Market Outlook
Recently, trading activity in the local refining market has been moderate, with refinery transaction prices mostly declining. As of now, domestic supply remains ample, and imported coke arrivals are relatively concentrated, while port clearance speeds are sluggish. Downstream purchasing enthusiasm remains fair; in the negative electrode sector, procurement sentiment is positive, providing strong support for raw material demand. In the carbon industry, procurement is primarily based on rigid demand. The carbon materials market for steel applications continues to show decent trading performance, contributing to favorable momentum in the raw material market. It is expected that in the short term, the domestic petroleum coke market will remain stable with slight upward adjustments. Further attention should be paid to refinery operations and downstream demand follow-up.
