Shenhua Auction Platform kickstarted the week with a bang as coal-based PE and PP block copolymer achieved 100% deals while homo-PP came very close, missing the mark by just 0.4%. Despite the continued rising futures contracts on the Dalian Commodity Exchange, Shenhua decided to roll over deal prices from the previous session, except LLDPE gaining just CNY10/ton, which became highly appealing to buyers.
“Even spot customers are flocking to the auction platform after a CNY50/ton hike in spot PP and PE prices this morning. Traders like us prefer to do back-to-back business at the moment since the price risks are too high,” a local trader commented.
