The DME market remained stable in the morning. Feedstock methanol rose sharply, sustaining stronger cost pressure. Constrained by weak demand, the DME market has not yet followed the upward price movement. Producers are closely watching downstream purchasing sentiment, while end-users continue to purchase only for essential needs. Chempricehub Information expects the DME market to run in a firm consolidation pattern in the near term.
