Liu Yaohua, an analyst of Zhongyu information market, also confirmed that after the early price reduction in Yuheng area, Shaanxi Province, the recent shipment situation has improved and some coal prices have been raised. In terms of ports, with the release of demand for some coal types, the market sentiment is better than that in the early stage, and some traders are willing to hold up the price.

" A coal trader told reporters. The coal researcher of Yimei Research Institute told the Shanghai stock exchange that after a large round of adjustment in the previous period, the decline in the price of coal mine mouth in the main production area has converged. With the coming of heating season in the north, the upsurge of purchasing winter storage is gradually rising, and with the safety inspection coming again, the production of coal mines in some areas is limited, and the price of coal mines will be supported. Last week, the market coal price fell below the old co price, which also stimulated the terminal power plant to release part of the demand, especially the demand for low calorie and low sulfur coal with high cost performance, which will also support the market coal price. It is expected that coal prices will gradually stabilize in the short term.
