In today's trading session on the Shenhua Auction Platform, diversified trends were reported for both PP and LLDPE portfolios: LLDPE futures were on a slight rebound while PP was on a softer note. Deals achieved were slightly better than yesterday, especially for LLDPE performing extraordinarily.
Auction prices were largely stable from the previous trading day, therefore, the satisfactory number of transactions indicated buyers’ willingness to make replenishments, LLDPE in particular, due to the better demand prospect from the agricultural film sector.
