II. Summary of gasoline market
This week (20231201-20231207) the wholesale price of gasoline in China was mainly cut, with gasoline prices in North China, South China, Central China, East China and Southwest China reduced by 50-150 yuan per ton. Gasoline prices fluctuated slightly up and down in the northwest, while prices rose slightly in the northeast. Most of the ex-factory prices of georefining declined, including gasoline prices in Shandong, North China, Central China, East China and Southwest China, concentrated in 50-120 yuan per ton. Gasoline prices in the northwest and northeast regions are relatively stable. The main factors of the gasoline market this week are as follows: 1. The negative factors of the crude oil market have increased, and the situation of strong supply and weak demand is obvious. during the week, crude oil closed down for five consecutive working days, and WTI crude oil fell out of the $70 / barrel mark. 2. The overall performance on the demand side is tired, and the purchasing mentality is weak; on the supply side, the negative operation of the refinery still exists, especially the decline in the utilization rate of the main capacity; at the beginning of this week, the sales performance pressure of the main unit is relatively small, and the refinery inventory is relatively low. The price space is still there, and the decline is small. On the whole, the market wait-and-see atmosphere is strong, the trading atmosphere is light. 3. Under the influence of the rate of change of international crude oil, the retail price limit of refined oil was lowered during the week, realizing five consecutive declines.
III. Gasoline price index
According to Tudor data, as of December 7, China's gasoline price index was 8696.70, down 53.44 from last week, down 0.61% from 9033.02, down 61.31 from last week, or 0.67%. 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 336.31.

V. Future forecast
From the perspective of international crude oil, since the OPEC + meeting announced further production cuts, traders' pessimism about the future has not improved significantly, the supporting effect of production reduction measures on the bottom of oil prices has weakened, and oil prices have continued to fall. In addition, Saudi Arabia lacks confidence in the outlook for Asian demand, and US gasoline and distillate stocks continue to grow, reflecting in many ways the weakness of supply and demand in the crude oil market. However, crude oil prices fell to a relatively low level, OPEC + will not allow oil prices to do so, do not rule out the possibility of taking new measures to stabilize oil prices. From the perspective of the Chinese market, the weather is getting cooler, private travel is increasing, demand is relatively stable and fluctuating; supply-side refinery production reduction measures are still in the process of being implemented, but it will not stop the weak situation in the gasoline market. Overall, there is a lack of new positive factors in the gasoline market, and if there is no positive next week, the gasoline market is expected to maintain a slight decline.
