On May 9, the National Cement Price Index (CEMPI) closed at 96.23 points, unchanged from last week, down 20.58 % year-on-year. On May 9, the Yangtze River Basin Cement Price Index (YRCEMPI) closed at 85.92 points, down 0.91 % from the previous month.
This week, the national cement market continued to fall more or rise less, and prices in many provinces were under pressure. Northwest China is under pressure as a whole. Prices in Shaanxi, Gansu, Ningxia and Qinghai are weak and stable at a low level, and some areas in Xinjiang are trying to push up, and the landing remains to be observed. The market in the southwest region continued to bottom out, and the weak operation fell into the state of high inventory and weak operation. Both the local demand and the outgoing volume have declined, but the external market price has risen, and it is expected that the local clinker price will rise passively. Cement prices in North China are stable, but Shijiazhuang has a potential risk of decline, although Shanxi has a plan to push up, but demand is difficult to support. East China as a whole showed a trend of stability, weakness and overall decline. In the short term, destocking is the main way. The Pearl River Delta in central and southern Guangdong is the only cement price increase area this week, and whether the price increase can be fully implemented needs to be further tracked.
On May 9, the national clinker price index (CLKPI) closed at 97.93 points, down 0.05 % from the previous month.
