market outlook
Israel has withdrawn all troops from southern Gaza. The United States continues to put pressure on Israel. The instability of the geopolitical situation still exists but has not yet escalated further. There is no holiday support on the demand side, and gasoline demand is relatively stable, making it difficult to support the upward trend of oil prices. On the supply side, there will be no new refineries to be overhauled next week. Centralized stocking in the middle and lower reaches has been completed, and some of them just need replenishment. The market fluctuations are limited and calm down. On the whole, it is expected that China's gasoline market will stabilize and operate in a narrow range in the short term.
