II. Summary of gasoline market
Wholesale gasoline prices in China were mixed this week (20231110-20231116), with low-end gasoline prices in North China, South China and Central China rising by 50-150 yuan per ton. The price of gasoline in southwest China and northeast China will be reduced by 30-200 yuan per ton. Gasoline prices in Northwest China are relatively stable. There are also ups and downs in ex-factory prices, including gasoline prices in Shandong, North China and East China by 80-150 yuan per ton. Gasoline prices in central China, northeast and southwest regions have been reduced by 30-150 yuan per ton. This week, the main factors of the gasoline market: 1, international crude oil: international oil prices rose first and then fell. During the week, OPEC and the International Energy Agency successively raised this year's crude oil demand growth forecast to boost oil prices, but as the growth of US commercial crude oil data was much higher than expected, international oil prices fell. 2. Chinese market: from the supply side, the negative benefits of refineries are gradually exhausted, and the demand side has not improved; but the monthly completion of the tasks of the main units can be coupled with the stimulation of the rising stage of crude oil, refinery quotations have risen during the week, but the increase is limited.
III. Gasoline price index
According to Tudor data, as of November 16, China's gasoline price index was 8711.49, down 20.72 from last week, down 0.24% from last week, down 0.24% from 9073.33, down 27.64 from last week, or 0.30%. The 9-month and 9-month gasoline indices were both downgraded, and the price difference between the 9-month gasoline index and the 9-month gasoline index was 361.84.

V. Future forecast
From the perspective of international crude oil, there is no bright spot in the market at present. OPEC+ on the supply side has not made any further statement on the measures to reduce production, but its position on reducing production is firm, focusing on the OPEC+ meeting on November 26th. Less attention has been paid to geopolitical events, and most markets believe that the Fed's rate-raising cycle may be over. International oil prices are expected to remain under pressure next week. From the demand point of view, terminal demand continues to be weak, the market is more bearish, hoarding operations are less rigid demand-based procurement, operators also maintain a cautious attitude when entering the market. From the supply side, there are no new refineries for inspection and repair next week, and the negative reduction is basically in place. Refinery operating rate is expected to remain relatively stable next week, with little change. In addition, a new round of refined oil price adjustment is about to begin next week, and is now showing a wide reduction in expectations, negative guidance. Taken together, it is expected that China's gasoline market may continue to decline in the short term.
