1、 Price trend

Taking the rutile titanium dioxide produced by sulfuric acid process with large volume in the domestic market as an example, according to the monitoring of bulk commodity data, the price of titanium dioxide fell this month. At the beginning of the month, the average price of domestic titanium dioxide was 20950 yuan / ton, and at the end of the month, the average price was 20783.33 yuan / ton.

2、 Market analysis

In November, the titanium dioxide market gradually entered the off-season, coupled with the gradual cooling in the northern region, the demand contracted. Generally speaking, the demand market in November entered a negative off-season. Up to now, the factory quotation including tax of domestic rutile titanium dioxide is 19500-21800 yuan / ton; The ex factory quotation of anatase titanium dioxide including tax is between 17600-19500 yuan / ton. Downstream demand is light, traders are more cautious and wait-and-see, and the titanium dioxide market mainly operates stably.

According to the customs data, in October 2021, China’s titanium dioxide export was about 115200 tons, with a year-on-year increase of 5.08% and a month on month increase of 7.28%; From January to October 2021, the cumulative export volume was about 1054500 tons, a year-on-year increase of 6.32%, and a year-on-year increase of 62600 tons from January to October 2020.

In terms of titanium concentrate this month, the price of titanium concentrate Market in Panxi area decreased slightly. At present, the titanium concentrate market is relatively cold, the downstream titanium dioxide market is light, enterprises mainly purchase on demand, and the wait-and-see mood is obvious. Up to now, the tax free quotation of 38 grade titanium ore is about 1430-1500 yuan / ton, that of 46 grade 10 titanium ore is about 2150-2280 yuan / ton, and that of 47 grade 20 ore is about 2500-2550 yuan / ton. The downstream titanium dioxide enterprise market is relatively cold, the downstream wait-and-see mood is strong, the market inquiry is general, and purchase on demand. The manufacturer’s inventory has increased, and the overall market is dominated by weak operation. It is expected that the price of titanium concentrate will still be reduced slightly in the short term, and the actual transaction price will be mainly discussed.

According to the customs data, in October 2021, China imported about 186000 tons of titanium ore, a year-on-year decrease of 35.06%, a month on month decrease of 47%, and the import volume decreased by about 165200 tons compared with the previous month.

3、 Future forecast

In November, the domestic titanium dioxide price market was weak and downward. Titanium dioxide analysts of the chemical branch of business society believe that the industry market has entered the off-season and the downstream demand is general. The prices of raw materials titanium ore and sulfuric acid have been lowered one after another, and the cost support of titanium dioxide enterprises is insufficient. It is expected that the titanium dioxide market will be more wait-and-see in the short term, and the actual operation will be discussed according to their respective tasks.

Domestic price trend:

It can be seen from the p-xylene trend chart that the price trend of p-xylene in November was temporarily stable. By the end of the month, the domestic ex factory price of p-xylene was 7300 yuan / ton, which was the same as that at the beginning of the month, with a year-on-year increase of 69.77%. The price trend of domestic PX market was stable in November.

In November, the domestic p-xylene supply was normal, and the domestic PX operating rate was more than 60%. The 600000 ton unit of Sinochem Hongrun petrochemical, Yangzi Petrochemical, Pengzhou petrochemical, Yangzi Petrochemical, Jinling Petrochemical, Qingdao Lidong and Qilu Petrochemical operated stably, The start-up of Urumqi petrochemical plant is about 50%, and the domestic p-xylene supply is general, but the start-up of overseas plants is general, and the price trend of domestic p-xylene is temporarily stable. In November, the trend of international crude oil price fell, and the trend of PX external price fell. As of the 29th, the closing prices in Asia were US $831-833 / T FOB Korea and US $849-851 / T CFR China. Recently, the operating rate of PX units in Asia has been normal. On the whole, the operating rate of p-xylene units in Asia is less than 60%. The supply of PX goods in Asia is general, the closing price of PX has fallen sharply, and the domestic market price of p-xylene has been temporarily stable.

International crude oil prices fell sharply in November, with a decline of 16.30%. The decline in oil prices was mainly due to the following factors: first, since the middle of the year, the outbreak of the European epidemic has triggered investors’ concerns about the demand outlook, and oil prices began to enter the downward channel. Second, in order to deal with domestic inflation, the United States has been committed to suppressing the decline of oil prices. On the 19th, it announced that it would unite with multinational governments to release strategic oil reserves. Affected by supply expectations, oil prices are falling sharply. Finally, on the 26th, a new crown variant strain was found, causing market panic, market concerns about the recovery of future demand, a huge earthquake in the capital market, and oil prices fell sharply with the global stock market. As of November 29, the settlement price of the main contract of WTI crude oil futures in the United States was US $69.95/barrel, and the settlement price of the main contract of Brent crude oil futures was US $73.22/barrel. On the whole, the international crude oil price fell sharply in November, and the price trend of p-xylene was temporarily stable, but there was a downward trend.

