Southwest China's concrete market is weak, and raw materials and demand affect prices.

Sichuan-Chongqing: This week, the concrete market in Sichuan-Chongqing region was weak as a whole, the cement price continued to decline slightly due to the pressure of capacity release, the cost-side support was insufficient, and the quotation of some commercial mixing enterprises dropped by 10-15 yuan/m3. The start-up rate of downstream infrastructure and housing construction projects is low, the average daily shipment of mixing stations is less than 60% of the normal, and the short-term market may continue the trend of "weak supply and demand".

Yunnan: This week , the concrete market in Yunnan continued to be weak, the downstream construction demand was weak, and the shipments of mixing stations were hovering at a low level. Affected by the price reduction of cement enterprises, the cost support of concrete is weakened, and some enterprises follow up the price reduction of 5-10 yuan per square meter in order to maintain market share. Regional competition has intensified, and low prices in Kunming, Dali and other places are frequent.

Guizhou: This week, the demand for commercial mixing in Guizhou continued to be in the doldrums, and the difficulty of capital repayment continued to suppress the downstream construction progress. After the May Day holiday, the pace of resumption of some projects slowed down, and the overall shipment volume decreased slightly. Prices are slightly lower in some areas. It is expected that the short-term market demand will be difficult to increase significantly, manufacturers may mainly return money, and prices may maintain a narrow fluctuation pattern.
