【Cold wave weather obstructs road transportation, difficult for coke enterprises to resume smooth operations】

This week, heavy snow in areas such as Shanxi and Shaanxi has blocked roads, causing most coke enterprises to be unable to transport their products, resulting in a significant increase in inventory. Downstream steel plants still have a rigid demand for coke, but there will be rain and snow in the north next week, making it difficult for road transportation to fully recover. Additionally, coke supply may continue to increase, so coke enterprises may continue to accumulate inventory next week.
