1. Anthracene Oil Index Analysis
According to Tuduo data, the anthracene oil price index on September 18 was 4,205.21, which remained stable compared with the previous working day.
The market price of anthracene oil fell sharply before the holiday. Today, the anthracene oil markets in various regions of China were smoothly organized, but the atmosphere on the first day after the holiday was empty. At present, the downturn in the anthracene oil market in Hebei is difficult to alleviate. Deep processing companies have started at a low level. It is difficult for downstream carbon black manufacturers to sell. The pressure on anthracene oil is strong, and it is difficult to complete new orders. The anthracene oil markets in Shanxi and Shandong are operating weakly, and new orders have not been negotiated yet. The price of new orders in the carbon black market has dropped in a negative attitude, and buyers and sellers are mainly waiting and negotiating.

3. market outlook
The coal tar market, a raw material for anthracene oil, is being consolidated at a high level, and the cost side supports market offers. However, negotiations on new orders in the carbon black market are weak, making it difficult to change the attitude towards suppressing the anthracene oil market. In addition, the low price of ethylene tar has affected the downstream receiving mentality. Overall, under the negative demand side, the anthracene oil market has not been easy to hold prices and remains in a weak consolidation state.
