[El patrón de holgura se mantiene sin cambios; se espera que los precios del acero al silicio GO se mantengan estables la próxima semana] Actualmente, la demanda en la industria de transformadores aguas abajo muestra una clara divergencia. Los pedidos de proyectos de alta gama, como instalaciones de ultra alta tensión y centros de datos, se mantienen estables, sustentando la demanda de acero al silicio Hi-B de alto grado. Sin embargo, los pedidos de transformadores de distribución ordinarios están estancados, con una demanda de recursos de grado medio-bajo persistentemente débil. La mayoría de las empresas de transformadores mantienen estrategias de compra justo a tiempo y operaciones con bajo inventario, lo que resulta en un entusiasmo de compra limitado en el mercado. El lado de la oferta presenta una holgura estructural, con abundantes recursos circulantes de acero al silicio de grano orientado CGO ordinario en el mercado. Algunos comerciantes pequeños y medianos ofrecen ligeras concesiones de precio para acelerar la rotación de capital. Mientras tanto, los recursos de grado alto, como las especificaciones de alta inducción magnética y ultra delgadas, siguen siendo escasos, y las empresas de primer nivel mantienen firmes sus precios cotizados.
