market outlook
The conflict between Iran and Israel has not yet intensified further, and geopolitical tensions have temporarily eased. However, Israel has not given up its military response. The instability in the Middle East still exists, and international oil prices are expected to have room to rise. International crude oil closed down overnight, negative for the market mentality, but retail price limits are about to be raised. In addition, due to the boost from stocking before May Day, demand is improving. In terms of supply, the overall shipments of refineries in the middle of the month were still acceptable, and merchants in the middle and lower reaches replenished the appropriate amount. On the whole, China's gasoline market is expected to remain mainly stable in the short term and increase in a narrow range.
