1. Carbon black market analysis
At the beginning of the week, China's carbon black market prices remained stable. As of now, the mainstream price of N330 in the carbon black market is 8,000 - 9,000 yuan/ton.
Cost: Today, China's high-temperature coal tar market prices are operating smoothly. Under the pressure of rising costs, the profits of some coke companies have fallen into a state of loss, the operating rate of coke companies has declined, the supply of coal tar in the market has been slightly tight, and the coal tar market has been weak, which has poor support for carbon black costs.
Supply: Today, the start of the carbon black industry has not changed much. Most companies have started steadily, and the overall operating rate of carbon black sample companies fluctuates within a narrow range.
Demand: Recently, terminal demand in the tire industry has been weak, and traders have a more cautious purchasing mentality. In order to promote shipments, some tire companies have adopted certain promotional policies for major customers.

3. Carbon black index analysis
According to Tdd-global's data, the carbon black price index on December 11 was 8,538.25, which was the same as the previous working day.
4. market outlook
In the short term, the high-temperature coal tar market is operating in a weak and consolidated manner, and there is little support for carbon black costs; the downstream tire industry has generally shipped. As corporate inventories continue to rise, it is not enthusiastic about obtaining carbon black raw materials. It is expected that the carbon black market is stable in the short term.
