Three places crude oil changes rate of 4% price adjustment threshold

From February 8 onwards, the official price adjustment of domestic refined oil has only been in the past two weeks. The boundary between the 4% change in the average price of crude oil in the three places and the necessary parameters for deciding whether or not to adjust the price has once again been easily broken, which means that it takes only 22 working days. After the conditions are satisfied, the “window” of domestic refined oil price adjustment will be opened again in a short period of time. However, in the industry, it is generally believed that relevant departments may postpone the implementation of price adjustments for the sake of maintaining stability.

After the price adjustment of refined oil products landed on February 8, the change rate of crude oil in the three places will also enter a new round of statistical period. However, within a short period of 13 working days, the rate of change in crude oil in the three places has reached the threshold of 4% price adjustment. According to statistics, as of February 23, the rate of change in the three places has reached +3.94%, implying that the data will definitely be "broken four" again from February 24.

“It is estimated that on March 8th, the conditions for the opening of the refined oil price 'window' will be satisfied, but the '**' will be held from March 5th to March 14th. It is unlikely that the refined oil will be adjusted on time.” Say.

According to industry insiders, by March 9th, China will once again usher in a "window" for refined oil prices. By then, if the NDRC initiates price adjustment, it will be the shortest time interval between price adjustments in history. However, according to past practice, the NDRC usually does not immediately adjust prices when the prices of refined oil products have reached the conditions of increase.
