PVC analysts from toodudu believe that last week’s PVC spot market trading was average. Upstream calcium carbide is temporarily stabilized and sorted, with average support. Downstream real estate enterprises have poor demand, and the market has weak demand for PVC spot goods. In addition, the downward trend of PVC futures on Friday has dampened confidence in the spot market. It is expected that the PVC market will be weak in the short term and closely monitor changes in the news.
