January 4th - It is reported that a TDI unit in Northwest China experienced abnormal fluctuations and requires temporary shutdown, expected to last about a week. Chempricehub's analysis of TDI, with a bullish-bearish score: +1.5. The article reports that abnormal fluctuations in a TDI unit in Northwest China necessitate a temporary one-week shutdown, leading to reduced TDI supply. The supply disruption is likely to drive up spot prices in the short term, as demand remains stable and inventories may decline. Concurrently, considering the TDI futures market, near-term contract prices may rise due to supply concerns, reflecting market expectations of a short-term supply gap. This event is a significant positive factor, but since the shutdown is only for a week and not a long-term halt, its impact is limited. Hence, the score is +1.5, positioned between a moderate positive and a major positive.
