According to the feedback from the market

in Shaanxi

, the current clinker inventory in Guanzhong area of Shaanxi is at a low level, and the start-up of superimposed infrastructure projects has led to a rebound in demand, and the relationship between supply and demand in the market tends to be tense and balanced.

Mainstream cement enterprises notified that the price of cement will be raised by 30 yuan/ton from the 25th, and the actual implementation remains to be observed. On the

According to market feedback from

Sichuan

, leading enterprises in Yibin and Luzhou regions have notified that the price of cement has been raised by 80 yuan/ton since February 19.

Fujian

on the 18th, some major manufacturers in Fujian began to notify all parts of the country to raise the price of various types of cement by about 10 yuan/ton. According to the current market situation, workers have returned to work after the Glutinous Rice Balls for Lantern Festival, but due to the poor return of funds, most construction sites have not yet started, and the overall market demand has recovered slowly. In addition, the transaction price of some enterprises in the province is still declining after the festival, and the implementation of this round of price push remains to be seen.

Despite the strong willingness of enterprises to raise prices, the recovery of market demand is relatively slow, and in some areas, even due to problems such as capital repayment, the construction site start-up rate is low, and the actual implementation remains to be further observed.
