Chempricehub's analysis of BPA, with a long-short score: +1
Wanhua Chemical's BPA quotation has been raised by 100 yuan to 8,000 yuan/ton, indicating suppliers' optimism about market prospects, possibly due to tight spot supply or increased downstream demand. Combined with the stable supporting demand from the downstream 600,000-ton/year PC plant, this price adjustment will directly drive up spot prices, benefiting market bullish sentiment. The score is +1 (moderately positive), as the price adjustment is moderate and does not involve extreme supply-demand changes.
