April 08th — The mainstream quotation for toluene in the South China market today is 8,000–8,150 yuan/ton, down from the previous trading day. In the previous trading day, the toluene and xylene markets experienced narrow fluctuations, and prices are expected to remain weak with oscillations during the day. Affected by the sharp decline in crude oil, overall sentiment in the chemical products market is bearish. Close attention should be paid to the guidance of aromatics futures on spot prices. Currently, domestic spot supply remains tight, providing some resistance to price declines in the market.
