TREE NEWS reports: Crude oil’s main futures contract rose more than 6% at the open of China’s commodity futures market. Coking coal and fuel oil gained over 3%, while low-sulfur fuel oil, asphalt, paraxylene, PET bottle chip and staple fiber all climbed more than 2%. Shanghai tin and glass each fell more than 2%.
China Commodity Futures Open: Crude Oil Jumps Over 6%, Coking Coal and Fuel Oil Up More Than 3%
The breadth of gains across crude, refined fuels and petrochemical feedstocks points to a single upstream trigger rather than sector-specific demand, since paraxylene, PET and staple fiber sit downstream of the same oil complex. The split tape matters more than the headline: energy-linked contracts bid while tin and glass are sold, suggesting rotation within Chinese commodities rather than a uniform risk-on move. Whether the petrochemical chain holds its gains once the initial crude impulse fades is the open question.
