In the span of two weeks, the Rupiah depreciated 1.9% to 15,756 to a dollar on 29 January 2024. A weaker local currency elevated commodity traded in that currency. However, buyers are not entirely fixated on the currency fluctuations. Instead, attention is drawn to the ramifications of the shipping turmoil, which is beginning to impact monomer upstream prices.
A buyer shared insights into the current outlook, noting, "The upstream costs are on the rise and it is just a matter of time before the local market catches on. Despite having sufficient stocks at the moment, attempting to procure more PP and PE cargoes from local suppliers proves challenging due to tight spot availability." The source further revealed a backlog of shipments for January PP deliveries, particularly for PP film, with potential carryovers to February shipments.
