Asia Naphtha/Gasoline-Gasoline crack plunges to over one-month low
SINGAPORE, Aug 7 (Reuters) -Asia's gasoline refining profit margin fell to the lowest level since June 28 on Wednesday amid selling interest in the paper market, traders said.
The crack fell to $5.42 per barrel over Brent crude from $7.02 on Tuesday.
There is a lot of selling action in the paper market pulling the crack down, but fundamentals for gasoline are not that bad, a Singapore-based trader said.
In the naphtha market, the refining profit margin fell by $7 to $85.90 a metric ton over Brent crude on Wednesday. The backwardation between second-half September and second-half October naphtha prices widened by 25 cents to $4.50.
