## Market Analysis
China steel prices ticked up across key categories on 2026-08-25, driven by a combination of rising input costs and supportive policy developments. Cold-rolled coil surged +1.0% (+¥40/t), outperforming other products as mill pricing adjustments and limited inventory supported the segment. The price movement comes after Tangshan Donghua increased its cold-rolled base material price by ¥20/t on 24 August, signaling continued cost pressure transmission downstream (来源:lange, 2026-08-24).
On the cost side, the second round of coke price increases has officially taken effect — wet-quenched coke up ¥100/t and dry-quenched coke up ¥110/t — with Hebei and Tianjin steel mills already accepting the new pricing (来源:mysteel, 2027-01-01). This cost escalation provides fundamental support for steel prices and limits downside risk in the near term. Meanwhile, the August steel circulation PMI rose 1.3 percentage points to 47.4%, indicating that although the market remains in contraction territory, the pace of decline is slowing and a seasonal uptick may be emerging (来源:lange, 2026-08-25).
A significant positive signal for overseas procurement came from Vietnam, where the Ministry of Industry and Trade lowered the anti-dumping duty on Chinese H-section steel from 13.38% to 6.78% in its third periodic review (来源:mysteel, 2027-09-05). This ~50% reduction in tariff burden improves cost competitiveness for Chinese H-beam exporters to Vietnam and could stimulate demand in this important Southeast Asian market. Additionally, US trade tensions and proposed tariff hikes on Canadian steel (up to 50% from January 2027) may indirectly redirect global trade flows, potentially increasing Chinese steel availability in alternative markets (来源:mysteel, 2027-01-01).
## Procurement Advice
• **Immediate Purchase (Urgent Orders):** For buyers requiring hot-rolled coil or medium plate in the short term, the current price environment offers moderate opportunity. The coke cost increase provides a price floor, making sharp corrections less likely. However, the rebar market remains flat, suggesting weak immediate demand — consider locking in HRC and MPL orders now before further cost-driven increases. The Vietnam anti-dumping rate cut also presents an opportunity to negotiate competitive H-beam prices for Southeast Asian projects.
• **Stocking (Strategic Procurement):** Buyers planning ahead-of-season stockpiling should monitor the improving PMI trend and cost-side support. Cold-rolled coil strength (+1.0%) suggests mills have pricing confidence — consider partial positioning now rather than waiting for potential further roll-up. The current 1 USD = 6.7387 CNY exchange rate remains favorable for USD-based procurement. Diversify order placement across HRC, CRC, and MPL to hedge against product-specific volatility.
