On the market, futures prices fell in early trading on the 30th, rebounded in the afternoon and closed in red. The two-day rebound in the futures trend has increased the heat of the steel market, but the spot price has been stable recently, with little change. The main reason is that traders have a short view of the future market, and the wait-and-see mentality prevails. In addition, there is no change in the demand of the upstream and downstream, the inventory of the downstream is not high, and the procurement operation is more cautious. Therefore, the low-level resource acceptance is good, but the overall transaction situation of the market is general.

Market outlook

On the whole, cost side support is strengthened, futures market sentiment has improved, while downstream demand is still unchanged. It is expected that short-term steel prices will rebound in a certain period, and the market will mainly fluctuate in the future.
