This week, the national cement market continued the pattern of "weak in the south and stable in the north". Affected by the continuous heavy rainfall in the south, the construction progress slowed down significantly and the demand continued to be depressed. The northern market tried to push up partially under the support of off-peak production, but the overall demand was still weak. Prices show a trend of "rising in the north and falling in the south", with significant regional differentiation characteristics.
On June 27, the national clinker price index (CLKPI) closed at 109.74 points, down 2.00% from the previous month.
