Global Plastic Crisis! Naphtha Shortage Shakes Industries Worldwide — From Petrochemical Shock, War, Energy, and Environment to a Major Transformation of the Plastic Industry   : SO OK TRADING : 29 APR 2026
Global Plastic Crisis! Overlapping Shocks Shake the Industry At the beginning of 2026, the world faced a “Petrochemical Shock” that sent plastic raw material prices soaring by more than 37%. Conflicts in the Middle East and the closure of the Strait of Hormuz caused a severe shortage of naphtha—the lifeblood of the plastic industry—across the globe. Japan and South Korea were forced to cut production, while China accelerated its shift to alternative energy. Europe and the United States also struggled under surging costs. At the same time, the world is grappling with an environmental crisis from overflowing plastic waste. Recycling rates remain at only 10%, while the other 90% is landfilled, incinerated, or leaked into the environment. Alarmingly, microplastics have already entered the food chain and the human body. This is not just a “temporary crisis” but a structural turning point for the global plastic industry. Companies that adapt quickly—embracing Bio-based Plastics, Chemical Recycling, and the Circular Economy—will emerge as leaders in the new era now taking shape.

Global Aluminum Market After the Peace Accord – In‑Depth Analysis Price and Supply Outlook as of June 20, 2026 By SO OK TRADING Following the breakthrough peace agreement between the U.S. and Iran and the reopening of the Hormuz Strait, the global metals market reacted immediately. Aluminum prices, which had surged past $3,700/MT, dropped sharply to $3,400/MT within a week — a classic “knee‑jerk drop” reflecting the disappearance of the geopolitical risk premium. But this is not a permanent downturn. The market is entering a phase of “adjustment toward a new balance”, with short‑term pressures and long‑term drivers coexisting.
