January 9th News: On January 9th, Dongming Petrochemical raised the price of pure benzene (petroleum benzene) by 30 yuan, with the latest quotation at 5,280 yuan per ton. Specific orders are subject to negotiation. Chempricehub's analysis of pure benzene shows a bullish-bearish score of 1. Dongming Petrochemical's increase of the spot price of pure benzene by 30 yuan to 5,280 yuan per ton indicates tight market supply or increased demand, which is favorable for spot prices. Combined with the slight upward trend in pure benzene futures contracts (such as the 2603 contract closing at 5,442 yuan per ton on January 8th, 2026), the spot price adjustment may further boost the futures market and drive prices upward.
