Polymer Prices Standard Thermoplastics

POLYMER PRICES Standard thermoplastics at the beginning of February 2008: Slow ordering keeps producer price increases in check / Polyolefins catch up with monomer rises / PVC slightly, PS and EPS significantly higher / Producers' inventories start to swell	14.02.2008
POLYMER PRICES Standard thermoplastics in January 2008: Price explosion for polyolefins / PVC stable / Styrenics also up / PE just balanced / Cracker situation unstable / Speculative trading brakes PP / PS tightening? / Further hefty hikes on the table	05.02.2008
POLYMER PRICES Strong demand tightens hexene grades of LLDPE / Price curve increasingly uncoupled from standard product / C6 to be reported separately in PIE	04.02.2008
POLYMER PRICES Standard thermoplastics at the beginning of January 2008: Major increases for PE and EVA / Monomer increases up the pressure / PP and styrenics also rise / PVC still stable / Supply relatively well balanced / Demand normal	15.01.2008
INEOS NOVA EPS price rise is higher than expected	08.01.2008
POLYMER PRICES Standard thermoplastics in December 2007: No year-end “close-out sale” / Prices mainly firm / Minor corrections at each end of the scale / Advance purchases stemmed / Higher feedstocks prompt calls for steep polymer hikes	04.01.2008
POLYMER PRICES Standard thermoplastics at the beginning of December 2007: Prices predominantly firm / Producers put an end to advance purchases / Buyers who have not yet signed contracts still negotiating / Announcements of large increases for January	12.12.2007
INEOS NOVA Higher prices for EPS in January and February	11.12.2007
POLYMER PRICES Standard thermoplastics in November: Polyolefins and PVC drop slightly / PS follows SM downward / EPS now at rock bottom / Record feedstock prices drive advance purchases / Producers also call for rises at year-end	05.12.2007
POLYMER PRICES Standard thermoplastics at the beginning of November 2007: No major price slump / Rollover talk for polyolefins and PS subsides / EVA still climbing / PVC stable / EPS could bottom out soon	14.11.2007

POLYMER PRICES Standard thermoplastics at the beginning of October: Calls for increases prove unrealistic / Polyolefins development uneven / PVC stable / PS and EPS slide further / Supply predominantly good / Demand mostly slack	15.10.2007
POLYMER PRICES Standard thermoplastics in September: Slacker demand undermines calls for significant rises / Upward trend sluggish for polyolefins and PVC / Styrenics move down with monomer contract / Implementation of further hikes appears doubtful	03.10.2007
POLYMER PRICES Standard thermoplastics at the beginning of September: Most polyolefins rise only slightly / Demand slows / PVC clearly on the way up / PS crumbles under renewed fall in styrene monomer contract / EPS numbers starting to bottom out?	14.09.2007
POLYMER PRICES Standard thermoplastics in August: Producers' demands fail to bite / Supply improves / PE and PP up slightly / PVC stable / PS weakens / EPS down heavily / Demand returning to normal / Outlook varies	05.09.2007
POLYMER PRICES Standard thermoplastics at the beginning of August: Proposed steep hikes fail to go through / Polyolefins up slightly / PVC in strong rollover / PS and EPS see further declines / Supply balanced on the whole / Demand not as weak as expected	14.08.2007
POLYMER PRICES Standard thermoplastics July 2007: Second half-year begins mainly with increases / Polyolefins and PVC rise significantly / PS and EPS notations down less than monomer / Supply adequate - not long / Improved availability of EPS	03.08.2007
POLYMER PRICES Standard thermoplastics at the beginning of July 2007: Inconsistent picture at the start of H2 / Producers push through hikes in polyolefins and PVC / PS and EPS come down on falling styrene / Most commodities tight / PVC and EPS availability improves	13.07.2007
POLYMER PRICES Standard thermoplastics June 2007: Strong demand soaks up short supplies / Delivery bottlenecks for feedstocks / Most prices move up / Fall in styrene price checks call for substantial increases in PS and EPS	04.07.2007
POLYMER PRICES Standard thermoplastics beginning of June 2007 / Force majeure declarations and maintenance turnarounds hit olefin supply / Tough negotiations on steep hike plans / Will higher styrene prices be passed on? / PVC rising / Demand stable	15.06.2007
POLYMER PRICES Standard thermoplastics May 2007: Feedstock shortage and strong demand drive prices up / Polyolefins resist / PS rises on monomer increase / PVC and EPS stable / Producers call for hikes	05.06.2007
POLYMER PRICES Standard thermoplastics at the beginning of May 2007: Moderate rise for polyolefins / Monomer increase passed on in PS prices / PVC and EPS stable / Volumes mostly short / Steep hikes no longer a topic	15.05.2007
POLYMER PRICES Standard thermoplastics April 2007: Polyolefins and PS generally tight / Most of rise in monomer prices passed on / PVC and EPS roll over / Some production plants down / Producers put steep hikes on the table	04.05.2007
POLYMER PRICES Standard thermoplastics at the beginning at April 2007: Demand and higher monomer contracts drive polymers upward / Polyolefins and PS rise significantly / Only PVC and EPS still stuck in a strong rollover / Supply generally adequate	16.04.2007
POLYMER PRICES Standard thermoplastics March 2007: Continued strong demand for packaging boosts polyolefins / Only traders and distributors able to pre-buy / PVC and EPS unchanged as building rests until Easter at least / Notations likely to move up in April	04.04.2007
