Night futures open: styrene, iron ore, fuel oil, soda ash, pure benzene fall over 1%; low-sulfur fuel oil rises over 1%
The split within the fuel oil complex is the detail worth noting: low-sulfur grades diverging from the broader energy and chemical selloff suggests the pressure is not a single macro energy signal but something more product-specific. Industrial inputs — styrene, soda ash, pure benzene, iron ore — moving together points to a shared demand or sentiment driver rather than isolated supply news. Whether that divergence in low-sulfur fuel oil persists through the session, or converges back with the rest of the board, is the open question.
