The hikes in spot PP cargoes are attributed to the limited ready-stock cargoes in the local ground, however, buyers are not responding positively toward the new price list, especially when a large part of the market has taken off for the holiday.
“The producer is too optimistic about the market outlook. The demand is not strong enough to support any price increment at the moment. Our customers prefer to adopt a wait and see stance,” a trader said.
