China Core Wire Price Forecast for Next Month
As the raw material prices showed a downward trend before the holiday, the cored wire market gradually lowered its price along with the raw materials after the May Day holiday. After the holiday, the market resumed, and the purchase volume of the cored wire market was flat. Therefore, the cored wire companies also maintained a cautious wait-and-see attitude towards raw materials and purchased on demand. Based on the current situation of the upstream and downstream markets, the weak demand will continue to be transmitted to the raw material side, thereby suppressing the cost price of cored wire. It is expected that the mainstream cored wire will still be mainly downward in the later period.
