Commodity Resin Prices Bottom Out
Flat-to-upward pricing trajectory predicted for the five highest-volume commodity resins.  

Flat-to-Upward Pricing for PE, PP, PS, PVC, and PET
The pricing trajectory appears to be flat-to-upwards for the five highest volume commodity resins moving to first quarter’s end. 

Prices Flat or Lower for Commodity Resins
Low feedstock prices, higher supplier inventories, and slowed demand are key drivers.

Lower Prices for PP, PS, PE, PET; Flat for PVC
Low feedstock prices, higher supplier inventories and slowed demand in most cases are key drivers.

Volume Resin Prices Enter 2019 on Downward Path
Significant declines in feedstock prices, general year-end slowdown, and resin export/import issues contribute to this trend.

Commodity Resin Prices End Year on Downward Path
Falling feedstock costs are one factor driving prices lower for PP, PS, PVC and PET, while PE remains flat.

Commodity Resin Prices Generally Trending Downward Heading to Year's End
Falling raw material and feedstock costs are one common denominator driving prices of PP, PS, PVC and PET down, while PE is flat.

Higher Prices for Commodity Resins, Except PP
Higher feedstock prices and strong demand drive price hikes for PE, PS, PVC and PET.

Upward Pricing for Commodity Resins with Exception of PP; Flat Pricing Underway?
Higher feedstock prices, strong demand, and tariffs drive price hikes upwards for now.

Flat to Lower Pricing for Volume Resins— Except Nylons
Improved supply/demand balance in key feedstocks and resins is steering prices flat to lower, but not for nylons.

Pricing Trajectory is Flat-to-Down for Most Volume Resins
Nylons 6 and 66 are the key exceptions due to tightness of feedstock and resin.

Prices Flat for PE, PVC; Down for PS; Up for PP, PET
Contrary feedstock and demand trends lead to divergent pricing behavior.

Prices Up for PP & PET; Flat for PE, PS, PVC
The upward trend for PP and PET continued, but at least PP prices likely have peaked.

Prices Flat for PE, PVC; Down for PS; Up for PP, PET
Contrary feedstock and demand trends lead to divergent pricing behavior.

Prices Flat for PE, PS, PVC; Up for PP & PET
