Westlake Chemical Partners LP Hits New 52-Week Low at $18.38

Westlake Chemical Partners LP has reached a new 52-week low, trading at USD 18.38 as of October 30, 2025. This marks a significant decline for the specialty chemicals company, which has seen its stock price decrease by 16.45% over the past year, contrasting sharply with the S&P 500's performance of 18.13% during the same period.
With a market capitalization of USD 774 million, Westlake Chemical operates within the microcap segment of the market. The company has a price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio of 2.00, indicating a valuation that may attract attention despite recent performance challenges. The stock's 52-week high was recorded at USD 25.04, highlighting the volatility in its price movements.

However, the company has faced difficulties in long-term growth, with operating profit declining at an annual rate of 1.43% over the last five years. The recent financial results have also shown a decrease in net profit and an increase in raw material costs, contributing to the stock's current position in the market.
