Poor market demand, steel prices continue to fall

The overall steel price of the spot market continued to fall last week. No matter from the perspective of futures disk or from the fundamental data, the overall negative sentiment in the market has spread to various types of steel at this stage. At the same time, merchants are more pessimistic in terms of mentality. In view of the poor demand, the market mostly maintains low-priced shipments, and the overall price continues to decline sharply compared with last week.

Inventory of China's various steel market conditions

1. Construction steel
Chinese construction steel prices fell sharply last week. Specifically, national demand has not improved, and market confidence has been frustrated. At the same time, the sharp decline of the screw surface aggravated the pessimism of the market, and the pace of spot price decline gradually accelerated, with a deep decline. From the data point of view, the output has not changed significantly this week, the factory warehouse and social warehouse have both increased, and the demand for watches has declined. Inventory data also failed to bring positive sentiment to the market, and overall prices fell sharply this week.

2. Hot rolled coil
The average price of China's hot-rolled coil market fell slightly last week. The average price of the domestic hot-rolled coil market fell sharply. The average price of 3.0mm hot-rolled coil in 24 major markets in China is 4,731 yuan/ton; the average price of 4.75mm hot-rolled coil is 4,662 yuan/ton.

3. Cold rolled coil
Last week, the price of cold-rolled coils in China fell slightly, and the market transactions were generally average. The average price of 1.0mm cold rolling was 5427 yuan/ton, down 6 yuan/ton on a week-on-week basis.

4. Profiles (beam steel, channel, angle steel)
The price remained weak last week, and the overall decline expanded compared with last week. The price of raw materials fell this week, but the decline in the spot market performance far exceeded the decline in raw materials.

Prediction for next week

On the whole, the overall production enterprises began to reduce their production slightly last week, but relatively speaking, the current factory warehouses and social warehouses continue to increase. Under the condition of sluggish demand, resource pressure continues to focus on the trade link. At the same time, for the subsequent changes in demand, most varieties maintain a bearish attitude. Therefore, from the perspective of market operations, merchants will continue to focus on shipping and cashing in the short term. Near the weekend, the price of raw materials continued to fall, and the cost was not enough to effectively support the price, and the implementation of production reduction and maintenance would take some time. Therefore, it is expected that the domestic steel market price will continue to run weakly this week.
