This week, the Guangdong concrete market continued its weak operating pattern of stable prices, weak demand, and hindered cost transmission.
The upstream cement prices have risen for two consecutive rounds, but due to the multiple constraints of weak demand, payment pressure, and industry competition, the finished product prices are unable to keep up.
Although the concrete prices in the Guangdong region are at a national high, actual transactions are relatively weak, and the overall market trend is mainly characterized by a smooth transition.
The concrete market in Guangxi presents a pattern of upstream push up, local exploration and follow-up, and weak demand constraints.
Driven by a cost increase of 40 yuan/ton in cement prices across the region in early July, concrete prices in Nanning, Yulin, Chongzuo and other places saw a slight increase of 10 yuan/cubic meter at the beginning of this week.
However, due to the multiple pressures of sustained heavy rainfall, floods, and sluggish demand, the market as a whole has transitioned smoothly after the implementation of price increases, and there is still significant uncertainty in the subsequent trend.
