The rise in crude oil and futures boosted market sentiment. In Shandong and North China, some projects rushed to meet deadlines, leading to smooth refinery shipments and some traders raising prices, driving up the average market price. In East China, supply was abundant with low - price shipping resources, and in South China, demand was general but prices were stable due to cost support [5]. - The weekly production remained high and demand increased month - on - month. Under the pattern of strong supply and demand, the industrial chain was stably driven. Refinery inventories were low and stable, while social inventories intended to actively reduce before the end of the year. Asphalt supply was still relatively loose, and with good refinery processing profits, asphalt valuation was relatively high. In the short term, oil prices would fluctuate widely, and the cost of asphalt lacked clear drivers. The single - side was expected to fluctuate, and the cracking spread would be dominated by oil price fluctuations in the short term and bearish in the medium term.
