Future forecast: in the near future, the Chinese market still maintains a regional trend, some air head devices in the southwest are stopped for maintenance, and the supply side is expected to weaken. In addition, the overall supply pressure in Ningxia and the southern line is not great at present. To a certain extent, it supports the trend of market prices in the region, but other regions fluctuate under the influence of weak demand, and the overall profit performance of the downstream market is general at present. The ability of operators to accept the supply of high-priced goods is limited, which also restrains the increase of market prices to a certain extent. at present, although the futures market has rebounded, the boost to the market is relatively limited, and the regional trend may continue in the short term, but in the later stage, it is necessary to pay close attention to the operation of air head devices in the southwest and the start-up of traditional downstream demand affected by seasonal factors.
