*Auction and Deal volumes are in tonnage 

*All USD equivalent prices only exclude the 13% value-added tax (VAT). They have not taken into account other costs that might incur in the selling process, i.e. import duty, customs clearances.

                 

After bumping into stiff resistance on the previous trading day, Shenhua decided to lower deal prices by CNY50/ton from the previous session to draw buyers back to the auction session. Apparently, buying interest for LLDPE remains sluggish while most actions are surrounding the homo-PP grade.
