The OPEC+ conference became the focus of the market. The United States said Saudi Arabia and Russia will slash crude oil production. Saudi Arabia called for an emergency meeting of OPEC+. The market renewed the hope of joint production cuts. The international crude oil market staged a wave of inflation before Qingming Festival. However, with the delay of the meeting, traders still had doubts about the prospect of production reduction. After the follow up of ethylene glycol related products, the fundamentals are weak and support is insufficient, and the market turnover is down.

Market performance:

From the above table, we can see that ethylene glycol follows the trend of upstream crude oil and naphtha as "V" trend. Ethylene slowly follows a downward trend. Downstream polyester products have been depressed for a long time, and prices have risen sharply. Take polyester filament as an example. Due to the downturn of the polyester industry chain, it will be difficult to stimulate the steady delivery of goods from 2020 to April, and raw materials inventory and cost inventories are high. However, the release of crude oil before Qingming Festival was a good signal, which once stimulated the downstream to pick up the goods, and the market was hot. The stock of polyester filament decreased from 35 days in the early days to about 27-28 days, and the stock of short fibers dropped from 10-11 days to 8-9 days. After the festival, the market information was uncertain, accompanied by the withdrawal of funds, and the downstream production and sales declined rapidly.

Return to reality:

Since 2020, the profits of ethylene glycol enterprises have been squeezed. Coal enterprises have already suffered serious losses. After a quarter of a year, they began to reduce their losses and stop repair and avoid risks. Up to now, 68.61% of the oil production started, 42.85% of the coal started up, and the supply volume decreased significantly after entering April, but the port stock has been divided by the storehouse stage. At this point, downstream polyester production enterprises because of double high inhibition, load up and down in 78.29%, improve power shortage. When the market is weak, ethylene glycol rises difficultly, and the fundamentals have been exhausted by time. It is also hard to fall.
