Recently, cement prices in some parts of East China have fluctuated and consolidated.

In some regions, due to the influence of the rising surrounding market, the price has been adjusted intentionally, but it has not been implemented yet.

Recently, the coking coal market has been operating stably and weakly. The safety inspection activities have led to the shutdown of some coal mines, and the supply of some kinds of coal has been slightly strained. The downstream coke enterprises have suffered from the loss of profits. Recently, they have maintained the purchase of coking coal on demand, and the inventory of coking coal in the plant has increased slightly, but the overall inventory has remained within a reasonable range. The inventory pressure in the mining area is low, and the mentality of pricing is strong. At present, the overall negative factors of the coke market are dominant, and the market is expected to raise and lower again. The coke enterprises are currently holding a wait-and-see attitude. It is expected that the coke market will be dominated by weak and stable operation in the short term. The coke inventory of key links in the future market, the profits of coke steel enterprises, the price trend of coke coal, and the sales of downstream finished products.
