In the short term, ferrous metals are consolidating at lows, and close attention should be paid to steel mill maintenance situations [SMM Steel Industry Chain Weekly Report]

This week, finished steel continued its gradual decline, while raw materials began to stabilize, with coking coal rebounding to some extent. During the week, rumors about a coal mine accident in Shanxi and customs clearance restrictions at the Mongolian border spread, boosting sentiment. Coupled with the China Mineral Resources talks, the raw materials side rebounded from lows. In the second half of the week, as rumors of maintenance at steel mills across various regions emerged, negative feedback expectations intensified somewhat, and raw materials pulled back. Approaching the weekend, however, the 10th round of coke price increases was initiated, pushing coking coal and coke futures higher. In the spot market, the off-season characteristics of end-users became increasingly evident, with the market restocking at low prices as needed. With spot prices remaining relatively firm, the spot-futures price spread continued to widen...

ADC12 Prices Fall in Overseas Markets, Narrowing Import Losses with Domestic Prices Firm

[SMM Aluminum Alloy Express] Recently, ADC12 prices in overseas markets continued their downward trend, with quotes pulling back further to the range of $3,100-$3,200/mt today. Meanwhile, domestic ADC12 prices remained relatively firm supported by aluminum scrap costs, driving a continued recovery in the price spread between Chinese and overseas markets and further narrowing import losses. Currently, the import loss per mt of ADC12 stands at about 1,087 yuan, pulling back to the level seen in early March. If domestic prices stay high going forward while overseas markets remain under pressure and decline, the degree of price inversion between Chinese and overseas markets is expected to narrow further, potentially opening the window for import profits gradually.
