PriceSeek Analysis of Toluene, Bull-Bear Score: -1
The spot price has decreased by 20 yuan/ton to 5400-5450 yuan/ton, indicating ample market supply or weak demand. Firm refinery quotations provide some support, but downstream rigid demand procurement and subdued negotiation sentiment suggest insufficient demand, leading to downward pressure on spot prices. Overall, this constitutes a generally bearish impact on toluene spot prices.
