On February 13th, the closing price of para-xylene (PX) in the U.S. market fell by $7 per ton, settling at $962–972 per ton FOB U.S. Gulf. Chempricehub's analysis of PX gave a bearish score of -1. The spot price of para-xylene (PX) in the U.S. declined by $7 per ton, closing at $962–972 per ton FOB U.S. Gulf, indicating ample supply or weak demand in the market, which exerted downward pressure on spot prices. Considering data from China's PX futures market, although the main contract on the Zhengzhou Commodity Exchange (e.g., the 2603 contract closed at 7,202 yuan per ton, up 30.00 yuan per ton) showed a short-term increase, the decline in U.S. spot prices may transmit pressure through the global trade chain, suggesting a risk of weakening future demand and exerting a downward influence on futures prices. The score of -1 indicates a generally bearish outlook, as the decline was relatively small (approximately 0.7%) and did not reach a significant level.
