Chempricehub Analysis:
Acetone, Bull-Bear Score: 1.5
Yangzhou Shiyou's phenol-ketone plant is operating normally, with prices raised by 200 yuan/ton to 4,850 yuan/ton. Low inventory levels indicate tight spot supply and steady demand. This directly benefits acetone spot prices, as the price increase reflects tight market supply and demand, potentially driving a short-term upward trend.
MIBK, Bull-Bear Score: 0.5
As a downstream derivative of acetone, the rise in acetone prices may increase the production costs of MIBK, indirectly supporting its spot prices. However, the article does not directly address changes in MIBK supply and demand, so the impact is relatively moderate, with limited positive effects.
