Reuters reported that China average daily crude steel output rose to 1.685 million tonnes in late November, rebounding for the first time in over a month, but doubts remain about underlying steel demand as the government clampdown on the property sector remains firmly in place.
Chinese steelmakers are struggling with lower orders and swollen inventories and have conducted overhauls well as production cuts at their facilities.
