Since October 9, some major manufacturers in Shijiazhuang, Handan and Xingtai in Hebei have once again pushed up cement prices by about 30 yuan/ton. From the current feedback, the market demand performance is light, the shipment volume is general, and the actual implementation range after the price increase remains to be observed.
September, the leading enterprises in Wuhan, Ezhou, Huangshi, Huanggang, Xianning, Yichang, Xiangyang and other regions notified that the price of cement had been raised by 20-30 yuan/ton. At present, the price has been raised by 10-20 yuan/ton, and some of them have not been implemented. It is expected to continue to push up in the later period.
3. Cement prices remain "strong"! Hainan has been targeted
by cement enterprises in Guangdong and Guangxi, although the decline is different, but the downward demand is already the consensus of Hainan cement enterprises. In this case, the main reasons for the relatively "strong" cement price in Hainan are: first, Hainan Province is surrounded by the sea on all sides, making the market between Hainan and other provinces relatively closed, increasing the difficulty of external cement inflow, which is conducive to the maintenance of the price; second, the degree of overcapacity in Hainan Province is still good, and the number of cement enterprises in the region is small, the concentration is high, and the market environment is relatively stable.

2. A number of cement enterprises have recruited bankruptcy reorganization investors
