Affected by the continuous Meiyu weather, the demand in Guangdong region declined more than expected, coupled with the impact of cement in the peripheral Guangxi region, the market price in western Guangdong continued to decline. After the market price in western Guangdong fell by 30-40 yuan/ton in mid-June, the transaction price of some enterprises in the region continued to fall by 10-20 yuan/ton from the end of June to the beginning of July. At present, the regional cement price has also fallen to a low level, and the follow-up quotation is mainly weak and stable. During the week, the quotations of enterprises in the Pearl River Delta region were low and stable, and there was no significant fluctuation.

The cement market in Northeast China has been partially implemented in the recent process of pushing up, but the overall demand is still insufficient. At present, the shipment volume of enterprises is maintained at the level of 3-4%, and the downturn of market demand has formed a certain resistance to the price rise. In order to alleviate the contradiction between supply and demand, Northeast China plans to continue to implement peak staggering production for 20 days in July to stabilize market prices by reducing supply.

Up to now, it is difficult to push up the price of cement in Beijing-Tianjin-Tangshan area. Although the Tangshan area began to implement the plan of stopping kilns for 10 days since July 4, the actual clinker inventory is still relatively sufficient, and the support for prices is limited. At the same time, affected by the decline in off-season demand, the prices of individual enterprises have been adjusted back. In southern Hebei, the early push up is difficult to maintain, the overall demand continues to decline, and the price has fallen back to the level before the price increase.

The concrete market as a whole showed a weak and stable price trend, the market activity was not good, and the cost of raw materials in some regions continued to decline, which further dragged down the market price. The mainstream price of the same grade concrete in the main urban area of Chongqing is basically maintained at about 220 yuan per square meter.

Affected by the continuous rain weather, the demand downturn in Guangdong is difficult to improve, coupled with poor market conditions, the price of new projects is less, and the number of orders received by commercial mixed enterprises is less. In terms of price, the cost price of cement has fallen to the cost level, and there is no significant fluctuation in the week. After the transaction price of commercial mixed enterprises continued to fall in the early stage, most projects were even sold at a loss, and the quotation in the week was weak and stable as a whole. The transaction price of cement in Guangxi is still in the downward stage, affected by the cost reduction, coupled with a serious shortage of demand, the market competition is fierce. Recently, the price of concrete in various markets has been reduced by about 5-10 yuan per square meter, and the quotation in various markets is chaotic at present.

Recently, the concrete market in Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai continued the downward trend in the off-season, and cement prices generally fell below the level before the price increase in early June. Concrete cost support continued to collapse, superimposed Meiyu high temperature weather led to a decline in construction intensity, and the shipments of mixing stations generally shrank. In order to maintain cash flow, some enterprises have increased their efforts to benefit secretly. Under the background of deep fermentation in the traditional off-season, it is expected that the decline will be difficult to change in the short term. The follow-up trend needs to pay attention to the strength of demand repair and the price stabilization actions of leading enterprises after the end of the rainy season in early July, but the overall market is weak and stable.

Affected by the construction off-season, the overall performance of building materials market demand in Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region is flat. Although the rising cost of raw materials in the early stage exerted some pressure on the market, the increase in concrete prices did not receive a positive response from the market, showing a stable and weak trend as a whole, mainly due to insufficient market demand. It is expected that the subsequent hot and rainy weather in summer will continue to affect the construction activities, coupled with the limited number of new projects, the construction progress of the original projects will remain flat, and the concrete market in Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region may maintain a weak operation situation in the short term.

This week, the concrete market in Northwest China as a whole showed a trend of differentiation. The Guanzhong area of Shaanxi Province was supported by the stable cement price, and the quotation of commercial mixing remained stable.

Supply and demand in Gansu and Qinghai markets are balanced, and prices remain stable. The actual transactions in southern Xinjiang are still mainly purchased on demand, while the market in northern Xinjiang maintains a stable volume and price. On the whole, the Northwest Commercial Mixed Market is still in the period of demand recovery, and enterprises generally balance inventory pressure by controlling capacity utilization.

Recently, the cement market in Northeast China has been pushed up partly, but the overall demand is weak, the shipment volume of enterprises continues to be depressed, only 3-4% of the normal level, and the transmission of concrete cost is obviously blocked. At present, the concrete market is in a deep deadlock: on the one hand, the off-peak policy delays the decline of cement, which makes the quotation of commercial concrete remain weak and stable; on the other hand, the slow progress of infrastructure construction and the difficulty of housing construction funds lead to the continuous shrinkage of actual transactions.
