2、 Local Enterprises: Limited Infrastructure, Real Estate Decline, Chongqing Cement Demand Declines by 20% -30%

Cement market demand in Chongqing has dropped by 20% -30% this year due to limited infrastructure construction and declining real estate investment. Some cement companies can only operate half of their production capacity. Chongqing is listed as a province with high debt, limiting new projects. Data show that the growth rate of fixed assets investment in Chongqing has declined, and real estate investment has also decreased significantly year on year. As a result of reduced demand and market downturn, cement prices continue to fall, and many enterprises operate at a loss. It is expected that the demand for cement will be difficult to recover in the short term.
