Market outlook
Affected by weak terminal demand and expectations of crude steel production restrictions, the decline in raw material prices was greater than that of finished products, and the profit margin of steel mills has improved. In March, the immediate profit of Jiangsu thread increased by 68 RMB/ton to 85 RMB/ton compared to February. The recovery of profits has prompted steel mills to accelerate their resumption of production. Mysteel data showed that at the end of March, the daily production of molten iron in 247 steel mills rebounded to 2.37 million tons, an increase of 68,000 tons from the beginning of March.
Steel supply is expected to remain high or even further increase in April. The daily output of molten iron from 247 steel mills has rebounded from 2.3 million tons in early March to 2.37 million tons at the end of the month, approaching the market's widely recognized critical value of 2.35 million tons for supply-demand balance. According to Mysteel's top note data, the daily average output in April may rise to 2.39 million tons, and the high output level is still continuing.
Considering the arrival of the off-season, although most factories' costs continued to rise, their shipping mentality continued, and their offers remained strong at high levels. This month, most domestic facilities have started operating normally, but production and sales have not yet balanced, and inventory was accumulating. It is expected that the price of color coated sheets will remain stable in the short term.
