SMM Stainless Steel Spot Daily Review: Stainless Steel Prices Remain Firm on March 26, Market Watchful with Moderate Sales. On March 26, stainless steel prices remained firm and showed an upward trend. Although downstream demand fell short of expectations and transactions were moderate, some downstream users restocked due to rigid demand as month-end approached. The most-traded contract 2505 fluctuated rangebound, with SS2505 fluctuating rangebound between 13,380 and 13,410 yuan throughout the day. Short-term market prices are expected to fluctuate rangebound, and the subsequent trend will depend on the volume of downstream demand.
