Plate
The whole country’s medium plate market was weak this week.
The Winter Olympics closed this week, the steel mills and terminal production restrictions in the northern market were relaxed, and the market supply and demand expectations were stronger than last week.
The low-level transactions at the beginning of the week eased. However, due to the regulatory repression of bulk commodities by relevant departments, the superimposed demand was released slowly. , high-level transactions are still cautious, high-priced resources lack support, the spot price fluctuates and fluctuates with futures fluctuations during the week, the overall operating sentiment is not high, and with the support of low resources, merchants are mainly on the sidelines.
In terms of inventory, the sample inventory in Shijiazhuang this week was 12,000 tons, down 0.11 from last week, Tangshan 2.52 down 0.13, and Handan 4.86 down 0.19. At present, the daily shipment volume of large households is about 200 tons, which is at a lower level than normal, resulting in low enthusiasm for purchasing goods. At the end of the month, individual merchants are negotiable for delivery orders, and the market arrival situation is general. The social inventory in the Guangdong market dropped by 0.4 in 21.9; in Liuzhou, it increased by 0.3 in 1.6; the sales pressure of merchants is not large, and the demand situation of the gold three market will improve, but it is difficult to make a significant improvement in general. As the temperature rises, the market supply and demand environment continues to improve, but the macro international environment is unstable, and the mentality of merchants fluctuates significantly with futures.
It is difficult for the “weak reality” to ease significantly in the short term, and the driving force for the market to rise is obviously insufficient. Next week, the price will be weak first and then strong, and the shock will adjust and run.
