3、 Transactions and Supply and Demand

During the traditional off-season of high temperatures, downstream real estate and infrastructure construction have slowed down, and national building materials transactions continue to decline month on month;
Social inventory has accumulated slightly, factory inventory has decreased slightly, and the weak supply-demand pattern continues;
Steel mills continue to suffer losses, and plans for blast furnace maintenance and production reduction have increased, providing bottom support for steel prices;
Today, multiple steel mills lowered the ex factory price of building materials by 20 yuan/ton, and the market is seeing a warming atmosphere.
