On April 25, the National Cement Price Index (CEMPI) closed at 125.55 points, down 0.22% annually and up 16.52% year-on-year. In April 25th, the Yangtze River Basin Cement Price Index (YRCEMPI) closed at 123.68 points, down 1.07%. Since the middle of
April, the domestic cement market demand has not changed much, and the national cement price as a whole has fallen more or risen less. In the early stage, many enterprises tried to boost the market through "notification rise", but due to insufficient demand follow-up, prices fell after the false rise. Many places in the north promote price recovery, but due to overcapacity and fierce competition, the actual implementation is difficult.
On April 25, the national clinker price index (CLKPI) closed at 126.73 points, down 0.5% from the previous month.
