卓创资讯：Geopolitical risks in the Middle East region still exist, and coastal methanol prices remain stagnant.

Recently, due to the impact of unstable international situations, concerns about imported methanol expectations remain, and coastal methanol spot prices are hovering at low levels. As the Spring Festival approaches, downstream buying interest is not high, and some downstream olefin units are still undergoing shutdowns and maintenance, leading to expectations of weakened demand and putting pressure on coastal methanol prices in the first quarter. Recently, both supply and demand factors have played significant roles in the coastal methanol market, resulting in recent price fluctuations and a stalemate. From a medium to long-term perspective, it is still necessary to pay attention to recent changes in the international situation. (Zhuochuang Information)
