When will PE price bottom out under economic downward pressure?

Introduction: the cumulative growth of industrial value-added data above Designated Size published by the National Bureau of statistics has continued to decline year-on-year. Through the analysis of industry by industry, we can finally find out the impact of trade war on Global trade and on China’s import and export trade from the continuous decline of China’s industrial export delivery value growth. The export of plastic products, especially polyethylene polypropylene, has intensified The industry is deeply affected, and the price bottom is still on the way.

 

I. the added value of industries above Designated Size continues to decline

 

The latest October data released by the International Bureau of statistics shows that the downward pressure on the economy is still high. In October 2019, the added value of industries above designated size increased by 4.7% year-on-year (the growth rate of the following added value is the actual growth rate after deducting the price factor), 1.1 percentage points lower than that in September. From a month on month basis, in October, the added value of industries above designated size increased by 0.17% over the previous month. From January to October, the added value of industries above designated size increased by 5.6% year on year.

 

As shown in the figure, in terms of the accumulated value-added of industries above Designated Size, the trend of continuous decline in recent two years shows that the economic downturn continues. From a year-on-year perspective, the added value of industries above Designated Size in August was 4.4%, falling below the 4% level for the first time, a new low in 17 years, and 5.8% in September. The economic downturn seemed to be suspended, and another 5% in October reached 4.7%. The downward pressure on the economy continued to increase. The U.S. economy has been outstanding. For three consecutive months, the manufacturing PMI of ISM was below the boom and bust line of 50. The initial value of quarterly GDP fell and consumption fell, making the global economic growth slowdown likely to enter into “resonance”, trade war and other uncertain factors, increasing downward pressure.

 

II. The industrial added value of raw material end and terminal is not optimistic

 

Benzalkonium chloride

In October, the value-added of chemical raw materials and chemical manufacturing industry increased by 3% year-on-year, while that of rubber and plastic products industry increased by 3.9% year-on-year. Obviously, the growth rate of downstream products industry is faster than that of upstream raw materials. The difference between the growth rate of the two industries narrowed for three consecutive months, because the decline rate of products industry in October is faster than that of raw materials. In October last year, the price of PE, PP and other plastic raw materials began to decline. The growth rate of rubber and plastic products was significantly lower than that of raw materials. Generally speaking, with the decline of the price of raw materials, the cost of end products decreased. From the perspective of the growth of plastic products, the current situation of the product industry is slightly better than last year.

 

From January to October, the added value of chemical raw materials and chemical manufacturing industry increased by 4% year-on-year, while that of rubber and plastic products industry increased by 4.8% year-on-year, showing a continuous downward trend in the year. The growth difference between the two is the same as that of last month, which is larger than that of previous months, indicating that the decline in the price of raw materials supports the growth of terminal output. The added value of plastic products industry is slightly higher than that of the same period of last year, both year-on-year and cumulative year-on-year, indicating that the downstream industry of plastic products is better than that of plastic raw materials.

 

III. under the trade war, the growth rate of export delivery value continued to accelerate and decline

 

Export delivery value: refers to the value of products exported by industrial enterprises (including those sold to Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan) by themselves or entrusted to foreign trade departments, as well as the value of products produced by foreign investors such as samples, processing, assembling and compensation trade. The value of export delivery is different from that of export. Export is essentially a demand side indicator, which measures the total value of the products exported in the current period, that is, it is not necessarily the current production; while the value of industrial export delivery is the value of the products produced in the current period, delivered to the foreign trade operation department or self export, so it can more represent the real prosperity of the supply side in the current period.

 

Sodium Molybdate

The trade war cannot be ended. Global trade is greatly affected, which not only affects the U.S. economic downturn, but also more affects China’s economic growth. In terms of industrial export delivery value, the logistics of chemical raw materials and chemical products industry has declined year-on-year or cumulative year-on-year, and the more serious is that both the year-on-year and cumulative ratio are negative, and the expansion trend is intensified. The rubber and plastic products industry is slightly better, showing a negative value year on year, and the cumulative ratio is close to a negative value. The data shows that it affects the export of China’s chemical industry and rubber and plastic industry. The more uncertain the trade situation is, the more cautious enterprises are expecting to reduce current production. After all, the plastic industry still has a certain share of exports to the United States. Instead, PE and other raw materials are imported into the United States more.

