According to SunSirs, in July, the rainfall area increased significantly, the cement market demand weakened, and the cement price continued to fall. On July 1, the cement price in East China was 444.20 RMB/ ton, and on July 9 was 426.20 RMB/ ton, a decrease of 4.05%. The current price was 10.95% month on month, and the current price was 9.32% lower than last year.

Since July, the Meiyu season comes, the cement market demand is low, the inventory is generally high, and the cement price is in the downward channel.

By region, in Jiangsu Province, affected by Meiyu weather, on July 3 to 4, major enterprises in Suzhou, Suqian, Yancheng and other regions in Jiangsu Province informed the price of various types of cement to be lowered, with a drop of 10-20 RMB/ ton.
