Market outlook forecast
The next two months are the off-season of holidays. It is expected that most manufacturers will have holidays in mid-January. Downstream demand will gradually weaken, and market purchases and sales will decline. The market gradually recovered after mid-February. As far as the current situation is concerned, as the Spring Festival holiday approaches, manufacturers’ inventories will increase, and manufacturers’ prices may be slightly adjusted downwards, mainly by reducing inventory. In this way, the inventory of production enterprises during the Spring Festival will play a certain buffer effect.
