CITIC Futures stated that boosted by the rise in crude oil during the Spring Festival, chemical prices generally got a flying start. From the perspective of the polyester industry chain with the highest prosperity, terminal enterprises generally resumed production earlier after the 2026 Spring Festival than in previous years.
