The spot market saw varying degrees of decline last week. Toward the end of the year, the market maintenance is reduced and the supply side is relatively abundant. On the demand side, it is now in the traditional off-season of demand. In addition, most of the downstream factories have little capacity to accommodate due to green power and production limitations. They mainly fulfill the demand. They are usually eager to enter the market. The trading atmosphere in the market is slightly light, and the contradiction between supply and demand in the market is prominent. Ex-factory prices of petrochemical companies continued to be cut, market sentiment was weak, market supply cost support was weak and futures market continued to fall. Traders were pessimistic and followed the market trend, resulting in prices falling across the board.

At present, downstream factories are greatly affected by environmental protection, resulting in a sharp decline in the start rate and a significant drop in demand. However, the market supply is relatively sufficient, and the contradiction between supply and demand is prominent. In addition, by the end of 2020, manufacturers have a weak mindset and need to organize their warehouses. However, on December 31, the futures market rebounded and rose overall, giving some support to the market. It is expected that China's private equity market will be horizontally consolidated in the near term.
