Future forecast: on the supply side: recently, affected by high temperature weather, devices such as Chongqing Cabelle and Sichuan Lutianhua in Southwest China have been stopped one after another, but the early maintenance devices such as Jiutai and Yulin Coal Chemical in Northwest China have returned and stabilized the products, and the market supply has not obviously shrunk. In addition, there are still plans to restart the devices in China, and the supply or storage is expected to continue to increase. In the later stage, we should also pay attention to the implementation of the plant restart and the impact of the power restriction policy in the southwest on the plant in the field. Demand: downstream olefin demand has recovered, extended 600000 tons of coal, Shenhua Xinjiang 680000 tons of olefin units are planned to restart in the near future, demand is expected to increase, but the traditional downstream continued weak performance in the off-season, the overall demand boost is still limited. At present, the support of coal prices on the cost side is temporarily stable, the supply side continues to increase, the demand side recovers slowly, the mindset of operators is still cautious, they hold a wait-and-see mood towards the future, and it is expected that the short-term methanol market price may be narrowly arranged. In the later stage, we also need to pay attention to crude oil, coal prices and the operation of the plant in the field.
