market outlook

From the perspective of international crude oil, international crude oil closed down overnight, and the news was negative. At present, China's PMI data in December hit a four-month high, and economic data is improving. In addition, OPEC meetings may release good news, and positive factors will increase. In the future, we will pay more attention to changes in the crude oil side. Judging from the Chinese market, the retail price limit for refined oil products will be raised tonight, which is a positive guide. Demand side The Spring Festival is approaching, and gasoline demand is expected to be optimistic. Refinery performance pressure is small, and the mentality of supporting prices still exists. Overall, it is expected that there will still be upward expectations in China's gasoline market in the short term.
