**1. Previous Closing Prices in the Mainstream Market**
Last Friday, domestic dichloromethane prices moved upward. As quotations rose, market purchasing enthusiasm gradually cooled. Downstream buyers and traders had limited room for additional stockpiling following earlier replenishment, and on-site transactions notably softened. Over the weekend, market quotations remained stable, while manufacturer sales volumes declined. However, overall industry inventories stayed low, and at the beginning of this week, plants faced no pressure from inventory backlogs. With supply and demand in check, this week’s market is likely to see stable price movements, with significant fluctuations unlikely.
**2. Key Factors Affecting Current Market Price Changes**
- **Inventory**: Low inventory levels at producing enterprises; mid-to-high inventory levels downstream.
- **Cost**: Costs remain low, but overall corporate profit margins are limited.
- **Demand**: Enterprises expect today’s shipment volumes to weaken.