 

To sum up, the macro data reflects that the export of rubber and plastic products industry continues to be depressed, and the prices of PE and PP plastic raw materials are still not optimistic. In the case of macro downturn, it is better to follow the trend. In terms of the ex factory price index of synthetic materials and plastic products, they continued to decline year on year, and there is no bottom signal yet.

Thailand seeks to increase rubber exports when export restrictions expire

Thailand encourages the export of natural rubber to boost farmers’ incomes, according to Thailand’s commerce minister on Wednesday, after ending a four-month export ban a few weeks ago.

 

After negotiation, Thailand will export 260480 tons of rubber to two private buyers in mainland China and Hong Kong, said jurin laksanawisit, Thailand’s commerce minister. Including 160480 tons of 20 standard glue (str20) and 100000 tons of tobacco film (RSS3). The value of the above agreements is not less than THB 13 billion (US $428 million).

 

Potassium monopersulfate

The minister also said that Thailand had recently exported 100000 tons of rubber worth 7.5 billion baht to India. He would also visit Turkey and Germany to sign more export agreements.

 

As part of a plan by the world’s major rubber exporters to boost international rubber prices, Thailand cut its natural rubber exports in the four months from the end of May to the end of September this year.

 

The trilateral rubber Committee (ITRC), composed of Thailand, Malaysia and Indonesia, agreed in March to jointly cut the export volume of Tianjiao by about 240000 tons.

 

ITRC said last week that the three countries eventually cut exports by 441648 tons.

 

Azodicarbonamide (AC foaming Agent)

According to ITRC report, in the first half of 2019, the total rubber exports of Thailand, Malaysia and Indonesia decreased by 10.6% compared with the same period last year, which was partly due to the decrease in supply.

 

A fungal disease called Pestalotiopsis broke out in rubber plantations in Thailand, Indonesia and Malaysia during the peak cutting season in October December, causing leaves to turn yellow.

 

The fungus first broke out in Indonesia and Malaysia, and then spread to Thailand. It has a serious impact on the rubber trees in the main rubber producing countries.

 

Under the threat of the disease, rubber production in the affected areas may be halved. At present, more than 450000 hectares of rubber plantations in the three countries are reported to have found the disease.

At present, propylene inventory is low, supply is more tight, downstream purchasing sentiment is good, and crude oil and PP market is still ideal, some prices are still rising. The downstream epoxy resin is mainly weak and downward, and the trading atmosphere is stalemate.

 

Sodium Molybdate

Industry: according to the price monitoring of the business agency, there are 10 kinds of commodities in the list of rise and fall of bulk commodity prices on November 13, 2019, among which the commodity range with an increase of more than 5% is mainly arranged, and the fluctuation is still possible. Chloroform (3.81%). There are 18 kinds of commodities falling on a month on month basis, and one kind of commodities falling by more than 5%, accounting for 1.2% of the number of commodities monitored in this sector; the top three products falling are epichlorohydrin (- 11.45%), urea (- 3.23%) and lithium carbonate (- 2.70%). The 13 day average rose or fell 0.06%.

 

3. Future forecast:

 

According to epichlorohydrin analysts of the business club, the cost support brought by upstream raw materials has not had much impact in recent months, so the supply and demand side is still the key to increase or decrease the price of epichlorohydrin. Due to the expected restart of some units and release of new production capacity in the later stage, downstream operators are more cautious in participating in the process, and the trading in epichlorohydrin market is stagnant. The weak operation of downstream epoxy resin has also become a major constraint on the operation road of epichlorohydrin. It is expected that in the short term, the weak operation of epichlorohydrin market will be dominated, and more attention should be paid to the information guidance of upstream and downstream mainstream manufacturers.

From the beginning of November to now, the price focus of organosilicon DMC market is still down

I. price trend

 

According to the monitoring data of the business association, as of November 13, the average market price of organosilicon DMC in several major areas monitored by the data is 16766 yuan / ton, down about 70 yuan / ton, or 0.4% compared with the beginning of the month (November 1).

