In the East China region, the mainstream spot quotation range for xylene is 7,350–7,400 CNY/ton, up 50 CNY/ton from the previous trading day. Toluene and xylene prices rose yesterday, supported by higher crude oil settlements and a firm aromatics night session, while weekend offers from Shandong refineries were raised; tight domestic supply underpinned the market. However, downstream demand remains largely need-based, and traders are cautious about chasing gains, leaving spot trading subdued and limiting further upside.
