On Monday (January 5th), the Asian butadiene market closed up by $10/ton: FOB Korea was quoted at $935-943/ton, and CFR China at $970-978/ton. PriceSeek's analysis of butadiene, with a bullish-bearish score of +1.5: Spot prices of butadiene in the Asian market rose by $10/ton (FOB Korea $935-943/ton, CFR China $970-978/ton), indicating tight supply or strengthening demand, directly driving up spot costs. This is favorable for butadiene rubber futures prices, as butadiene is a key raw material, and rising costs will support futures upward movement. Combined with butadiene rubber futures data (e.g., contract 2602 closing at 11,830 yuan/ton, up 170 yuan; contract 2603 closing at 11,855 yuan/ton, up 175 yuan), changes in open interest show active market participation and strengthening bullish sentiment, with futures prices expected to continue rising. The score of +1.5 reflects a relatively strong positive impact, though the increase is moderate and not yet at a significant level.
