Petrochemical Standard's weekly Aromatics Trade Flow report. Monitors imports of BTX and styrene into the US. Includes related pricing and freight information.
US benzene and styrene prices fell sharply due to declining crude oil prices. October benzene spot prices in the US fell $62 to $753.50/mt DDP HTC while FOB Korea benzene prices dropped $63 to $701/mt. August US styrene prices decreased $50 to $1,160/mt FOB USGC. Freight rates and arbitrage opportunities between regions are also reported. Korean exports of benzene to various regions in July are noted. Prices of other aromatics like toluene and xylenes also declined for the week on light demand.
Polygons are classified based on the number of sides and angles they have. Prefixes are used to indicate the number of sides, for example "tri" means 3 sides. A bubble map shows common polygons such as triangles, quadrilaterals, pentagons, hexagons, etc. and their corresponding prefixes and number of sides.

Spot benzene and styrene prices in the US declined over the week. Benzene fell $24 to $1,507/mt while styrene retreated to $1,645/mt. Toluene rose $9 to $1,283/mt while mixed xylenes softened $51.50 to $1,203/mt. Margins for styrene producers were negative at -$11.02/mt. In Asia, benzene and styrene prices were mostly flat while toluene fell $7 and mixed xylenes rose $16 for the week. Several producers faced planned and unplanned outages across facilities in the US and Asia.
Ferroalloy prices are set to decrease further in the coming months as demand for steel remains weak globally. Ferroalloy prices have already decreased 5-8% in major markets this month, following a 30% drop in steel prices over the last six months. While raw material prices like manganese ore have reached bottom, ferroalloy prices will continue to fall to reflect the low steel prices. The price trend may only start reversing in the second half of 2016 if steel demand increases.

The styrene monomer market rally in Asia during the first half of 2015 lost momentum in the second half as prices declined sharply. Massive plant turnarounds in Asia and the Middle East during the second half had little impact on stabilizing prices due to weak crude oil prices and China's slowing economy. Inventory levels of styrene monomer in China increased from very low levels in the first half, easing supply tightness. Weak seasonal demand further weighed on prices in the third quarter. While margins for non-integrated styrene producers remain above breakeven levels, the outlook for the fourth quarter and early 2016 remains uncertain depending on inventory builds and demand trends.
This document provides a weekly summary of pricing and market dynamics for various petrochemical products, including benzene, styrene monomer, xylenes, toluene, and paraxylene. Key details include benzene prices falling over $60 per metric ton in the US and Asia, styrene seeing increased demand from Europe and Brazil, xylenes prices declining globally along with falling PTA prices in Asia, and toluene prices dropping nearly $120 per metric ton in the US. Various graphs show pricing trends for benzene, styrene, and other products over time. Vessel movements and expected arrivals delivering benzene, styrene, and other chemicals to locations in Asia, Europe and the Americas are also

1) August benzene prices were higher on the week but declined on Thursday, closing near $1,522/mt in the US while the FOB Korea price fell to $1,367.50/mt.
2) Spot toluene and mixed xylene prices fell sharply over the week, with toluene closing at $1,255.50/mt and mixed xylene at $1,185/mt in the US.
3) US paraxylene prices gained earlier in the week due to tight Asian supply but scaled back to near $1,350/mt on Thursday, remaining below Asian values but above European prices.
SPDR Gold Trust GLD, the world's largest gold-backed exchangetraded fund, said its holdings stood at 980.34 tonnes, remain unchanged from previous business day.
This document provides a market update on steel prices for various regions. It reports that steel prices have continued to fall globally, with prices in Europe, Asia, and the US down from their 2014 highs. It notes overcapacity in China is expected to lead to continued growth in Chinese steel exports. Forward curves show prices expected to rise slightly in 2016 on potential improved demand and trade measures, but prices are forecast to remain in backwardation in 2015 due to oversupply conditions.
