Analysis review

The upstream tube blank has slightly increased this week, and the raw material prices have been affected to some extent.

The demand was slowly recovering, and market sentiment had shown some recovery. The apparent speed of demand recovery was relatively slow, and most management companies were cautious about future sentiment. It is expected that seamless tube prices will mainly be consolidated.
