Domestic inventory decreased. Inventories in Shanghai, Guangdong, and Tianjin decreased mainly due to continued low warehouse arrivals and sustained just-in-time procurement by downstream enterprises. Overall, the inventories in the three regions decreased by 4,900 mt, and the total inventory in the seven regions decreased by 5,200 mt.
