China’s diesel exports are expected to fall in November from the high levels recorded in August and September, with early estimates pointing to about 800,000 metric tons. Heavy shipments late in the summer drew down domestic inventories, and sales for some second-half November cargoes were still not finalized.
Lower Chinese export volumes reduce diesel available to overseas buyers and could tighten regional supply, supporting prices. The shift reflects both depleted domestic inventories and changing export priorities.
After 26 past bullish trade events, ULSD / Diesel moved a median -1.9% over 5 sessions (31% higher; middle half -5.6% to +1.6%), and -4.8% over 20.
