As of November 25, the settlement price of WTI main contract of international crude oil was 45.71 USD / barrel, up 26.38% compared with the beginning of the month, while the settlement price of Brent main contract was 48.61 USD / barrel, up 26.84% compared with the beginning of the month. It has reached the highest level since March. On the one hand, the successive positive news of the new crown vaccine has boosted the demand expectation; on the other hand, according to the news released from the market, OPEC + is expected to further maintain the current super scale production reduction, which is beneficial to the supply expectation. PTA market began to stop falling and rebound on November 10 under the support of crude oil. As of November 29, the average market price was 3343 yuan / ton, up 7.21%.

 

In addition, after the hot market in October, the downstream textile enterprises received a lot of orders, the inventory was consumed, the shortage of funds was alleviated to some extent, and at the same time, it had the ability to purchase in large quantities. The end of each month is the time for many enterprises to purchase raw materials, and soon to December, some textile enterprises prepare for the end of the year to store raw materials. In the case of continuous decline in raw materials for a month, look for regular bargain hunting. On November 25, the production and sales of mainstream factories in Jiangsu and Zhejiang were between 150% and 230%, and that of some factories was about 500%.

 

Xia Ting, an analyst at the business agency, believes that the final thing for weaving enterprises to purchase raw materials is terminal demand. In November, the traditional textile off-season saw a significant decrease in the number of orders, and the start-up rate also dropped from 93% at the beginning of the month to about 85%. Some textile enterprises received orders in October have not yet received the payment time, so the capital pressure has not been fundamentally solved, so cautious procurement is the main. And raw material market, crude oil continued to rise, lack of power, PTA supply surplus pressure remains. Therefore, the price of polyester filament will continue to weaken in December.

The price of Recycled PVC continued to strengthen in the third quarter, and there is still room for growth in the fourth quarter

In the third quarter, the Recycled PVC was stable and small, and only part of it was expected to fluctuate; in the fourth quarter, the Recycled PVC was still faced with regional supply shortage. This paper will focus on the analysis of the third quarter performance and the fourth quarter forecast.

 

ferric sulfate (Poly ferric sulphate)

After experiencing the steady rise of hard materials in the second quarter and the mutual rise and fall of soft materials, the Recycled PVC market in the third quarter of 2020 has entered a long-term sustained strong trend with little change.

 

In terms of soft particles, most recycling manufacturers normally produce and supply sufficient supplies. Although the supply of some raw materials, such as door curtains and steel hose, was a little tight in late August, the overall downstream demand was weak. The purchase of downstream manufacturers was limited, and the on-site shipment was poor, and the inventory increased. In mid August, some of the prices were above 5000 yuan / T, and the particles were under pressure, while others remained stable.

 

However, after the price cut, the deal did not improve, and some manufacturers of recycled soft products stopped work late. At the end of September, due to the shortage of raw materials in some parts of Hebei Province, as well as the positive signs of downstream exports, the price of soft products rose and the shipment improved. The broken white curtain rose to 5000 yuan / ton, 100 yuan / ton higher than the end of the second quarter, and 400 yuan / ton lower than the same period last year.

 

In terms of hard crushing materials, Recycled PVC manufacturers are in normal production, and the supply in most regions is stable. For example, in the first half of July, some regions such as Dingzhou and Wuhan are in short supply due to the shortage of raw materials. Since the end of last ten days, the number of raw materials and broken materials in this area gradually increased. The overall demand is good and the on-site shipment is smooth.

 

In the first half of the third quarter, most manufacturers reported that the shipment in the third quarter was fair, but the shipment volume decreased compared with the same period last year, and the transactions were concentrated among old customers; only a few manufacturers reported that the supply was in short supply this year, and new customers’ inquiries were more positive. After the middle of September, some manufacturers also reported that the demand has become weak in the near future.

 

In the third quarter, the PVC market price showed an upward trend, and the price fluctuation range was relatively reduced. Taking East China SG-5 as an example, the lowest price in the third quarter was 6228 yuan / ton, the highest price was 6725 yuan / ton, and the cumulative increase was 497 yuan / ton.

 

In the third quarter, the supply began to increase gradually, and the arrival of imported goods increased significantly. There was still a part of the demand for rush work, but the demand for rush work was gradually coming to an end, and with the hot weather, some demand showed a slight month on month decrease. The overall contradiction between supply and demand in the market is not large, inventory de stocking is slowing down obviously, and there are differences between long and short markets, but the upward trend of prices has not been broken.

 

In the first ten days of July, the market experienced a wave of relatively obvious pull-up under the support of abundant liquidity and good macro-economy. However, from the end of July to the first ten days of September, the overall price was mainly fluctuated. Since the end of September, with the support of terminal stock and export order growth exceeding the expectation, the price has risen again.

Seasonal forecast

 

The main factors influencing the market of Recycled PVC in the next quarter are economic situation, supply and demand, etc.

