With the approaching of the iron ore negotiation, it becomes expecting whether domestic steel enterprises could break through the restrictions from international iron ore giants. What worries steel industry is that under the circumstances of global economic slowdown, high-costs and low downstream demands, the potential risks and difficulties in profit making become intensified in steel industry. Therefore, the reorganization and industrial concentration of has become a new focus in steel industry.

Statistic data from China Iron and Steel Association (CISA) showed that in Jan.-Aug., production costs of domestic steel enterprises soared 60pc, while domestic steel prices started plunging since July with demand decline continued. By October, over 60pc of large and medium steel enterprises were in profit losses, while the deficit had reached 1.154 billion Yuan in Jan.-Sept. this year, 18.06 times up over the same period last year. As the steel production capacity exceeds that of the demand, steel enterprises with poor management will be forced to shut down or restructured and only by the reorganization with enterprises that have secured resources, advanced technology and equipment and stable market could they get rid of the eliminated destiny.

An official from State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission (SASCC) expressed the same opinion “The time for the survival of the fittest in steel industry has arrived. The reorganization by the government promoted little as steel industry was always in fine condition. But now the market will show its huge power.” From metalbiz.com

Discussion Forum » Forecast on China's HRC price trend for Nov.


Hot-rolled coil price dropped once again after the National Day holiday affected by the sluggish downstream demand and price reduction of steelmills. The market price of hot-rolled coil in Shanghai rose to 5900 Yuan per ton in early July from 4700Yuan per ton in the beginning of this year then dropped significantly later and dropped all the way to 3200 Yuan per ton in middle Oct, dropped by 45 percent. The price predicted to rebound in Nov.

It is predicted hot-rolled coil price reached to its lowest at present and it is not likely to drop further later, but it takes long time for steelmills to digest its huge inventory. Therefore, hot-rolled coil price will only to rebound in short period and will be seeking price balance for Nov. It’s from ChinaMetalBiz.com.

At the eighth China International Steel and Raw Material Conference, suppliers and buyers reached a unique agreement that market situation sharply changed and the future was full of uncertainties.
Recently, Shan Shanghua, the general secretary of China Iron and Steel Association (CISA) predicted global steel production capacity growth would come to a halt next year; iron ore supply-demand relation change would arrive in advance.
At present, suppliers and buyers are communicating for the new round iron ore price negotiation, CISA hopes to seek the unity of long-term contract price and spot price and eliminate the price difference between Asia and Europe.

At present, domestic steel industry is in difficulties. The monthly export of steel products could reach several hundred thousand tons in the first half year, which dropped drastically since September, when the export was only 40,000 tons, while the export situation in October was more severe.
Latest figures from China Customs showed that domestic steel export was 6.67 million tons in September, down 1.01 million tons from August. Although the export decline in September was far lower than the previous expectation, all held that the export in October and November will fall sharply.
Analysts of steel industry pointed out that the export data in September was carrying out the contract of July and August, when the international economic situation was not the worst and demands from Europe and America had no obvious shrink. In the fourth quarter this year, steel export from China may face more tough situations.
