Methanol is a liquid fuel for ships and a hydrogen carrier, also made from gas or coal. The basic organics proxy correlates with the fertiliser proxy at 0.28 for monthly moves and 0.74 for yearly moves, reflecting the shared gas feedstock.
- 0.28 monthly change correlation
- 0.74 12-month change correlation
- 1.21 fitted elasticity