In November, the downstream PTA market price fell sharply. As of No. 30, the average PTA market price was 4400-4500 yuan / ton, down 13.21% in November. Honggang petrochemical and Yadong petrochemical units are about to be overhauled, and the start-up of domestic PTA units will decline, but it will remain at the high level of 81.71%. However, the current market supply is still sufficient. Most of the offers from downstream polyester factories are hard demand, and the overall trading atmosphere is light. The downstream polyester plant reduced production, the demand side was expected to decline, and the supply showed a slight accumulation of stocks. The short-term cost support collapsed, superimposed with the expectation of production reduction of many mainstream polyester factories, coupled with the weak operation of the downstream pure polyester yarn market, the wait-and-see atmosphere of consumer terminals was strong, the transaction was cold, the local power restriction policy was basically ended, and the downstream textile manufacturers were mainly just in need of procurement and lack of large single support. In November and December, most yarn factories had to pay production costs, and the capital flow was generally tight. They reduced the procurement of polyester staple fiber and other raw materials one after another. The downstream market was poor, and the market price trend of p-xylene was temporarily stable.

Chen Ling, PX analyst of business society, believes that there is a certain negative impact on the current crude oil cost. In addition, the performance of orders in the terminal market is still weak, customers’ intention to take goods is not high, and the overall market trading atmosphere is light. At the end of this month, some weaving factories plan to continue to shut down and reduce the burden. The pressure on the cost side increases, the mentality of the terminal weaving factory tends to be cautious, and the bad news of the upstream and downstream superimposes. It is expected that the market price trend of p-xylene will decline in the later stage.

According to the data of business agency, as of November 28, the average price of domestic fuel oil 180CST was 5090.00 yuan / ton (including tax), down 1.17% from 5150.00 yuan / ton on November 22.

On November 28, the fuel oil commodity index was 103.09, the same as yesterday, down 17.10% from the highest point 124.35 in the cycle (2021-10-26), and up 123.72% from the lowest point 46.08 on August 15, 2016. (Note: the period refers to the period from September 1, 2011 to now)

The downward price of domestic marine oil raw materials has limited support for fuel oil 180CST. According to the business news agency, as of November 28, the self raised low sulfur quotation of 180 CST fuel oil and 120 CST fuel oil in Zhoushan area was 5300 yuan / ton, and the self raised low sulfur quotation of 5400 yuan / ton; The quotation of 180 CST self extracting low sulfur fuel oil in Shanghai is 5000 yuan / ton, and the quotation of 120 CST self extracting low sulfur fuel oil is 5100 yuan / ton.

This week, international crude oil prices rose first and then declined. U.S. President Biden sought ways to reduce gasoline prices for U.S. consumers, repeatedly mentioned the idea of releasing U.S. strategic oil reserves, and called on China, Japan and South Korea to release crude oil reserves. As soon as the news came out, crude oil prices fell sharply. On the other hand, at present, the organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries and its allies (OPEC +) production increase policy is still relatively conservative, and they still do not show the willingness to expand the scale of production increase under the pressure from the United States. In particular, the market is worried that if the US government continues to suppress oil prices and make oil prices fall sharply, OPEC + may even consider stopping production increase to offset the adverse impact of the decline in oil prices on the recovery of global oil capital expenditure.

Singapore’s fuel oil inventory decreased, which supported fuel oil prices. It is understood that the Singapore enterprise development authority (ESG): as of the week of November 24, the inventory of fuel oil depots in Singapore soared by 1.547 million barrels, reaching an 11 week high of 22.903 million barrels. Singapore’s medium distillate stocks fell 708000 barrels to a three-year low of 8.454 million barrels. Singapore’s light distillate stocks fell by 225000 barrels to a two-week low of 10.985 million barrels.

Future forecast: crude oil has fallen sharply, which is bad for the ship fuel market. The market has a strong bearish attitude, cautious downstream procurement, strong wait-and-see mood, and the transaction is just needed. The market price of fuel oil 180CST low sulfur is about 4900-5200 yuan / ton, and the market price of fuel oil 120cst low sulfur is about 5000-5300 yuan / ton. It is expected that the fuel oil 180CST market may have a downward trend in the near future.

