ChemPriceHub Alert: Anticipated accumulation of diethylene glycol inventory is bearish.
Published on 2026-02-11

This week (February 10-16), Zhangjiagang is expected to receive 12,801 tons of diethylene glycol (DEG) by ship. Although the anticipated port arrivals have increased, with the Spring Festival holiday approaching, port shipments have relatively decreased, leading to an expected accumulation of inventory at the main ports in East China this week. PriceSeek's analysis of DEG gives a long-short score of -1. The article notes that Zhangjiagang is expected to receive 12,801 tons of DEG by ship this week, with an increase in anticipated port arrivals. However, the approaching Spring Festival holiday has resulted in reduced port shipments, leading to an expected accumulation of inventory at the main ports in East China. This indicates an increase in supply (rising port arrivals) coupled with a weakening demand (reduced shipments due to the holiday), creating an oversupply situation that exerts downward pressure on spot prices. The score of -1 (generally bearish) reflects the negative impact of the expected inventory accumulation on market sentiment, which may drive spot prices lower in the short term.
