I. Key Focus Points
Crude Oil: US-Iran relations remain in a stalemate, sustaining market concerns over supply risks and driving international crude oil prices higher. The NYMEX WTI futures contract for November closed at $92.60/bbl, up $0.19/bbl (+0.21% from the previous session). The ICE Brent futures contract for November closed at $105.28/bbl, up $0.96/bbl (+0.92%). The INE Shanghai crude oil futures contract (November 2026 expiry) rose by 9.3 to 734.1 yuan/barrel during the day session but fell by 22.5 to 711.6 yuan/barrel in the night session.
Downstream Products: Prices of downstream high-boiling aromatic solvents have risen.
Core Logic: Crude oil futures closed higher, leading to increased prices for downstream high-boiling aromatic solvents. Consequently, there is an upward expectation for the industrial C10 mixed aromatics market.
