Products: at present, the overall weakness of the domestic spot market of coke and coke is stable, and the market operators are mostly on the wait-and-see attitude. Coke enterprises are basically the same as the previous stage, and the downstream steel plants are still cautious in purchasing. The enthusiasm of traders is not high, the overall purchasing capacity is insufficient, and the inventory of coke enterprises has increased slightly. In the downstream, the deal of steel plants has not improved significantly, but the steel price has increased slightly. With the steel market entering the off-season, the overall market demand will gradually weaken. In addition, the coke inventory of steel plants remains high, so the steel purchase is mainly rigid, and some manufacturers have control over the arrival of goods.
Industry: according to the price monitoring of SunSirs, there were three kinds of commodities in the rise and fall list of bulk commodity prices on October 30, 2019. The top 3 commodities were LNG (1.32%), methanol (0.74%) and Brent crude oil (0.03%). There were seven kinds of commodities with a month on month decline, and the top 3 products were liquefied gas (- 2.29%), dimethyl ether (- 1.41%) and MTBE (- 1.23%).
- Market Forecast
According to the coke analysts of SunSirs, at present, the domestic coke market is in full supply. After entering the winter, the coke and steel industry has limited production, but at present, the expectation of limited production of the steel plant is greater than that of the coke enterprise, and the steel plant purchases on demand; because the long-term coke price remains low, the profit space of the coke enterprise is insufficient, and there is strong resistance to further increase and decrease. It has been predicted that the coke market will be weak and stable in the near future. In the future, it is necessary to pay attention to the policy and steel plant inventory.
