The market. Week by week.
Spot prices reflect short-term market prices. They show prices for volumes traded outside longer-term contracts. Unlike contract prices, spot prices often react faster to supply, demand, inventory pressure, import flows or short-term shortages.
That is exactly why spot prices are more volatile. They can change from week to week and show early where a market is heading.
pricenxt makes these weekly spot prices easy to analyse. You see current price history, changes, and comparative values in one place.
This helps you recognise short-term price signals sooner, check current market movements and put spot prices into context against contract prices.
The indicator for polymer price developments
