China's steel output to decrease in July amid rising losses and weak demand

In July, key steel-producing companies in China plan to reduce their output of rebar and wire rod. This decision comes as the construction materials sector faces increased losses and a seasonal downturn in demand. Steel mills have experienced compressed profit margins due to multiple price hikes for coking coal, leading some to operate at a loss. AI

    Deepening losses coupled with a weak demand season, July building materials planned output continues to decline

    据SMM调研重点生产钢企56个样本数据:7月螺纹计划产量742.8万吨,较6月实际产量减少38.97万吨,降幅4.98%;7月螺纹日产23.96万吨,环比降幅8.05%。7月线盘计划产量319.7万吨,较6月实际产量增加1.87万吨,增幅0.59%;但7月线盘日产10.31万吨,环比降幅2.66%。焦炭第十轮提涨发起,落地虽处于博弈阶段,但钢厂6月经过额外的3-4轮提涨,产成材效益持续压缩,部分企业已处于亏损阶段,现阶段钢厂盈利率在33.33%,较6月下降明显,目前普遍效益水平在(-200-100)之间。(财联社)
