3. Carbon black market impact analysis

1. Upstream raw materials: Last week, the coal tar market, a raw material for carbon black, declined in a weak manner. At the beginning of the week, the coal tar market was temporarily stabilized and consolidated. However, the commercial and investment atmosphere on the market was light, the loss situation of deep processing companies continued, and the coal tar market had no upward momentum. The support for carbon black was weak;2. The fundamentals of supply and demand for carbon black remained flat, with no obvious positive or negative factors.

There is currently no obvious news on the carbon black market, and the market situation is stable.

4. market outlook

At present, due to the temporary instability of the upstream coke at the raw material end, the loss situation of downstream deep processing enterprises is difficult to change. The overall trend of the coal tar market is currently stable, but it is still weak, which provides poor support for the carbon black cost end; the downstream demand side has recently purchased mainly because of the demand., the price of new orders is seriously depressed. The negative factors in the carbon black market have not diminished in the near future, and there is still room for downside in market prices.
