Downstream purchasing enthusiasm was low [6] - Entering the consumption off-season, the downstream operating rate of polyethylene was at the lowest level of the year, and there was no sign of improvement in pipe demand.

The supply side would still face pressure in the future. Downstream companies mostly maintained a low inventory strategy, and the supply-demand balance was expected to deteriorate, leading to a weak downward trend in the single-sided market [6] Research Team - Energy and Chemical Research Team: Peng Jinglin (Polyolefins), Li Jie (Crude Oil and Fuel Oil), Ren Junchi (PTA, MEG), Peng Haozhou (Urea, Industrial Silicon), Liu Youran (Pulp), Feng Zeren (Glass and Soda Ash) [4]
