For the second trading day in a row, Shenhua steps back on deal prices for both coal-based homo-PP and LLDPE cargoes, still, the buying interest remains relatively thin. 

Chinese buyers continue to wait on the sideline to monitor the outcomes of the Congress Meeting, also for the latest round of COVID-19-related lockdowns to ease.
