Total inventories at Sinopec and CNPC’s warehouses digested 20,000 tons day-on-day to 520,000 tons as of 21 January 2021.
Apparently, manufacturers have completed replenishment activities for this week, resulting in a more sluggish sentiment toward the end of the week. Players are monitoring the holiday schedules among local manufacturers with the hope that buyers would make another round of replenishment moving forward.
