III. Market Outlook
International crude oil futures closed slightly lower, offering limited support to domestic industrial aromatic solvents. Yesterday’s gasoline production-sales balance was not maintained, with downstream customers purchasing based on immediate needs. Bearish sentiment prevails in the market, and plant offers are expected to remain steady but weak today.
