At present, businesses wanted to know when such a depressed steel market to come? when can the steady rise in steel prices? I think in the short term, Fundamentals of steel city bad is difficult to digest, and macro many uncertain factors, expect at least one or two months in the market are difficult to see and so, businesses need to be prepared for long-term campaign.
"Steel industry"

June 1 key urban social inventory totaled 15.615 million tons, 917,000 tons less than same period last month, but rise 1.191 million tons over the same period last year. Major social inventories continued to decline, however cold is not apparent, midplane reduced inventories the month before. It is understood that markets such as Shanghai, Tianjin, Beijing, arriving there has been a marked increase in the near future, although in early market weakness, however, steel production has not significantly reduced.
Capacity: steel production is still high at mid-on May, steel production is still not clear. CISA statistics, mid-May, and on average daily output of crude steel and 204 tons, respectively. According to the survey, currently produced threaded steel of small and medium private enterprises may be slightly reduced, but reduction in plate production line maintenance of large and medium-sized iron and steel enterprises is still not clear.

Due to the effects of internal and external economic environment, growth in April for downstream sectors continuing decline, on the national ministries of stimulus frequency in the near future, primarily in the transport, energy, water conservancy and other infrastructure needs a lot of areas, steel market will also benefit. While ministries recently issued Huimin project implementation rules, energy-saving products, significantly boosted market confidence. Despite entering consumption season, however under the national policy of stable growth, lower demand is expected to improve in the late.
Steel plant: June 2012 the major steel mills up for ex-factory price, can be divided into three types: 1, strong flat plate type. Bao Steel, for example, has maintained three months flat, with the exception of 200-500 Yuan/ton of offers for April to 5 June only 200 Yuan/ton of grain oriented silicon steel by none other, other varieties remained flat. 2, stable-small drop.

China Steel net view: high temperature and the arrival of the rainy season, coupled with the steel production power weaker, expected month of June is destined to be a bland, so merchants don't have high expectations. In fact, as far as I know, many businesses may not be as "poguanziposhuai", however, the negative response, be hapless businesses are many.
