Chinese bidders returned to the Shenhua auction platform to secure competitive coal-based cargoes following the rebound on Dalian Commodity Exchange. Deal prices for both homo-PP and LLDPE dropped another CNY50/ton compared to the previous session, giving arbitrage traders a healthy gap with the futures market to work on.
Purchasing activities from manufacturers, however, have declined as this segment of buyers is winding down operating rates before taking off for the long holiday.
