In the future, it is predicted that the coal price is running strongly in the near future, the cost is well supported, and the Chinese market starts to maintain a high level, but there is no pressure on the inventory of production enterprises for the time being, some enterprises have inventory operation before the festival, and the inventory of production enterprises has been reduced during the cycle. at present, inventory is still running at a low level, and there is some support for spot prices. Boyuan, Yantai Wanhua, Shanghai Huayi and other devices have resumed production one after another. Ningxia Heming, Shenglong Chemical and other plans to restart start-up this week, with a small increase in supply expectations. On the demand side, with the rise in the price of methanol in the earlier period, the increase in downstream products is limited, and the overall profit performance is poor. The overall start-up of the downstream of the terminal continues to improve slowly, the early maintenance plant resumes one after another, Zhejiang Xingxing olefin plant restart drives the start-up of the olefin industry to a high level, and the external production of methanol is expected to increase. However, the enterprise inventory in some downstream areas is still high. At present, the downstream pre-festival appropriateness rigid demand replenishment, in the later stage, we need to pay attention to the downstream device load changes and downstream profit repair. At present, the cost is temporarily stable, both the supply side and the demand side are expected to increase, the fluctuation of the futures market affects the market trend, the market operators' wait-and-see mood still exists, and it is expected that the methanol market price or interval will be sorted out in the short term. in the later stage, we need to pay close attention to the macro policy, crude oil and coal prices and the operation of the plant in the field.
