Recently, the price of cement and clinker in the Yangtze River Delta region has risen again, which is the third round of this year. Since the beginning of
this year, the competition for share among cement enterprises in the market along the Yangtze River has intensified, and the price of cement has been declining. In early April, cement prices in some areas along the Yangtze River even fell below the cost line.
In order to save themselves, the price of cement and clinker in the Yangtze River Delta region was raised by 30 yuan/ton around mid-April, but due to the poor implementation of peak-staggering production by enterprises in the region, the actual implementation was about 15 yuan/ton.
By early May, cement prices in some areas such as Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai had basically fallen back to the original point. In the middle and last ten days of
May, the price of cement and clinker in the Yangtze River Delta increased by 50 yuan/ton again, but the actual implementation was around 20 yuan/ton. By the end of June, the price of cement in the Yangtze River Delta basically dropped to the level before the price increase. It is reported that the ex-factory price of cement in some areas of Jiangsu has even fallen below 200 yuan/ton again.
On July 5, the price of clinker along the Yangtze River Delta is planned to rise by 50 yuan/ton, and cement is expected to rise by 50 yuan/ton.
This is the third round of pushing up cement prices in the Yangtze River Delta. What will be the specific implementation? Let's wait and see.
