The domestic MIBK market fell broadly, and the negotiation reference fell to 10100-10300 yuan / ton. On the one hand, the long-term decline of raw material acetone is obvious.

Nickel price rebounded at a low level on July 19

1、 Trend analysis

 

According to the nickel price monitoring of the business agency, on the 19th, the average nickel market price was now quoted at 175116.67 yuan / ton, up 5.13% from the previous trading day and 21.86% year-on-year.

 

Recently, spot nickel rebounded at a low level. The main reason for the rebound is that last week’s data showed that the U.S. economy may not enter recession soon. In addition, Fed officials still cooled their expectations of raising interest rates under the condition of good data. In addition, the sharp rise in crude oil led to a general rise in bulk commodities, with Lun nickel closing up 3.60% overnight. In terms of supply and demand, the inventory of LUNI nickel continued to fall last week. Since the end of May, the inventory has declined, with the latest inventory level of 62.532 tons, constantly refreshing the low level for many years. Although domestic production and overseas influx of goods have increased, the cost of ferronickel plant is high and the price is strong. The downstream stainless steel inventory has fallen back to the normal range in recent years, indicating that demand has picked up. In terms of production, affected by early losses, domestic stainless steel production fell month on month.

 

Forecast: the macro will drive the nickel price to rise, but the fundamentals are general. It is expected that the nickel price will fluctuate at a low level in the short term.

Influencing factors: 1 Worries that the global economic recession may curb fuel demand and the rebound of the epidemic, coupled with the impact of the strengthening of the US dollar exchange rate, extended the decline in international crude oil prices this week. This week, USOC fell by more than 8% and closed above $96 a barrel on Friday (as of 17:05 Beijing time). 2. PTA prices fell sharply this week, dragged down by the sharp decline in upstream crude oil and PX, as well as the decline in downstream polyester production and pessimistic demand. 3. Under the continuous loss of ethylene glycol this week, the maintenance plan increased, the commencement fell, and the supply and demand pattern is expected to ease. Although the price of ethylene glycol is lower driven by the cost, the disk surface is stronger than PTA and staple fiber. 4. Dragged down by the sluggish demand and the sharp decline in costs, the main force of short fiber futures continued to fluctuate and fall from the highest level of 9168 on June 10. This week, it broke down again, and short fiber spot also significantly retook its previous increase. However, at present, spot delivery is still tight, and the trend of spot is stronger than that of futures.

 

Future forecast: under the expectation of global economic recession, the short-term oil price may continue to fall, and the cost side support of polyester staple fiber will weaken. There may be replenishment demand in the downstream after the continuous decline of prices. Polyester staple fiber is expected to be weak and stable in the short term. Pay attention to the price of raw materials, downstream demand, epidemic situation, etc.
