The auction transaction is good, in September, some of the devices in the field or storage autumn inspection plan, the specific situation to be tracked, it is expected that the short-term methanol market supply growth space is limited. From the demand point of view: the construction of terminal downstream products is gradually resuming, and the market mentality is about to enter the peak demand season of Jinjiu Silver Ten. However, with the recent continuous rise in methanol prices, olefins are limited, resulting in a loss stage of downstream olefins or a certain impact on the start-up and storage of olefins. At present, the raw material inventory of some downstream enterprises is still on the high side, Tianjin Bohua plans to overhaul, and Ningxia Baofeng plans to put into production. Sierbang expects to resume the Chinese contract in September, the methanol production of olefin enterprises is still expected to increase, and the downstream demand is in a slowly increasing channel. In the later stage, we should pay attention to the commissioning of Baofeng Phase III MTO plant and the downstream profit repair. At present, the macro expectation is good, the cost change is limited, the performance of methanol fundamentals is OK, the overall positive factors of the market are dominant, and the short-term methanol market price is expected to rise in the short term. in the later stage, we need to pay close attention to the macro view, coal prices and the operation of the plant in the field.
