The mainstream spot quotation range for toluene in the East China market is 7,300-7,350 RMB/ton, up 70 RMB/ton from the previous trading day. In the preceding trading session, prices of toluene and mixed xylene moved upward; although crude oil closed lower overnight, the strengthened night session for aromatics, coupled with tight domestic spot supply, continued to provide market support. Downstream players maintained necessity-driven restocking, while market transactions remained subdued. In the short term, prices lack momentum for sustained upside and are expected to maintain range-bound consolidation.
