Thermal coal price stability. In the case of the current high inflationary pressures, the state-owned key coal contract monitoring, the market is insured coal and other factors, limited supply, so large ore prices have been stable, the price adjustment will is not strong. SMEs take the goods is a relatively flexible, but there is no support for the environment, coal prices have been high in the case of continued upward or lack of support, so the pit is relatively stable market price. Another recently been mine, around the price of safety investigation, many coal production declined to some extent in the current price of coal has played a certain support. Integrated current situation is expected to pit this summer, is difficult to have changed significantly.
Price of coking coal market as a whole remained stable. Recent downstream steel spot prices rebounded slightly, but overall demand is still good, poor turnover, steel chain tension and restricted funds weaker sales, procurement of raw materials is also more cautious. Independent coking plant product prices have not come down significantly, but the restricted sales pressure, the intensity is still very limited production. Downstream market downturn, companies around the coking coal is also under take the goods, inventory accumulation to varying degrees, but the aggregate is not, can not impact on coal prices, the market price of coking coal around or continue to maintain stability. The current downstream market of the late August there is a strong rebound is expected to protect the housing problem and gradually pull effect of accelerated crack appeared in the third quarter is likely to be focused on the security room and then start the period of its coking coal for steel pull effect will become more obvious manifestation of out. Coupled with high coal demand in August, coal shipments into the wash will be the impact of various aspects, supply will decline, so the next month out of the coking coal market downturn may continue for months.
Anthracite price stability. Present downstream of urea, methanol prices continue upward, so the current lump anthracite companies take the goods to normal, pre-inventory is gradually digested, especially in the resource block, demand is strong. As the downstream market for anthracite coal market has been supported by many key enterprises in Shanxi Province lump coal prices have been a lot lower than the market, so prices started to compensatory growth in the near future, the range of 30-60 yuan / ton range. From the current situation, short-term anthracite coal prices have to see signs of decline, while in October the market will enter the traditional peak season of anthracite, or hard coal prices will easily rise, fall is unlikely, so the price of coal this year There may be high throughout the year continues.
PCI coal market price temporarily stable. The current low profitability of the downstream steel mills, more cautious on the procurement of raw materials, restricted by the downturn in the downstream market, injection coal to take the goods from the previous month decline, particularly in the South to accept the goods the customer will decline significantly, the market began to pressure injection coal, the price being more stable.
