two。 The price of coke in the non-main coke area increased in the fourth round. Steel enterprise: the high language bird is not surprised.

3. Spot prices fell to this, some arc furnace steel enterprises gross profits close to the break-even line; steel enterprises normal maintenance "make-up lessons" is increasing.

4. The decline in iron ore inventory data has converged, and the futures mine has fully countered expectations. High demand, high discount, supply-side convergence superposition the author predicts the probability of profit of steel enterprises to expand again in August.

Australia Reviews Anti-Dumping Duties on Galvanized Steel from India, Malaysia, Vietnam Amid Zinc Concerns
On September 9, 2026, Australia initiated its second sunset review of anti-dumping measures on galvanized steel sheet from India, Malaysia and Vietnam, and separately launched a sunset review of countervailing measures on imports from India. The review covers July 2025-June 2026, with the final report expected by February 11, 2027. As galvanized steel is the largest end-use sector for zinc, the measures directly affect export costs and competitiveness, potentially impacting Australia’s domestic zinc demand and supply chain. Maintaining the duties would provide some protection for domestic steel and coating capacity, while termination could increase low-priced imports and affect regional zinc consumption. The final outcome remains subject to the authorities’ determination.
