While the number of transactions for homo-PP has fallen from the previous session, Chinese buyers continue to search for competitive LLDPE cargoes thanks to the firming Dalian Commodity Exchange. The relatively smaller allocation for LLDPE also explains the higher percentage of deals. However, buyers are generally more cautious amid the rising number of infection cases.