 

Benzalkonium chloride

II. Market analysis

 

Products: since the beginning of November, the silicone market is unpredictable, and the market is under various pressures. The whole market is dominated by weak consolidation. Most of the cargo holders fall into losses, high stocks of traders and distributors. Downstream purchases are made on demand, and the whole silicone industry chain market is shrouded in a cautious attitude of stock preparation. Most of the small and medium-sized manufacturers have fierce competition. The decline of orders directly affects the profit and loss of small factories, and also restricts their demand for upstream raw materials to a certain extent. On November 5 last week, the market of organosilicon DMC was slightly increased. On November 5, the data monitoring showed that the average price of the market was around 16900 yuan / ton, which was slightly increased by 70 yuan / ton compared with that on November 1. After the price was maintained for a week, from the beginning of this week (November 11), most of the mainstream manufacturers in the market successively appeared the phenomenon that the price center of quotation for organosilicon DMC products again gave way, and the price dropped Almost set a new low in the year. Up to now, most of the production enterprises of organosilicon DMC have quoted profits in the market. The price reference is 16-17.5 yuan / kg. The low price has not driven the upsurge of hoarding in the downstream market. At present, the transaction is still in a slow state.

 

Sodium Molybdate

Industry chain: Recently, the prices of silicone oil and 107 rubber products in the downstream of organosilicon DMC have declined slightly. The overall market is weak and the market is stable for the time being. The downstream enterprises basically buy and use as needed, and maintain on-demand procurement. At present, the average reference price of 107 rubber in East China, South China and North China continues to stabilize at 17-18.5 yuan / kg (cash transfer). The actual negotiated transaction price or small yield Profit.

 

III. future forecast

 

Analysts of the business club believe that: with the coming of winter, the market of organosilicon DMC has basically entered the off-season, and the trading atmosphere of the whole market is not active. In the short term, the overall price of organosilicon DMC may not be effectively back to the high point.

The price of rare earth in China’s domestic market rose and fell on November 12

On November 11, the rare earth index was 335, the same as yesterday, 66.50% lower than the cycle’s highest point of 1000 (2011-12-06), and 23.62% higher than the lowest point of 271 on September 13, 2015. (Note: cycle refers to 2011-12-01 to now).

 

Potassium monopersulfate

The average price of neodymium, dysprosium and praseodymium in rare earth metals decreased by 3000 yuan / ton to 360500 yuan / ton, 2.05 million yuan / ton and 650000 yuan / ton respectively. The average price of praseodymium neodymium oxide in rare earth oxide decreased by 3000 yuan / ton to 283500 yuan / ton; the price of dysprosium oxide increased by 10000 yuan / ton to 1.54 million yuan / ton; the average price of praseodymium oxide was 345000 yuan / ton; the average price of neodymium oxide decreased by 3000 yuan / ton to 285500 yuan / ton. The price of praseodymium neodymium alloy in rare earth alloy decreased by 3000 yuan / ton to 360500 yuan / ton; the average price of dysprosium ferroalloy increased by 10000 yuan / ton to 1.54 million yuan / ton.

 

In recent years, the price trend of rare earth in the market is up and down. The domestic rare earth market is generally trading. Recently, the legitimate price in the market has increased, but the price of terbium series metals and oxides has continued to decline, while the price of heavy rare earth has not improved much. In the near future, the inquiry list of praseodymium neodymium oxide and neodymium oxide has declined, and the price of light rare earth oxide has declined slightly. In the near future, the light rare earth merchants in the field are not in good condition, and the recent trading situation in the field is general. The supply of rare earth in China is normal. The price fluctuation of rare earth market is related to the environmental protection supervision in the whole country. The production of rare earth is special, especially the radiation hazards of some products make the environmental protection supervision more strict. Metal enterprises and downstream magnetic material enterprises are weak in purchasing after and before the festival due to the surplus of purchasing before the festival. In addition, the price of rare earth has declined compared with the previous period, and the wait-and-see mood is strong. Under the strict environmental protection inspection, rare earth separation enterprises in many provinces have stopped production, resulting in the general market supply of rare earth oxides, especially some mainstream rare earth oxides, which are in normal supply, and the market price trend of rare earth is declining. In the near future There is a strong wait-and-see mood among large enterprise groups in the market. The rare earth market is generally trading, and the trading volume is at a low level.

