International oil prices rose as a whole this week. On May 5, international crude oil futures continued the rise of the previous trading day and rose slightly. The settlement price of the main contract of WTI crude oil futures in the United States was US $108.26/barrel, up US $0.45 or 0.4%; The settlement price of the main contract of Brent crude oil futures was US $110.90/barrel, up US $0.76 or 0.7%. Earlier, the EU formulated a plan to gradually stop importing Russian oil, and the oil embargo triggered concerns about supply tightening. At the same time, the decline in demand caused by epidemic control measures in Asia, the strengthening of the US dollar and the downward pressure on global stock markets limited the rise of oil prices.

Basically, pure benzene has a good support. Sinopec has continuously raised the ex factory price of pure benzene to 8950 yuan / ton within the week, which once again boosted the confidence of the domestic market, and the price of local refining has increased significantly. In terms of inventory, at present, the inventory of pure benzene ports in East China has decreased continuously, while the inventory of some subordinate enterprises of Sinopec has tightened, and the price of pure benzene has risen all the way under multiple positive supports, By the time of publication, the price of pure benzene in the domestic mainstream market is about 8650-9000 yuan / ton, and the price of hydrogenated benzene is rising. At present, the market price in East China has risen to about 8850-8950 yuan / ton.

The price of main production areas such as Shanxi, Hebei and Shandong has increased significantly. Among them, the bidding price of Shandong this week is 7260-7265 yuan / ton, up 330 yuan / ton compared with that before the festival. Some enterprises auctioned the supply of goods after the festival before the festival, and the pre Festival price is still implemented this week. Overall, the fundamentals are good, the support is strong, the rise of the industrial chain is obvious, and the downstream demand is OK. It is expected that the market will continue to maintain a stable medium strong trend in the near future. In the future, we will continue to pay attention to the impact of the international crude oil market, the external market, the dynamics of pure benzene and downstream devices, and changes in demand on the price of pure benzene.

At the beginning of the month, the rise of the domestic methanol market slowed down, the crude oil fluctuated widely, and the weak demand led to the terminal’s resistance to receiving goods at high prices. The domestic methanol spot market was slightly deadlocked.

 

In the first ten days of the month, the domestic methanol market fell slightly, the market atmosphere was slightly deadlocked, the traders bought gas in general, and the shipment was not smooth. The support of raw material coal price for methanol production cost was weakened. Although the equipment maintenance of some enterprises was slightly favorable in terms of supply, the downstream demand was still depressed.

 

In mid June, the domestic methanol market rebounded after falling, and the transaction volume was large. At the beginning of the week, domestic factories sharply reduced their quotation under the pressure of shipment. Due to the low inventory in the middle and lower reaches, the supply was reduced and replenished. The transaction volume was immediately increased, and the receiving price rebounded rapidly.

 

In late June, the domestic methanol market rose first and then fell, with limited overall volatility. Crude oil and macro atmosphere have weakened, affecting the decline of the futures market. Domestic production enterprises in the main production areas raised their quotations, but the transactions in various regions were different.

 

At the end of the month, macro and coal price support may be limited. In terms of fundamentals, the supply is still abundant, the marginal demand may weaken, and the methanol market may decline weakly
