Can’t Get No Supply-faction: Reliability Repriced, Pricing Power Fractures

April 7, 2026

General Thoughts: Feedstock inflation is shifting profit pools upstream, forcing buyers to absorb volatility as reliability overtakes price and accelerates alternative supply in procurement decisions.

Supply Chain/Commodities: Global propylene tightness is supply-driven across crackers, PDH, and refineries, sustaining higher prices and compressing merchant margins as costs outpace derivative pass-through.

Energy/Upstream:

No Easy Way Out: Costs Rise, Pricing Power Determines Returns

April 2, 2026

General Thoughts: Rising input costs are exposing margin fragility across industries, shifting advantage to pricing power, as policy-driven demand hopes build to offset war-driven inflation and weak fundamentals.

Supply Chain/Commodities: Access to sulfur, not production, is shifting pricing power, boosting downstream inflation, destabilizing fertilizer flows, and concentrating value among logistics-controlled

Wires Crossed: Constraints Set Prices, Capital Follows What Shows Up

March 31, 2026

General Thoughts: Power markets increasingly show delivery timing and capacity access, not fuel direction, set prices, as constraints and rising capital requirements shape regional and global economic outcomes.

Supply Chain/Commodities: Disruption has shifted the basis of competition, as command of feedstocks and delivery networks, not scale or demand, now sets

Record Year: Chemical Producers Run For Safety, As Capital Selectively Walks Away

March 26, 2026

General Thoughts: Supply shocks are shifting power from cost to control, concentrating value in integrated systems as export-driven convergence reshapes demand, margins, and capital allocation plans globally.

Supply Chain/Commodities: USGC ethane and ethylene exports reward midstream and export infrastructure with global optionality while driving cost convergence and diluting US chemical

Polymer Price Expectation Service

– Independent, Forward-Looking Insight on Monthly Polymer Price Expectations

C-MACC’s new monthly service provides directional guidance on expected contract reference prices for key U.S. polymer chains: polyethylene (PE), polypropylene (PP), polystyrene (PS), and polyvinyl chloride (PVC). Built on deep industry experience and robust supply-demand analysis, the report offers a price expectation range and directional view—not post-settlement confirmation.

This service was developed in response to growing industry demand for greater transparency, competition, and credibility in price discovery. It combines fundamentals, trade flows, cost structures, and market sentiment to deliver a high-value alternative to traditional pricing services. Each report also includes variance analysis, comparing prior expectations to final settlements.
