Asia Distillates-Markets little changed on thin activity; August jet fuel offers in full swing
SINGAPORE, July 16 (Reuters) -Asia's middle distillates markets recorded slightly slowing trading momentum in the physical markets, with prices also posting limited fluctuations as overall fundamentals were likely to remain weak in the near term.
Some traders are expecting the market to bounce back only in September, which explains the paper market structure for the time being where prompt months are in contango and forward remains in backwardation.
Fundamentals still look weak for prompt markets and this may extend into August, two sources said.
Markets were mixed on how China's August export plans would pan out, given that margins turned slightly shaky in the past two sessions after weakness in the international markets compared with local China wholesale prices.
Refining margins GO10SGCKMc1, however, recovered slightly as the weakness in crude futures outweighed declines in the paper market.
Cash differentials GO10-SIN-DIF gained again for a second consecutive session this week to a discount of 16 cents a barrel, with Trafigura still bidding in the open window.
Meanwhile ,for jet fuel, SK Energy offered one more spot cargo for August shipment in line with earlier expectations, with China oil major Rongsheng PC also in the market with two cargoes for early August.
Regrade JETREG10SGMc1 was little changed at the market's close of slightly above $1 a barrel, likewise the previous session.
