Boosted by the good news of the new crown vaccine, the market placed expectations on a rebound in fuel demand. At the same time, the news of oil well attack in Iraq kept the crude oil price on a strong trend. As of December 15, WTI crude oil price settlement price was 47.62 USD / barrel, 6.89% higher than the price at the beginning of December. In December, cyclohexanone delivery was significantly hindered, and the crude oil prices of cyclohexanone rose in a strong way. The operating rate of caprolactam is still not high, while the operating rate of PA6 is still acceptable, and the supply of caprolactam is tight. Last week, Sinopec’s high-end caprolactam price was raised by 300 yuan / ton to 11500 yuan / ton. At present, PA6 is at a high level. Downstream factories are against high price goods. Replenishment operation is cautious and tends to operate stably.
The price of nylon filament is generally raised. On the one hand, textile orders have picked up. The fundamental reason is that the price of raw materials is firm, the cost remains high, and there is a possibility of strong operation in the short term. The price increases range from 300 to 800 yuan / ton. Considering the tight supply of caprolactam and the price of PA6 does not decrease, the price of nylon has been shifted upward. It is worth noting that near the end of the year, the demand of textile enterprises to replenish the stock market has some support. Under the premise of stabilizing the raw material end, nylon market is easy to rise but difficult to fall.
Business agency analysts believe that crude oil prices remain high, caprolactam operating rate is not high, tight supply. Raw material prices remain firm, and trade consumption is expected to pick up, and nylon is expected to run in a stable and strong position.
