Auction sales for both PP and PE were comparatively weaker than yesterday, with PPH auction prices down by CNY10/ton and LL down by CNY50/ton. Traders noted that in the current market sentiment, only discounted prices seem to attract deals.
Although deal price was concluded for PPH and LLDPE, buyers' acceptance of price levels remains weak. Buyers are sourcing based on immediate needs, contributing to ongoing deals amid discounts or softer prices. However, caution persists as many assess the potential for a price rebound soon.
