Paraxylene:Asia

摘要

The Asian paraxylene market rose $3/mt day on day to be assessed at $1,448/mt FOB Korea and $1,472/mt CFR Taiwan/China Friday, as short covering activities continued amid firmer crude oil futures. The Asian PX market shed $15.50/mt week on week. November ICE Brent was assessed at $109.21/barrel at 4:30 pm Singapore time (0830 GMT) Friday, up $0.06/b from Thursday and up $0.31/b week on week. Trading activities were scarce throughout the week as Chinese market players were away for a holiday since Tuesday.
