Dow CEO: Petrochemical Supply Disruptions to Last Until 2026

Dow Inc. CEO Jim Fitterling announced that the company expects petrochemical supply disruptions stemming from the war in Iran to persist through the remainder of 2026. The head of one of the world's largest petrochemical producers stated that this situation will continue to impact global supply chains. Fitterling noted that geopolitical tensions are creating uncertainty in raw material procurement, leading to persistently high production costs. The company is currently working to pivot to alternative supply sources and optimize inventory management under these conditions. Dow's remarks indicate that supply shortages in the petrochemical sector may persist in the medium term. Analysts assess that this could exert upward pressure on prices for plastics, rubber, and other petrochemical derivatives. This is not investment advice.

Dow's CEO announced that petrochemical supply disruptions will persist until 2026, potentially pressuring the company's short-term profitability. Technical indicators also point to weakness: RSI at 47.7 is below the neutral zone, MACD is below the signal line, and the price is below the 20-day moving average. The stock closed down 0.22% in the last 24 hours, trading at 38.00. The 50-day moving average (37.90) stands out as a near support level, but the supply disruption news could lead to a test of this level. Selling pressure is expected to continue in the short term.
