At the beginning of the month, the domestic asphalt spot market rose significantly after the festival, and the price rose rapidly in a short time. The main reason is that the international crude oil price fluctuates at a high level, which is good for the whole oil industry chain. On the other hand, at present, the supply of some refineries is low, and the market supply is relatively scarce. The asphalt futures market continued to rise, which also boosted the bullish sentiment of the whole asphalt market.

In terms of regions, the price increase in South China is the most obvious, mainly driven by the shortage of resources in the region and the rise of main prices; The second is East China, mainly due to Sinopec’s price increase of 100-140 yuan / ton during the week; Then in the northwest, northeast and southwest, the prices of some brands rose, and the transaction range rose slightly; The price increase in Shandong and North China was relatively small, which was mainly affected by the wide range of crude oil shocks. Some low-cost sources of goods still existed, and the overall increase was limited.