Ministry of industry and information technology (MIIT) reported on November 8 that the Ministry of industry and information technology (MIIT) and the Ministry of natural resources (MRR) issued the notice on the total amount control indicators of rare earth mining, smelting separation and tungsten mining in 2019. The total amount control indicators of rare earth mining and smelting separation in 2019 were 132000 tons and 127000 tons respectively. The total control index of tungsten concentrate (65% of tungsten trioxide) mining in China is 105000 tons, including 78150 tons of main mining index and 26850 tons of comprehensive utilization index. In addition, the national environmental protection department has made unremitting efforts in strict inspection, which has a great impact on the rare earth industry. The rare earth industry has a relatively low start-up situation, and the market situation is cold, which has brought some good support to the rare earth market. The national development and Reform Commission and the relevant departments have taken effective measures to rectify and standardize the industry, innovated and improved the relevant management mechanism, accelerated the construction of an industry development pattern with reasonable industrial structure, advanced science and technology level, effective resource protection and orderly production and operation, and effectively played the special value of rare earth as a strategic resource. The supply of raw ore resources in the upstream of the rare earth industry has shrunk Insiders are waiting for good news from the policy and the reserve.

 

Rare earth analysts of the business society expect that in the near future, the intensity of strict environmental inspection in China will not be reduced. In addition, the order of rare earth industry will be rectified in China, and the supply of rare earth industry in Jiangxi will maintain a low level. However, the downstream demand for rare earth will not improve in the near future, and the rare earth market is expected to maintain a low level.

Indonesia’s exports resumed, nickel price goes down 2.26%

Nickel spot trend

According to the nickel price monitoring of the business association, the spot price of nickel on November 12 was 130666.67 yuan / ton, a slight decrease of 2.26% compared with 133683.33 yuan / ton on the previous trading day, a rise of 45.98% compared with the beginning of the year, and a year-on-year increase of 30.10%. Nickel prices are now weak.

 

EDTA

Indonesia resume export

 

Indonesia announced on October 28 that it would suspend nickel ore export for illegal investigation. Indonesia said on October 11 that it had approved nine enterprises to restart nickel ore export. Nickel supply eased and nickel prices fell.

 

Nickel inventory rise in the previous period

 

Exchange data released on Friday showed nickel inventories in the previous period rose to 30831 tons, the highest level since the week ended June 1, 2018, easing concerns about tight supply. LME inventory destocking slowed down, with a weekly drop of 234 tons.

 

Downstream stainless steel weak drop dominated

 

Melamine

In the near future, the price of downstream stainless steel is mainly stable and weak, with a price of 14171.43 yuan / ton. The high inventory of stainless steel and the expectation of long-term project production, coupled with weak demand, make it difficult for the price of stainless steel to rise.

 

To sum up, Liu Meili, nickel analyst of the business association, believes that the supply will ease in the short term, and the weakness of downstream stainless steel will fall, making nickel prices drop sharply. In the long run, Indonesia’s mining ban will still take effect next year, and the Philippines will enter the rainy season, so the supply will be affected, and nickel price is expected to remain high and weak.

PVC price maybe will move down

PVC industry is entering the boom and downturn cycle. In the short term, it is expected that the supply will increase and demand will decrease. In this context, PVC will usher in a short opportunity.

 

The industry enters the boom and downturn cycle

 

The upward cycle of PVC industry since 2016 is due to the resonance of supply side capacity cycle and demand side real estate cycle. At the end of 2015, PVC production enterprises experienced a clearance of backward production capacity, which maintained a negative growth from 2014 to 2016. At the same time, the real estate industry, as the largest downstream of PVC, has entered a new boom cycle since 2016, driving industrial products into the active replenishment stage. In this context, PVC price focus has been rising since 2016, industry profits have been improving, and out of the bull market.

 

Benzalkonium chloride

By 2019, new production capacity began to emerge under the current situation of high profits in the industry, and demand side real estate entered a downward cycle. Therefore, judging from the whole industry cycle, we believe that PVC is now entering the downward cycle of industry boom, and the price center of gravity is likely to move down.

 

Short term seasonal supply increase and demand decrease

 

PVC upstream production enterprises have two periods of centralized maintenance in one year: Spring maintenance and autumn maintenance. Currently, the upstream is in the stage of autumn maintenance coming to an end. At present, the comprehensive operating rate of PVC upstream is about 72%, lower than 80% of the same period last year. It is expected that the operating rate will gradually rise with the completion of maintenance in the later stage. In addition, in the fourth quarter, new production capacity such as Zhongtai and Julong chemical will release production, so the overall aftermarket supply end pressure will increase month on month. From the demand side, at present, after entering the “golden nine silver ten” off-season, after entering the winter in the northern region, the downstream operating rate will appear obvious seasonal weakness. In terms of both supply and demand, we believe that PVC may have a turning point of accumulation in December.

