the rise of liquid price did not decrease, most liquid plants had two price adjustment operations, and the news of a new round of feed gas auction once again boosted the market. At the weekend, the domestic LNG market continued to rise. At present, 7150-7600 yuan / ton in Inner Mongolia, 7470-7820 yuan / ton in Shaanxi, 7450-7800 yuan / ton in Shanxi, 7320-7650 yuan / ton in Ningxia, 7500-7800 yuan / ton in Hebei, 7710-7800 yuan / ton in Henan and 7800-8200 yuan / ton in Shandong. The price of inlet gas is about 7640-8300 yuan / ton, and the prices of domestic gas and imported gas rise.

According to the weekly increase and decrease from August 23 to November 14, 2021, the domestic liquefied natural gas showed mixed gains and losses in the cycle, but more gains and less losses. It decreased by 8.66% in the week of November 1, and then increased by 7.44% in the week of November 8, which basically recovered the decline and continued to rise this week.
