This week’s coking coal market is highly volatile (12.2-6)

This week, the domestic coking coal market is stable, with strong narrow range fluctuation and bottom characteristics. According to the monitoring of the business association, the mainstream quotation of the domestic coking coal market in the week of December 2-6 was stable, with slight rise in some areas, mainly due to the tight local supply caused by the accident maintenance and shutdown of coal mines, as well as the production decline caused by the environmental protection and production restriction, superimposed with the import coal policy restrictions and steel market table Now good news and so on boost, the coking coal market situation slightly warms up. At present, the price range including tax is 1380-1510 yuan / ton.

 

Thiourea

In terms of each region, the price of low sulfur main coking coal in Luliang and Liulin of Shanxi Province increased slightly, with a range of 20 yuan / ton. Due to frequent safety inspections in the near future, the output of local coal mines declined slightly, and the procurement enthusiasm of the downstream coking coal was good. In Linfen and Anze regions, individual low sulfur main coking transactions were stable, medium and small increases, and the overall operation of local coal enterprises was limited by environmental protection, with balanced production and sales, and little inventory. Shanxi and Hebei individual coking started the second round of coke rise, market sentiment improved. The short-term coking coal market is temporarily stable, and the price of some high-quality coal is firm.

 

According to coking coal analysts of business association, first of all, from the perspective of market supply, the supply is still positive in the short term. On the one hand, although the port coking coal volume has not declined significantly, customs clearance is still under pressure, and the supply of foreign coal is insufficient. In addition, from the perspective of the domestic market, in recent years, Shandong and other places have implemented production restriction, coke enterprises’ inventory has fallen continuously, the sentiment of the spot market has recovered, and the manufacturers have the willingness to replenish the inventory. But at the same time, the recent safety inspection factors lack of fundamental support for the market sentiment and price boost, so coking coal price is also difficult to do much. The business agency expects that the short-term fluctuation of coking coal is relatively strong. In the long run, it is difficult to maintain a high level due to the influence of industry surplus.

II. Market analysis

 

Products: Recently PVC futures continue to pull up, trend is strong, all the way red, support PVC spot market. At present, the PVC market 5 spot is scarce, and the prices of various manufacturers are rising. Since October, the decline rate and maintenance volume of PVC social inventory have exceeded the level of the same period last year, as well as the impact of the phenomenon of low-cost selling by manufacturers in the early stage, which prompted the downstream to actively take goods and accelerate the reduction of inventory, so that the current market supply is scarce. At this stage, some manufacturers often owe orders and do not accept new orders for the time being, that is, the situation of “you have money, I have no goods” appears frequently. Among them, there are some traders who take advantage of the opportunity to speculate, but the downstream factories are tired, the purchasing enthusiasm is not high, there are many conflicting emotions, and the actual delivery and investment situation is flat. Now the North has entered the heating season, when the industry is in the off-season, the real estate, infrastructure and other end customers start to reduce, the demand for PVC is limited, and the later PVC maintenance enterprises gradually reduce, the supply increases, and the PVC market price may fall. According to the data monitoring of business agency, as of November 28, the main quotation range of domestic PVC is 6650-7000 yuan / ton. At present, the mainstream price of pvc5 carbide in Changzhou is 7020-7100 yuan / ton, that of pvc5 carbide in Hangzhou is 7050-7100 yuan / ton, and that of PVC common carbide in Guangzhou is 7240-7320 yuan / ton. Prices have risen to varying degrees.

The highest price in the session was 6905 yuan / ton, which set a new high in nearly half a year, temporarily ranking first in domestic commodity futures, and there is still the possibility of further exploration in the future.

In terms of calcium carbide, the operation of calcium carbide in Northwest China is normal, the price consolidation is stable, and the price of upstream raw materials is low. Compared with last year, the price has dropped a lot, and the cost support is insufficient, which has a negative impact on the price of calcium carbide. In the future, the price of calcium carbide may be low. The import of PVC downstream products decreased, and the increase of export also supported the price.
