Spot Market 1. Supply side: Upstream factories have seen a slight recovery, and traders have raised prices slightly when selling goods. 2. On the demand side: a strong atmosphere of caution among downstream parties. Futures Market: The main contract for Dalian futures, 1505, closed at 5,645 yuan, up 125 yuan or 2.26%. On the Bohai Exchange, the spot price of PVC in Shandong closed at 5,600 yuan, up 100 yuan or 1.82%. Brief analysis of future market trends: Today, the domestic PVC market showed a slight recovery; futures prices opened high and continued to rise, with improved trading activity. On the spot market side, due to the price increases at factories in the northwest, traders face higher costs for purchasing goods, which drives up prices. Demand from downstream sectors remains moderate, and there is no significant increase in transactions. It is expected that PVC prices will remain stable with slight adjustments in the short term.
