Spot sales are essentially negligible. Chempricehub analysis of BPA, bullish-bearish score: 1.5. Pingmei Shenma's 130,000-ton/year BPA unit is shut down, with an undetermined restart time. Spot sales are essentially negligible, leading to a significant supply shortage. It is expected that spot prices will rise in the short term due to supply-demand imbalance, benefiting market sentiment. Epoxy resin, bullish-bearish score: 1. The reduction in supply of BPA, a key raw material for epoxy resin, has increased cost pressure, potentially driving up spot prices for epoxy resin. Positive factors are limited by the elasticity of downstream demand, with a moderate impact.
