Report Industry Investment Rating - Not provided in the given content Core Viewpoints - The price of international crude oil has continued to rise due to geopolitical relations and other factors, which has strengthened the cost support for PX. The domestic PX supply level is low, demand is good, and the fundamental boosting effect still exists. However, whether the PX benefit can continue to rise depends on whether there are more unexpected factors. [2] - The cost of PTA is pushed up by the rising crude oil, but the spot basis has weakened due to the shipment of the main PTA suppliers. The PTA processing fee has entered a low - range, and it is difficult to boost the price due to the expected new device production on the supply side and the lack of improvement in the off - season on the demand side. PTA will move in a volatile manner, with cost being the dominant factor. [2] - The mainstream negotiation price of polyester bottle - chips in the Jiangsu and Zhejiang markets has risen, but the market trading atmosphere is light. The supply side's starting level remains low, and the market supply is abundant, while the downstream terminal's buying enthusiasm is not high. [2] - Without more unexpected positive factors, it is expected that PX, PTA, and PR will operate in a volatile manner.
