As of Friday, most regions have implemented the coke price increase, with the increase range of about 50-100 yuan / ton. On June 4, Xuzhou took the lead in starting the price adjustment this month, with an increase of 100 yuan / ton. Xuzhou issued the implementation opinions on accelerating the transformation, upgrading and high-quality development of the chemical steel and coal industry in the whole province on August 7, 2018, which requires that Jiangsu Xuzhou coke enterprises retain 8.59 million tons by the end of June 2020 As a result, local supply in Xuzhou is tight, which drives the price of coke up. The policy of coal production is further implemented in the neighboring Shandong Province. At present, there are 24 million tons of coal production in Shandong Province. In the later stage, nearly half of the production capacity is gradually limited. The overall coke inventory in Shandong Province is low, the sales situation is good, and the local supply is in short supply. In addition to the limited production in some parts of Shanxi Province, the coke enterprises in other parts of China have a high operating rate and stable production. At present, most of the sales are to give priority to old customers.

 

In terms of demand, the blast furnace operation of downstream steel plants is still high, and the “two sessions” benefits are gradually released. In recent years, the blast furnace operation rate of steel plants has been maintained at more than 90%, and the demand for coke is good. In Jiangsu and Shandong areas, there is an external coke mining situation, local market supply is tight, and the demand for coke is well supported.

Port prices rose slightly this week, with an increase of about 50 yuan / ton. Affected by domestic production restriction policies, some traders are reluctant to sell. Recently, local coke prices have risen all the way, and the price advantage of imported coke has begun to show. Recently, the market inquiry atmosphere is relatively strong.

 

3、 Future forecast

 

According to the business association, at present, there are more limited production areas in China, and the local supply of coke in East China is in a serious tense situation. With the further expansion of supply gap, the coke demand of downstream steel plants is just high and stable. However, due to the high cost pressure of both iron ore and coke in the near future, the steel plant may enter a high consolidation trend in the short term. It is expected that the coke price will be stronger in the future and stronger in the fourth round The range of prices will be further increased. With the implementation of production restriction in place gradually, there is still a possibility of slight increase in subsequent prices.
