Asia Distillates-Paper markets more upbeat despite muted physical window activity
SINGAPORE, Sept 19 (Reuters) -Asia's middle distillates markets turned more upbeat against a backdrop of strong futures performance and more paper swaps buying interest emerging, though physical cargo discussions failed to take flight.
Paper swaps turned into a backwardated structure at some points in the afternoon trading session, with prompt October prices trading higher than November prices - signalling the regaining of some market confidence.
The market shape for ICE gasoil futures is still backwardated so Asian markets probably have to follow to a certain extent, one trade source said, adding that more sellers for October may come out soon.
Refiner offers were scant given the volatile price movements in the afternoon trading session, but more are expected in the next few days.
Refining margins GO10SGCKMc1 were little changed from the previous trading session at around $12 a barrel.
Spot cash discounts GO10-SIN-DIF were little changed from the previous session amid a wide buy-sell gap and overall limited discussions in the open trading window.
Regrade JETREG10SGMc1 declined back to a discount of 12 cents a barrel, reflecting the strength in ICE gasoil futures for October and the prevailing market shape.
