There is still no obvious change of pig iron for steel manufacture in this month
. Deals are almost stagnant due to the Spring Festival in this month, and heavy festival and watching atmosphere before the long festival . End-users still do not have strong demand for the pig iron . Most steel plants stop purchasing to watch the market, and few plants purchase on the need-basis . Such weak demand is far from pushing the development of pudding market . Besides, prices of raw materials have been consolidated for a long time . Prices are lack of sufficient support and push, so they are hard to improve . At present, following areas are performing such prices for L8—10: Tangshan—RMB3,270, Shanxi—RMB3,290, Anyang—3,500, Gansu—3,320, Baotou—3,050, Yunnan—3,200, Tieshui, Yunnan—3,220, all VAT included by cash payment .
