Podcast - China LPG Market Weekly Take-away: Stronger Fundamentals After the May Day Holiday

Despite a sharp increase in import arrivals and a significant build in port inventories, domestic prices moved higher, supported by tighter refinery supply and improving petrochemical demand.

In this episode of Mysteel Commodity Flux, Ai Bo examines:

Why China's LPG market rose even as international LPG and crude prices declined.
How lower domestic supply offset the impact of concentrated import arrivals.
What improving PDH and alkylation economics signal for propane demand.
Why China's continued buying activity remains supportive for the broader Asian LPG market.
