DAILY: Coking Enterprises in SW China to Raise Price by 50 Yuan On September 21, coking enterprises in Southwest China planned to raise price by 50 yuan in the second half of this month, a cumulative growth of 100 yuan in September, which was still under negotiation. Steel mills were reluctant to accept another 50-yuan hike given that price of raw material was high while steel market only took slim margin. Currently, price of coke (F.c 85%) from leading steel mills in Guizhou is stable at 2060 yuan/t (dry basis, delivered to factory); price of coke (F.c 83%) from leading steel mills in Yunnan stays at 2080 yuan/t (in cash, dry basis, delivered to factory). Last week, coking enterprises in North, East China put forward the third round of 50-yuan increase, to which most steel mills did not give clear response yet. It�¢??s expected to be completed this week. Although it�¢??s said that several steel mills in Yunnan might raise the price by 50 yuan in the second half of this month (30 yuan in the first half of September), most coking plants refused that and insisted on a cumulative growth of 100 yuan this month. This price hike was still under negotiation. Link: Market price of Kunming Metcoke on Sep 21,20(new) Link: Market price of Guiyang Metcoke on Sep 21,20(new)
