Acetone, Bull-Bear Score: -1.5
The acetone price dropped significantly by 600 yuan to 8,100 yuan/ton, indicating that companies are actively lowering prices to boost sales, reflecting ample market supply or weak demand. Despite low inventory, the price decline poses a significant bearish impact on the spot market and may trigger short-term downward pressure on prices.

MIBK, Bull-Bear Score: 0.5
As a downstream product of acetone, the decline in acetone raw material prices may reduce its production costs, providing a slight benefit to producers. However, the article does not directly mention changes in MIBK supply and demand, making the impact neutral to slightly positive. Attention should be paid to whether downstream demand improves simultaneously.