 

Economic situation: at present, local governments at all levels have also made plans and plans to tackle key problems with all their strength, and sprint for the fourth quarter to ensure the completion of the annual targets and tasks. Judging from the focus of the work in the fourth quarter of the decisive battle, expanding effective investment, promoting consumption expansion and quality improvement, and fully releasing the potential of economic development are still the key tasks.

 

Supply of Recycled PVC: at present, most of the Recycled PVC manufacturers are in normal production, and there is no change in the short term, so the probability of active shutdown is small. In some regions, the supply of hard and soft products is still insufficient, and it is expected that the supply of goods in some regions will be tight.

 

Demand for Recycled PVC: the seasonal demand is flat, there is a certain rigid demand support, downstream manufacturers are expected to purchase mainly on demand.

 

In summary, the supply and demand side of Recycled PVC has a greater impact, and it is expected that the Recycled PVC in the fourth quarter will show a stable, medium and narrow plate situation.

Cost increase and demand stimulate the price of polyaluminum chloride to rise about 4.7% in October

Commodity index: on October 31, the commodity index of polyaluminum chloride was 90.97, which was the same as yesterday, 16.55% lower than 109.01 (2019-08-28), and 7.89% higher than the lowest point of 84.32 on August 18, 2020. (Note: cycle refers to the period from April 1, 2019 to now)

 

Azodicarbonamide (AC foaming Agent)

Data show that in October, the market of polyaluminum chloride was in a fluctuating upward trend. Among them, the highest price of the mainstream quotation of polyaluminum chloride with solid content and content ≥ 28% appeared at about 1682.86 yuan / ton at the end of the month, and the lowest price was 1607.14 yuan / ton, with the maximum increase of 4.71% this month. This is also the best month for polyaluminum chloride market since 2020. The price of raw material hydrochloric acid has been raised, but the price of calcium powder has not been lowered since the increase in previous months. The price of fuel and natural gas used in the production process has risen sharply this month, resulting in an increase in the cost of polyaluminum chloride manufacturers this month, with the price of polyaluminum increased by about 150 yuan / ton.

 

Raw material cost: hydrochloric acid: according to the monitoring of the business agency, the price in North China is mainly stable, with some small increases: in October 30, the price of polyaluminum chloride in Meihua, Dezhou has been raised several times, and now it has been reported to 210 yuan / ton. The quotations of Jinan Yuanfei, Taiyuan kunshengda, Shanxi Wenshui and Dezhou Shihua are relatively stable. Henan Province: according to the manufacturers of polyaluminum chloride, the price of hydrochloric acid rose to about 180 yuan / ton in September. In October, the price of local hydrochloric acid continued to rise, which caused great cost pressure to polyaluminum chloride manufacturers. In addition, from the perspective of market rules, the downstream is also in September and October for environmental protection water treatment and reserve raw materials for heating season. Under the dual stimulation of cost and demand, polychlorinated chlorine (PCL) Most of the ex factory prices of aluminum chemical industry have risen, with an increase rate of about 150 yuan / ton this month.

 

This month, the price of natural gas, a fuel used in the production of polyaluminum chloride, has soared. According to the monitoring of the business agency, with the opening of heating in winter, some areas have begun to replenish the fuel, and the demand is gradually increasing. At present, the downstream procurement is active, the production and sales of liquid plants are not under pressure, the market atmosphere is good, and the price is strong. In addition, multiple favorable factors, such as cost rise, have promoted domestic liquefaction However, the price of natural gas is generally rising. It is expected that the domestic LNG market will continue to rise in the short term. The current mainstream quotation is about 3766.67 yuan / ton, which has increased by more than 43% this month. For polyaluminum enterprises with such a large increase, the pressure will increase suddenly, and it is inevitable that the ex factory price of polyaluminum will rise this month.

 

Downstream demand: in the traditional peak season of “Jinjiu Yinshi”, the price of polyaluminum chloride increased significantly, especially in October. With the strict requirements of environmental protection inspection and the coming of winter heating season, the demand for polyaluminum in water treatment projects has increased significantly. Many manufacturers said that this month is the best month in 2020, and downstream demand is expected to continue to be good.

 

Industry: in October, the water treatment industry as a whole is in the annual sales peak season, and the market rise is mainly subject to the rising pressure of the cost side and the demand for water treatment products caused by the upcoming heating season and environmental protection pressure. The market is generally optimistic about the market situation of the water treatment industry in the heating season.

 

Aftermarket forecast: according to the analysis of business agency, the traditional season of “golden nine silver ten” has obvious characteristics, and the market in October is better than that in September. Based on the demand of heating season, the price of polyaluminum chloride is rising due to the continuous rise of raw material cost. Due to the coming of heating next month, the comprehensive influence of environmental protection and cost rise, the demand for water treatment will continue to have a certain support Due to the strict requirements of environmental protection, it is still unknown whether there will be shutdown and rectification due to environmental protection. In addition to policy factors, from the perspective of market rules, polyaluminum chloride trend still has upward momentum.
