I. Key Focus Areas

1. Monitor methanol feedstock price guidance
2. Track the operating rates of downstream board manufacturers
3. Observe inventory levels at production enterprises

Core Logic: Methanol feedstock prices have retreated, leading to lower costs. Formaldehyde supply remains ample, while mainstream downstream board manufacturers show average operating rates, providing limited demand support. Most other downstream users consume internally, meaning the demand side remains a critical factor.

IV. Market Outlook

Today, the formaldehyde market remained weakly stable in a stalemate. In the morning, prices in major production regions strengthened due to cost support. However, during the day, environmental controls frequently hindered downstream purchasing enthusiasm. Coupled with holders actively offering discounts to clear inventory, market negotiation sentiment shifted sharply downward. Multiple factories lowered prices under shipping pressure. Chempricehub forecasts that the formaldehyde market will continue to trade in weak oscillation in the short term.