 

There is a certain margin of safety in shorting

 

In terms of profit, due to the outsourcing of raw calcium carbide in North China, the production cost is much higher than that of the northwest integrated device, which is a high cost device in PVC production enterprises. At present, the profit of PVC single product in North China is 500 yuan / ton, and the comprehensive profit of chlor alkali is more than 1500 yuan / ton, so there is a big space for industry profit compression. In terms of basis, since January contract is a traditional seasonal off-season contract, the contract will maintain the status of discount spot over the years. Recently, with the rebound of futures, the basis narrowed to about 150 yuan / ton, which was at a low level in the same period of the previous year. Therefore, from the perspective of profit and basis, there is a margin of safety for short PVC.

 

Sodium Molybdate

At present, no matter pvc2001 contract or 2005 contract, they have been consolidated and oscillated for nearly three years. In the short term, the 250, 120, 60, 40, 20 and 10 day averages are all downward, facing a choice of direction. In terms of price support and pressure, pvc2001 contract is supported at 6200 yuan / ton line below and 6600 yuan / ton line above; pvc2005 contract is supported at 6000 yuan / ton line below and 6500 yuan / ton line above. In addition, from the analysis of the correlation between varieties, the related varieties closely related to the real estate industry, such as screw steel, power coal, coke, etc., are showing signs of breaking. If resonance occurs, the space under PVC will open.

 

To sum up, we think PVC is suitable for short. It is suggested to arrange the 2001 contract short order in the 6400-6600 yuan / ton range and the 2005 contract short order in the 6300-6500 yuan / ton range.

On November 11, the market price of hydrofluoric acid in China fell slightly

On November 10, the commodity index of hydrofluoric acid was 87.48, unchanged from yesterday, down 37.71% from 140.43 (2018-02-21), the highest point in the cycle, and up 63.24% from 53.59, the lowest point on November 30, 2016. (Note: cycle refers to 2011-09-01 to now).

 

According to statistics, the market price of hydrofluoric acid in China is slightly lower. Up to now, the market price of hydrofluoric acid in China is 9600 yuan / ton, and the operation rate of hydrofluoric acid in China is less than 60%. Enterprises report that the spot supply of hydrofluoric acid in the field is sufficient at present, and the goods in the hydrofluoric acid field can not be moved in the near future. Due to the lack of improvement in downstream demand, the prices of some hydrofluoric acid manufacturers are stuck, and the market price of hydrofluoric acid is slightly lower. At present, the mainstream of hydrofluoric acid negotiation in the south is about 9000-9500 yuan / ton, and the price of hydrofluoric acid in the north market is 9000-10000 yuan / ton. The domestic market price of hydrofluoric acid remains at a low level, the supply of spot goods is sufficient, but the demand is poor, and the market price of hydrofluoric acid remains at a low level.

The price of fluorite in the upstream market remains at a low level. As of the 11th day, the price of fluorite is 2861.11 yuan / ton. The fluctuation of upstream raw material price has limited support for the hydrofluoric acid market. The price of hydrofluoric acid market is slightly lower due to the low price of raw material fluorite. In the near future, the trading market of downstream refrigerants in the terminal market is general, and the domestic market price of refrigerant R22 remains low. From the perspective of market supply, the market price of refrigerant R22 continues to be weak, the manufacturer’s production device reduces the starting load, the market supply capacity has declined, and the inventory pressure has been slowed down. In terms of demand, the downstream air-conditioning manufacturers only reduced the demand without increasing, and the mainstream price of domestic large enterprises is 12000-13000 yuan / ton. The price trend of R134a market in China is at a low level, the unit operating rate of production enterprises remains at a low level, the market demand for refrigerants is reduced, and manufacturers mainly export their products. However, the transaction price in the market keeps falling, the merchants purchase on demand, the peak season ends, the downstream demand of the terminal only decreases but not increases, and the price trend of hydrofluoric acid market declines. However, the market price of hydrofluoric acid is slightly lower due to the lower transaction price and on-demand purchase. Recently, due to the normal supply of goods, the downstream demand is not improved, and the market price of hydrofluoric acid is slightly lower.

 

Generally speaking, the turnover in the refrigerant field is low, and the demand for upstream hydrofluoric acid market is limited, and the spot supply of hydrofluoric acid is sufficient. However, with the temperature falling, the supply of fluorite is reduced, and the cost is supported to some extent. Chen Ling, an analyst of the business society, thinks that the market price of hydrofluoric acid may fluctuate at a low level, and may rise in the long run.
