Future forecast: the recent raw material coal prices have weak support to the cost side, the macro mood is not good, and the market atmosphere has returned to calm after the festival. at present, there are equipment overhauling and restart in China. Inner Mongolia Yigao, Zhong'an United, Shaanxi Huangling overhauled as scheduled, but at the same time, the methanol plant in the early overhaul of Northwest Energy and extended China Coal gradually returned, and the overall supply in the field did not change significantly for the time being, from a demand point of view. The traditional downstream demand is general, but with the restart of the 300000-ton olefin plant in the west of Shandong Province, coupled with the extension of the 600000-ton olefin unit of China Coal, the short-term downstream demand may be improved. At present, the macro and cost support is limited, the marginal storage of methanol supply and demand is expected to improve, and the cautious sentiment of the operators in the market is still there. It is expected that the short-term methanol market price will be mainly arranged in a narrow range. In the later stage, we also need to pay attention to the crude oil, coal prices and the commissioning of the new plant.
