In the future, it is predicted that the coal price is stable in the near future, and the cost support is temporarily stable. At present, the supply side of the Chinese market fluctuates frequently, and some devices in the market in the main producing areas are stopped for maintenance. Methanol plants such as Rongxin Phase I, Inner Mongolia Guhe Baitai, Ningxia Qinghua and other methanol plants have been stopped one after another, some production enterprises have no inventory pressure for the time being, enterprises sell more at a higher price, and some transactions are OK, while the early parking devices may be restored in the near future. To a certain extent, it affects the good supply brought about by plant maintenance, coupled with the recent sharp drop in futures market, the mentality of the operators in the market is affected, the performance of the Chinese market atmosphere is poor, and from the point of view of demand, the demand in the downstream market increases slowly. some of the devices in the field are expected to be stored and started up, but the overall demand is not as expected. At present, the inventory of raw materials in some factories downstream is on the high side, and the overall rigid demand is mainly maintained. In the later stage, we also need to pay attention to the start-up of downstream factories and the change of load. At present, the support on the cost side is temporarily stable, the demand side has no obvious volume for the time being, the supply side has fluctuated recently, the mentality of the operators in the market is different, and the mood of cautious wait-and-see is strong, and it is expected that the short-term methanol market price may be weak. In the later stage, we need to pay close attention to the macro policy and the prices of crude oil and coal.
