I have just gotten back from a week in China, so I thought I would let you know what I saw in regards to business during my travels.  The Chinese economy is slowing down significantly, but mainly because export sales to the USA and Europe are off at this time.  China will see 6-7% growth in 2008, but that is down 50% from its 15% annual growth from 2000-2009.  Most of the businesses that I visited said that their business was off by 40-50%.  Most buyers anticipate that material prices will move down in June and July, so they do not want to place any orders in the month of June.  Most of the Asian traders are in panic mode, and are just trying to sell off their inventory before material prices go down further.  This panic selling is not helping when trying to secure export sales orders, because no customer wants to lose money on August deliveries, for resin that they purchased in June.  The price of Nylon 6 is softening weekly due to the price of Caprolactam falling significantly over the past 60 days.  Now the price of PA66 regrind is being challenged by the lower prime PA6 prices.  Caprolactam is selling this week in the spot market in Asia below $2200/MT, which should translate into prime PA6 fiber chips selling around $1.06-1.08/lb. CIF the Port Asia.

The Asian housing market has been correcting since the beginning of 2012, with home sales prices falling in most major cities.  China’s housing market is somewhat like ours in the USA, some areas of town see their prices stay flat or increase, while other parts of town see significantly lower home sale prices.  Don’t’ get me wrong, most houses in China have a lower sale price, but not all.  The Chinese car market is starting to normalize after 9 strong years of sales.  The private ownership of cars in China just started in 2003. Their initial car sales boom has come to an end, and the market is starting to develop into a more normal supply and demand driven market.

In order to stimulate the economy the Chinese central government is starting to initiate some domestic stimulus programs to support the continued growth of the country’s infrastructure.  They will continue to expand their rail and highways systems into the Western part of the country, and build more subways in the big cities.  The government will lower the interest rates for loans from the central Bank of China, and lower the cash reserve rate to free up more money for lending.  But what company needs a cheap loan if you don’t have any orders on hand, so you can run the factory?

We think that China will remain slow through the end of 2012, or until we see some real increase in product demand out of the USA and Europe.  We feel that business will be very slow in June and July 2012, and material prices should bottom out sometime in July.
