- We discussed US manufacturing strength partly due to the reshoring of production in our latest Sunday thematic. A positive trend for US chemical producers, implying margins, not volume, as the chief 2022 sector profit risk.
- Other global commodity trends flagged in this report comprise monomer, polymer, and feedstock indicators relevant to gauging sector profitability.
