Copper prices have fallen to $8,900 per ton, while iron ore has decreased by 0.9% to trade under $100 per ton in Singapore. In a recent article from MINING.com, CRU's Liz Yuxi Gao analyses these price drops and their impact on supply and production. “In China, steel margins have remained in negative territory, indicating that steel demand is weak, and mills see no reason to keep production elevated or to build stocks of raw materials,” Liz said. “Meanwhile, supply was exceptionally high in Q2.” Read more: https://lnkd.in/gGNDHEjF #steel #copper #ironore

Regional #steel trading associations in China are requesting a delay in the implementation of new mandatory quality standards for steel rebar, from September 25 to January 1, 2025. Traders and industry players argue that they require additional time to sell off their current stockpiles. "The essence of the problem is that market players feel it's hard to fully draw down the existing inventories within three months at a time when demand is seasonally poor," CRU's Jiang Zhenzhen 江真珍 said in an interview with Reuters.

In this article from MarketScreener, CRU's Kevin Bai analyses the slight drop in China's #steel production in June and the factors that contributed to this slowdown.
