Some coke enterprises with insufficient raw materials take the initiative

The coke market in Shanxi continues to operate steadily. Most coke enterprises are short of raw materials and have taken measures to limit production to different degrees. Due to the shortage of raw materials and high steel inventory, the maintenance of blast furnace is increasing, and the overall market wait-and-see mood is dominated. Road transportation is greatly affected by the epidemic, traffic control is still in place, the difficulty of cargo transportation is increasing, and the number of transport vehicles is small. Generally speaking, the coke market is in a state of weak supply and demand in the near future, and the price remains stable. The coking coal market remained stable and the tight supply pattern has not been eased. The resumption of production of local coal mines in Shanxi is slow. The coal enterprises that originally planned to resume production on February 10 are in a state of undetermined temporarily. It is expected that production will resume in the next week or two. On the market side, the price quotations of some fine coal in Shanxi will continue to rise, and the price of coking coal will not be available. In the future, it is necessary to continue to pay attention to the resumption of production of coal mines.