2、 Market analysis

In November, the PVC market first fell broadly, and then maintained a volatile trend. The price rebounded in the latter ten days, but it was difficult to recover the early decline. The overall trend in the month showed a downward trend and the focus shifted downward. This month, the PVC market was significantly affected by the disk drive. The futures price continued to fall, and the spot market quickly followed. In the first week of the month, it fell sharply by 9.32% to the price level in August, and the early increase was basically spit back. Moreover, the raw material calcium carbide fell deeply by about 24% during the week. The PVC cost support was weak, and the price fell below the 9000 yuan mark; In the second week, the disk strengthened and the decline of raw materials stabilized, the PVC market stopped falling and rose by 0.33%, the market transaction atmosphere gradually improved, and the enthusiasm of downstream bargain hunting and replenishment increased. In the third week, the price of raw calcium carbide rose slightly, the PVC low price transaction was good, and the price rose tentatively during the week, but the fluctuation was limited. Near the end of the month, PVC spot continued to rise, but the temperature decreased, the seasonal off-season demand was weak, the downstream purchase was conservative, and continued to rise, lacking the actual driving force.

According to the weekly rise and fall from August 30 to November 21, 2021, it can be seen that the domestic PVC market rose in the early stage of the cycle. Since the downward channel was opened in October, it rebounded slightly in the week of November 8 and 22, but it still rose less and fell more. Under the guidance of bad news, the overall PVC market was dominated by the following actors in November.

In terms of spot, at present, the quotation range of domestic pvc5 electric stone enterprises is mostly around 9000-9500 yuan / ton, and the range of pvc5 electric stone in Hangzhou is 9250-9350 yuan / ton; The mainstream of pvc5 electric stone in Changzhou is 9500-9600 yuan / ton; The mainstream price of PVC ordinary electric stone in Guangzhou is 9600-9800 yuan / ton.

The current price increased by 6.90% month on month, and the current price increased by 33.99% year-on-year. At present, in terms of crude oil: crude oil inventory is expected to rise, and the market continues to decline recently, so the data analysts of business agency expect the external price of ethylene to fall next.

The price of calcium carbide and raw material orchid charcoal fell slightly. At present, shenmulan charcoal is about 1600-1700 yuan / ton, and the cost support of calcium carbide is weakened. The downstream PVC market has stopped falling and maintained stability recently, with a slight upward trend, and downstream customers have increased their enthusiasm for calcium carbide procurement. On the whole, the upstream support of calcium carbide is insufficient, the downstream market rises, and the price of calcium carbide stops falling and rebounds.

3、 Future forecast

PVC analysts of business society believe that the PVC market as a whole fell in November. Although the price of raw calcium carbide has increased slightly and the cost support is OK, the demand in the off-season is weakened. In addition, the operating load of PVC enterprises has increased to a certain extent and the market supply has increased. It is expected that the price will continue to fluctuate without obvious changes in PVC fundamentals in the short term.

The maintenance of on-site fluorite price is a good support for the hydrofluoric acid market, and the domestic hydrofluoric acid market price remains high affected.

The price trend of domestic downstream refrigerant products has dropped, and the operating rate of the refrigerant industry in the field is still not high. Recently, the sales of the automobile industry are normal, and the refrigerant market has dropped at a high level, but the decline is not large. In terms of demand, the refrigerant industry mainly purchases on demand, and the trend has declined. The overall trend of the refrigerant market has dropped, and the price of chloroform has fallen, which has reduced the cost of the refrigerant industry. At present, the price trend of refrigerant R22 is declining. The start-up of major mainstream refrigerant manufacturers is still not high, and the market supply is normal, but the demand is not improved. The demand in R22 market application field is reduced, and enterprises reduce prices for sales. The price of mainstream manufacturers has a downward trend. Up to now, the market price of R22 is in the range of 25000-26000 yuan / ton. The domestic price of R134a declined slightly, the price of trichloroethylene remained, the cost was under pressure, the phenomenon of closing and stopping the report of R134a increased, the market price remained high, and the trading focus changed little. At present, the market quotation of R134a is in the range of 48000-53000 yuan / ton, the high price transaction is weak, the market sentiment is poor, the enterprise’s eagerness to ship is obvious, the actual transaction is more profitable, the downstream refrigerant market has a downward trend, and the resistance to the high price of raw hydrofluoric acid has increased. Affected by this, the price trend of hydrofluoric acid is temporarily stable.

From the industrial chain chart, the price trend of fluorine chemical industry remains high, the price trend of raw material fluorite rises, coupled with the sharp decline in the price of sulfuric acid raw material, the price of downstream refrigerant products has a downward trend, coupled with the recent stable operation of domestic hydrofluoric acid units, the poor acceptance of high level in the downstream, which is affected by various negative effects, Chen Ling, hydrofluoric acid analyst of business society, believes that the market price of hydrofluoric acid is under pressure, the driving force for continuous rise is insufficient, and the price will remain high and stable in the short term.
