PTA processing is at a relatively low level, and plant maintenance is increasing. At present, PTA plant starts to drop below 80%, and the supply side will continue to shrink in April. In terms of demand, the recent trading performance of polyester market was flat, but the start-up of polyester factories and terminal looms remained high, with a high starting load of more than 91% and a good demand for raw materials. PTA social inventory fell for the fifth consecutive week, with inventory falling below 4 million tons for the first time since February. As of April 2, PTA social inventory was 3.9762 million tons, decreased by 64100 tons compared with March 26, but increased by 746200 tons compared with the same period in 2020.

Analysts believe that the improvement of PTA supply and demand in the short term will support the market, but the international oil price is facing greater pressure in the near future, and the terminal is cautious about polyester purchasing sentiment, forming a constraint on PTA price, and it is expected that the short-term price will run with strong shock.
