Recently, due to steel mills' introduction of price policies and announcements of production reduction measures to stabilize the market, the market has stopped falling and has changed to wait and see whether the market demand has improved.
It has increased but the room for improvement is limited. In addition, according to the analysis of industry insiders, because the market is in the process of rapid decline in the early stage, the market situation has constituted a prerequisite for stabilization, but the market demand has not risen sharply, which has led to the recent domestic carbon-bonded steel market fluctuating and falling. In addition, since the goods sold by traders are the original stocks in their hands, when the current market plummets, the idea of traders is to clear the stocks. It is expected that the current market price stabilization process is an adjustment period after the rapid market decline, and the market will continue to maintain a downward process in the future, and the supply and demand relationship in the industry has not changed.
