	Polyester Staple Fiber Price Trends
	Asian polyester staple fibre prices firmed up early in the week only to remain stable throughout. Trade was buoyant, but went into stalemate later due to falling feedstock cost. In China, insufficient transportation and lusterless downstream demand limited the upward movement in prices.

	Polyester Filament Yarn Price Trends
	Activities in the Asian polyester filament yarn markets seen picking up steadily as producers and traders resumed operation after the long Lunar New year holidays. However, liquidity remained poor and many offers remained flat by the end of the week, after rising at the beginning.

	Purified Terephthalic Acid Price Trends
	Asian purified terephthalic acid markets started off the week on a higher plane but dipped slightly later as more players stepped to the sidelines ahead of weekend. Sentiment slightly firmed up with strengthened futures and rising paraxylene cost.

	Paraxylene Price Trends
	Asian paraxylene prices surged to a four-month high as the week kicked off and rallied later in the week as traders were busy concluding deals amid firming demand. European scarce offers, higher bids and expectations that Asian prices would see large increases in February and March caused spot values to go up significantly.

	Polyester Chips - Fiber Grade Price Trends
	Polyester chip markets were bolstered by the feedstock sector despite the short-term weakness of feedstock market. It will also help in medium-to-long prospect. Certain improvement in demand was foreseen as downstream producers are to restart next week in China.

	Monoethylene Glycol Price Trends
	Asian mono ethylene glycol prices slipped this week due to lack of storage space, despite the markets kicking off the week at a three-month high but sentiment turned bearish later in the week. Nearly 800 kilo ton tank inventories dampened buyers’ sentiment.

	Ethylene Price Trends
	Asian ethylene market started the week on a firm note, driven by strength in downstream markets such as polyethylene, which lifted the Asian prices up. Prices had remained unchanged for ten consecutive days amid a lack of market direction during the Lunar New Year holidays.

	Nylon Filament Yarn Price Trends
	Soaring caprolactum and nylon chip prices increased cost pressure on nylon producers helping them to hike of yarn prices after the festival. Stronger market confidence and higher nylon chip values, downstream demand turned better amid buy-rise sentiment, which bolstered nylon yarn prices.

	Benzene Price Trends
	Asian benzene prices fell 0.97% week on week tracking softer prices in the US where they fell US$35 during the past week. This week the Asian fall was notably lesser than in the US. NWE benzene weakened against naphtha, but sentiment stayed firm for February.

	Polyamide Chips Price Trends
	With caprolactum markets becoming active after the holiday and prices increasing significantly imposed higher cost pressure on chip producers which forced them to raise offers to reduce margin losses. It is expected that caprolactum sentiment will be healthy in H1 2012, since its capacity expansion is slower than that of the downstream.

	Caprolactum Price Trends
	Caprolactum markets in Asia opened after the long holiday with prices picking up significantly despite lusterless demand. The support largely came from the rebounding feedstock markets, which made caprolactum sellers raise offers this week.

	Acrylic Staple Fiber Price Trends
	Acrylic staple fiber producers faced a significant increase in cost and under pressure pegged their offers firm on the back of higher feedstock, bringing spot discussions up. However, downstream yarn market was still quiet and seemed not to follow up at the moment. Some major producers in China were still producing for orders of January, with steady operation rate.

	Acrylonitrile Price Trends
	Acrylonitrile prices went up across markets this week as feedstock propylene prices increased and supported by limited availability of spots. Although Asian suppliers maintained stable operation during the week, inventory were low, while most of cargoes due to arrive in Asia in early February had been booked, and supplier withheld their goods amid a handful of turnaround overseas.

	Propylene Price Trends
	Propylene prices continued to climb in Asian markets, hitting a four-month high. January price average was up 9.6% on month due to tight supply. US propylene markets surged this week, with refinery-grade propylene leading the trend.

	Viscose Staple Fiber Price Trends
	Viscose staple fibre markets in Asia had a bullish start after the Spring Festival and offers saw three rounds of increases within one week. Earlier in the week, some producers raised offers to US cents 2.69-2.74 a kg (17.0-17.3 yuan a kg) on the first day and three days later offers were raised further by US cents 8 a kg.

	Viscose Filament Yarn Price Trends
	The Asian viscose filament yarn market trading sentiment continued its weakness even after the Lunar New Year Holiday, as limited downstream mills resumed production after the holiday. Buying interest for feedstock was also low.

	Naphtha Price Trends
	Asian naphtha spot premiums rose while prompt timespread widened in backwardation on limited supply as arbitrage flow from the West declined after several refineries shuttered in Europe and the US.

	Crude Oil Price Trends
	Crude oil futures rose at week-end surprised by the surge in US jobs for January which was an added sign of improving economic growth and raised hopes for better oil demand going forward.

	Wool Price Trends
	This week was modest for the wool markets which continued to see more stability entering February. The Australian EMI was marginally down by Aus cent 1 to close at Aus$11.93. In terms of US$, the index was at US$12.75, up US cents 2 from last week.

	Cotton Price Trends
	US cotton futures surged this week as investor buying fuelled due to a strong US jobs report and worries over floods in Australia which may damage the cotton crop there. Benchmark March cotton on ICE Futures US rose 2.2% to close at US cents 96.34 per pound. For the week the market was up 0.7%.
