< 5 > Heart language and information.

1. Xuzhou launched a 100-day battle to win the blue sky, and the law enforcement team punished no less than two cases a week. It has little impact on steel production capacity and boosts coke to a certain extent.

two。 Tangshan area in August environmental protection production limit documents did not fall to the ground, from the policy point of view, a high probability of landing, the key depends on how to limit production and rainfall.

3. In the game of coke price increase in the second round, the landing depends on the environmental protection and production restriction of Shanxi Erqing Society and the profit repair of steel enterprises.

4. Iron ore.

Port spot 61.5% powdered ore 875, an increase of 5 yuan / ton, but the steel mill still has no appetite; the plate discount is 77 yuan / ton. The fundamentals are not as good as the early days, and the right amount of cloth is empty at every height. The author's forward-looking point of view remains unchanged.

5. The return period of demand should be in due course, do not dance with the market on the wall. In a word, the author states the sufficient conditions of demand return period N times, and does not repeat it.

The rhythm, trend analysis and viewpoint remain unchanged. See the weekly reviews on June 1 and July 26 for details.
