If the situation continues, it may affect local mine shipments.

In terms of black, thread rose 0.19%, hot coil rose 0.03%, stainless steel rose 0.04%, coke rose 2.59%, coking coal rose 0.92%, iron ore fell 0.42%, hot roll total inventory this week 3.7685 million tons, month-on-month + 3.72%, year-on-year + 10.74%.

We will organize key areas to establish a work contact mechanism, summarize the progress of coal mine work resumption, and promptly study and coordinate the problems existing in coal mine work resumption. at present, the rate of coal mine work resumption has reached 92.1%.

Crude oil fell 1.64% in the previous period, and recently, major oil-producing countries are preparing to relax production reduction measures, a surge in new crown cases in several countries, and increased uncertainty over a global recovery in fuel demand, increasing the risk of a short-term pullback in oil prices.
