Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai: Affected by the typhoon and external cloud system, some mixing stations in Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai reduced production or temporarily stopped production, and the output and shipment of concrete declined. Meanwhile, the prices of raw materials such as cement and sand continued to weaken, and the cost support further collapsed. Under the pattern of strong supply and weak demand, local quotations have declined, and the market has maintained a weak operation. In the short term, if demand recovers less than expected after the typhoon, prices will remain low and volatile.
Anhui: Recently, the concrete market in Anhui continued to be weak, and the price was stable as a whole. Affected by insufficient demand and financial pressure in some areas, the price was slightly reduced. In terms of raw materials, the prices of cement and sand are at a low level, with limited fluctuations, weak support for concrete costs, and the overall market sentiment is relatively low. In the short term, the demand side is difficult to improve significantly, and it is expected that the price of concrete will remain weak and stable, with local or narrow adjustment space.
Fujian: Since July, the rainy weather in Fujian has lasted for more than half a month. The recent rainstorm has caused the construction of most construction sites to stagnate, and the demand for concrete and other building materials has dropped sharply. The average daily shipment volume of most commercial mixing station enterprises is only about 300-400 cubic meters. In terms of price, the demand is off-season, the market competition is fierce, and the downward impact of raw materials and cement. In order to seize the off-season market share, combined with their respective inventory pressure and other factors, their respective enterprises through price reduction and promotion and other ways to reduce the quotation by different margins, the overall market is weak and stable downward.
Jiangxi: This week, the price of concrete in Jiangxi continued to be weak, the market quotation was stable as a whole, and there was a slight decline in some areas due to intensified competition, which was basically flat compared with last week. The demand side continued to be depressed, affected by multiple factors such as weather, the downstream construction progress further slowed down, and the average daily concrete shipments decreased slightly compared with last week. The production enthusiasm of supply-side enterprises is not high, most mixing stations mainly produce on demand, and the inventory pressure is still acceptable. In the short term, market demand is difficult to improve significantly, and prices are expected to remain low and volatile.
Shandong: Recently, the market price of concrete in Shandong has continued a weak downward trend. Although the temperature has dropped and the rainy weather has decreased, the terminal demand has not improved significantly.

In terms of raw materials, the price of cement and other building materials remained low, the cost support was insufficient, the inventory pressure was superimposed, and some enterprises continued to exchange price for quantity.
