*Auction and Deal volumes are in tonnage 

*All USD equivalent prices only exclude the 13% value-added tax (VAT). They have not taken into account other costs that might incur in the selling process, i.e. import duty, customs clearances.

                 

The number of transactions remains mediocre toward the end of the week, especially for homo-PP and LLDPE cargoes, raising questions about the impact of the supply tightness on the demand conditions.
