8月份,国内市场呈现多年没有过的钢铁生产增速回落,钢材、钢坯出口大幅增加,市场资源供给量同比下降6%的罕见现象。但受全国工业增长趋缓、社会资金紧张、奥运环保安全限制以及市场预期信心下降等诸多因素影响,国内钢材市场价格明显回落。国际钢材市场受需求淡季和亚洲市场价格下跌影响,板材价格开始小幅下滑。 In August, the domestic market showed a drop in the growth rate of steel production that had not been enjoyed for many years. The export of steel products and billets increased sharply, and the supply of market resources dropped by 6% YoY on a rare occasion. However, due to the slowdown of industrial growth in the country, the shortage of social funds, the limitation of environmental protection and safety of the Olympic Games and the decline in market expectations, the market price of domestic steel products dropped significantly. Affected by the low demand season and the falling Asian market prices, the international steel market started to decline slightly.
