market outlook

In terms of international crude oil, the impact of geopolitical factors has eased, and crude oil prices are expected to be difficult to rise despite the weak overall market demand.In terms of gasoline in China, the price of crude oil on the cost side closed up, but there is still a lack of new influencing factors on the demand side, no significant improvement has been made, and the enthusiasm for purchasing in the middle and lower reaches has not improved much. In late August, the pressure on sales tasks of various main units gradually increased, and the willingness to bid may be insufficient. Price reductions were promoted, and active shipment operations increased. On the whole, it is expected that China's gasoline market will mainly fluctuate within a narrow range in the short term.
