China night futures: propylene falls 5.53%, iron ore rises 0.44%

Propylene futures fell 5.53% in China’s night trading session, while LPG, plastics and polypropylene declined by up to 4.46%, fuel oil dropped 1.56% and PTA slipped 0.56%. Iron ore rose 0.44%, coking coal gained 1.68%, low-sulfur fuel oil added 1.72% and coke climbed 2.8%.

AI take

The split within the night session is the story: steep losses across the propylene chain and refined products sit alongside gains in steelmaking inputs like coking coal and coke. That divergence suggests pressure specific to petrochemicals and fuels rather than a broad commodity risk-off move, which matters for producers whose margins straddle both complexes. Whether the propylene complex keeps underperforming the ferrous raw materials is the open question.
