market outlook
The continuous geopolitical events in international crude oil, coupled with a slight increase in demand for crude oil, may lead to a rise in international crude oil reserves. Affected by changes in international crude oil prices, the market situation in China's gasoline market continues to warm up. However, the phased replenishment of traders in some regions is coming to an end, and the pressure on main performance tasks may increase in the middle and late stages. Overall, China's gasoline market is expected to rise slightly in the short term.
