Despite a slight cooling of trading sentiment on the Shenhua Auction Platform compared to the previous session, transaction volumes remained robust. The absence of certain cargoes that typically occupied the lower end of the price spectrum did not deter bidders from actively engaging in new purchases. This indicates sustained demand for appealing PP and PE parcels.
