Trading activity on the Shenhua auction platform at the start of the week continues to perform healthily. Despite prices for homo-PP being CNY20/ton higher, sales are admirable while LLDPE at CNY50/ton taller than the previous session managed to secure above 85% of deals. 

Traders credited the pre-Dragon Boat holiday replenishment activities for the strong sentiment. Besides, coal-based PP and PE cargoes on the auction platform are still more competitive than spot materials, which added to their advantages.
