March 10th News: On March 10th, Dongying Fuhai Weilian Petrochemical reduced the ex-factory price of pure benzene (petroleum benzene) by 2,000 yuan, with the latest quotation at 10,003 yuan per ton. Chempricehub's analysis of pure benzene, with a long-short score of -2: The ex-factory price of pure benzene was lowered by 2,000 yuan to 10,003 yuan per ton, a significant decline, indicating an oversupply in the market or weak demand, which constitutes a major bearish factor for spot prices. Considering the recent performance of the pure benzene futures contracts on the Dalian Commodity Exchange (such as the 2604 contract closing at 8,155 yuan, up by 733 yuan), this bearish news may trigger expectations of a decline in futures prices, as spot prices serve as the basis for futures pricing, and market sentiment has turned pessimistic.
