International oil prices continued to fall, news negative market mentality. And downstream demand did not increase, mainly consumed inventory, the overall market trading atmosphere slightly light. In the early stage, the shutdown enterprises have been gradually restored, the market supply has increased, and the sales pressure has been increased. Down stream wait-and-see sentiment is strong, enter the market operation cautiously. Manufacturers did not improve shipment, inventory pressure gradually increased. Continuously reduce the price and give priority to shipment. The prices of some manufacturers have fallen below 3000 yuan / ton. At the end of the month, the market rebounded twice but failed, and then continued to fall. The main reason for its rebound failure is terminal demand. In September, with the arrival of autumn, the temperature gradually turned cool, and the terminal market was expected to increase. However, the demand this year was slower than that in previous years. There was no obvious change in the downstream demand. It was mainly to consume more inventory. Most of them were cautious, and the enthusiasm for entering the market was general. Due to the poor delivery situation and the gradual accumulation of inventory, manufacturers were forced to lower the price to stimulate downstream market entry. With the arrival of the double festival, the demand for inventory and inventory at the end of the month has weakened one after another.
