market outlook
Russian Deputy Prime Minister Novak said that OPEC+ has agreed to take action on crude oil production when necessary, and there are no plans to discuss increasing production for the time being, which will benefit the bearish game. Crude oil closed down overnight. The overall trading atmosphere in the gasoline market was light. There was no holiday support for demand. Gasoline demand was relatively stable, making it difficult to support the upward trend of oil prices. On the supply side, the market has a strong wait-and-see attitude. Most of the middle and lower reaches are in need of procurement, and refinery shipments are average. Overall, China's gasoline market is expected to fluctuate within a narrow range in the short term.
