Supply:

Foreign countries: Rainfall weather in foreign production areas has eased, and some areas have begun to increase in a narrow range. A few areas still have the impact of rainfall, and raw material prices fluctuate within a narrow range.

China: Weather conditions in China's production areas have returned to normal, and raw material output has also gradually recovered. Cutting has been stopped in China's Yunnan production areas, and the price of raw material glue has not yet been available.

Demand: At present, the overall market performance of all-steel tires is flat, with a small amount of goods being shipped mainly. The overall shipment performance of the southern market is better than that of the northern region. Agents have sufficient inventory and are subject to shipping pressure. Some agents mainly distribute goods. The payment of arrears is slow and the purchase funds are limited. Under the combined bearish mentality, we currently maintain a wait-and-see situation and wait for guidance from low-price sources in the market.

market outlook

Judging from the current supply port situation, the recent decline in output in China's production areas is in conflict with the expectation of a gradual increase in output in overseas production areas at the end of the rainy season. The purchase price of raw materials is basically in a narrow range of fluctuations, and upstream production profits are still At a relatively low level, there is limited room for loosening raw material costs. Continuous purchases of goods on the demand-side market are showing signs of fatigue. The production and sales pressure of all-steel tire companies has become prominent, and production cuts have increased, which in turn suppresses their sentiment on raw material procurement. Expectations for improving transactions in the spot market are limited, and the continued decline in port inventories has been suppressed. On the whole, if there is no obvious long-short stimulus on the supply and demand sides of the Tianjiao market, the Tianjiao market will be weak in driving upward and downward, and it is expected that most of the activities will continue to fluctuate.
