The final day of the week saw a better outcome than the previous trading session with PPBC and LLDPE achieving 100% concluded deals and homo-PP at 9.7% higher than yesterday. This was a direct influence from the rebound note on the Dalian Commodity Exchange earlier this morning.
The bulk of auctioned bids came from need-based purchases, mirroring the trend seen yesterday as many customers remained hesitant to accumulate excess stock ahead of the upcoming Labour Day holiday next Wednesday.
Anticipation loomed regarding the pre-holiday purchasing behaviour, with a conservative stance seeming to be adopted by most and expectations leaning toward essential purchases taking precedence.
