*Auction and Deal volumes are in tonnage 

*All USD equivalent prices only exclude the 13% value-added tax (VAT). 

 

Transactions remain sluggish toward the end of the week, especially for homo-PP on the backdrop of higher availability and lower deal prices. Chinese buyers appear lacking purchasing interest to monitor the startup at new local plants.
