原材料市场一周回顾(8月10日- 8月16日)
Last week(August 10 to August 16), prices of most raw material varieties fell. Among them, the price of iron ore continued to fall sharply and the decline slowed down. A few steel mills began to purchase; due to the relatively high cost of scrap, some steel mills began to reduce the amount of scrap used, and scrap prices also fell; coke prices rose steadily, but The continued upward momentum was insufficient; the coking coal market did not change much; the ferroalloy market was dominated by decline. The price changes of major varieties are as follows:
Imported iron ore prices have slowed down
After the iron ore market fell sharply in the previous period, the decline slowed down and the overall shock was mainly small. Domestic iron fines prices have fallen, and local areas have fallen sharply. Among them, Hebei Tangshan iron fines prices fell by 70 yuan / ton, steel mills fell sharply after the price arrived. The purchase price of iron concentrate in Liaoning Iron and Steel Plant was slightly lowered, and the inventory of local steel mills was at a relatively low level; the purchase price of iron concentrate in Liaodong Steel Plant was lowered by 30 yuan/ton, and the mines were shipped normally. The ex-factory price of iron ore fines in Shandong mine was lowered by RMB 20/ton. The ex-factory price of mines in southern Anhui was lowered by 40 yuan/ton to 850 yuan/ton~875 yuan/ton. The northern mines in Anhui lowered the ex-factory price of 65% magnetite dry-base tax-included to 870 yuan/ton. The prices of iron concentrates in Jiangxi and Hunan steel mills are relatively stable.
At present, the price of the outer disk is lower than the spot price of the port, and the spot transaction of the port is general. However, as the cost of molten iron further shows its advantages, it is expected that the price of imported iron ore will continue to fall, and it is expected to stabilize.
Coke prices have risen steadily
Last week, the coke market price rose steadily. Among them, the second round of coke prices in East China, North China, Northeast China and Central South China all landed, with a total increase of 200 yuan / ton, Yunnan, Guizhou region, the implementation of half-month pricing, the price of the second half of August is not yet fixed, the possibility of stability is large. After the coke price rises, the profit of some coke enterprises has exceeded the profit of steel mills. The steel mills do not accept the coke price increase. The individual steel mills in North China intend to lower the purchase price of coke, but the coke enterprises have no inventory pressure. It is expected that the coke market will stabilize in the short term.
Coking coal market is stable and small fluctuations
Last week, the domestic coking coal market steadily fluctuated slightly. Shanxi Anze low-sulfur coking coal supply is tight, the coal mine has no inventory, the price is 1530 yuan / ton ~ 1580 yuan / ton, the individual coal mine price is raised 20 yuan / ton, but the actual temporary stability, coal mine delivery smooth. The price of coking coal in Shandong is stable. Most of the local coal mines have resumed production due to the large-scale production stoppage and production reduction of the typhoon. It is difficult to raise prices in the later stage of the coke market, which has certain constraints on the coking coal market. It is expected that the domestic coking coal market will be stable in the near future.
Ferroalloy market is mainly down
Last week, the ferroalloy market as a whole fell mainly. In terms of ordinary alloys, the prices of ferrosilicon and silico-manganese have fallen steadily, and the market of high-carbon ferrochrome has been running smoothly. In the case of special alloys, the price of vanadium-based alloys has fallen sharply, and the price of ferromolybdenum has fallen slightly. Specifically:
In terms of ferrosilicon, Hegang announced that the final price of ferrosilicon purchases in August was 6,450 yuan/ton, which was the same as that in July, lower than the purchase price of the previous East China region. The transaction price of ferrosilicon fell to the bottom, and the production enterprises were highly motivated to ship. . At present, some production enterprises and delivery warehouses have certain inventory accumulation. In the short term, the ferrosilicon market is not strong enough. It is expected that the ferrosilicon market will be weak in the short term.
In terms of silico-manganese, the bidding for steel mills has basically ended, and silico-manganese enterprises mainly rely on execution orders, and low-cost resources are difficult to deal with. Recently, 2 to 3 silico-manganese ore furnaces have been put into production, and it is expected that the silico-manganese market will run smoothly in the short term. .
In terms of high-carbon ferrochrome, the price of raw material chrome ore is still at a high level, the willingness of high-carbon ferrochrome producers to increase, and the low-cost resources in the market are gradually decreasing, but the downstream demand is generally high, and the price of high-carbon ferrochrome is in a dilemma. It is expected that the high-carbon ferrochrome market will be temporarily stable in the near future.
In terms of ferromolybdenum, the tenders of steel mills slowed down, the demand for terminal in the ferromolybdenum market was insufficient, and prices fell slightly. The market of ferromolybdenum raw materials is mainly based on the delivery of pre-orders. The spot price is not much. The profit margin of ferromolybdenum manufacturers is gradually compressed, the price is reluctant to sell, the market wait-and-see atmoSPHE稀土逐渐走强，钼铁价格经过小幅下行调整后基本稳定。市场将会疲软而稳定。
