Steel prices rise on the exchange
Today's steel price for January 2024 delivery on the Shanghai Stock Exchange increased by 4 yuan to 3,746 yuan/ton.
Iron ore futures for January 2024 delivery on China's Dalian Commodity Exchange (DCE) also rose 2.51% to 919.5 yuan ($125.63) a tonne, the highest since March 17.
Domestically, steel prices have remained unchanged for two months after the 19th price reduction on September 7.
Kyoei Steel Vietnam reduced the price of CB240 coil steel by VND200,000/ton to VND13.46 million/ton. D10 CB300 steel remained unchanged at VND13.71 million/ton.
Pomina Steel also decreased by VND110,000/ton for CB240 coil steel to VND13.48 million/ton, and rebar steel at VND14.38 million/ton.
Thus, since the beginning of the year, domestic construction steel prices have fallen sharply 19 times in a row. After these 19 sessions of decline, steel prices have “bottomed out” at their lowest level in the past 3 years.
The Vietnam Steel Association (VSA) said that the reason for the continuous decline in domestic steel prices is due to slow consumption demand. The slow consumption of construction steel is due to the gloomy real estate market and the lack of improvement in public investment. Not only that, domestic steel enterprises also have to compete with cheap steel from China as this country continuously lowers its steel export prices.
With this current situation, VSA predicts that the decline in steel prices will not stop from now until the end of the year.
