Iron oxide industry: to explore market demand

adhere to the bottom line thinking, the implementation of the "six stable" "six insurance"the beginning of the outbreak at the beginning of this year, iron oxide production enterprises press the "pause key" caused a heavy blow to the enterprise, pleased that the national iron oxide enterprises have gradually started to resume work from mid-February, so far the rate of resumption of work has reached more than 90%The safe "green production key" is pressed to resume productionThis is June 18 reporter from the China Coating Industry Association iron oxide industry branch secretariat received informationeconomic benefits are not optimistic
China Coating Industry Association iron oxide industry branch secretary Lin Zhihua told reporters that before May has been controlled the epidemic, the overall economic situation of the industry has not hurt, but the market supply and demand of iron oxide there is still uncertainty, the market and prices have some fluctuations, especially the continued low price of products and unit costs, resulting in the industry-wide economic benefits are not optimisticlin Zhihua,, said that economic activity was expected to recover compensatoryly, and that the expected retaliatory consumption did not occurAccording to the industry's main enterprises and foreign trade companies reflect that in March to April, the iron oxide market in foreign trade sales have a significant increase in the trendBut the spread of the epidemic in many regions abroad and the recent anti-racial discrimination protests in the United States have led to a sharp drop in orders between May and June, forcing companies to adjust production cuts and limit productionLin Zhihua pointed out that the biggest problem facing enterprises is orders and cash flow, enterprises resume production after the market problems followedNon-rework losses are labor, equipment depreciation, customer churnAfter the resumption of work, faced with few orders or even no orders, production brought inventory backlog, poor turnover, and finally debt-ridden stateIn the outbreak, many industry business leaders have said that this year or to "stabilize" mainly, more wait and see less impulse, optimistic about making a decisionPrice increases do not hoard goods, price reduction only hoard, reserves are not much, prudent to keep the capital chainAccording to the industry's main enterprise entrepreneurs forecast that the iron oxide market in the third quarter of this year will not have much expectations, the first three quarters of this year's total forecast of about 450,000 tons of production in the same period last year fell by 3 to 5%the short-term downward pressure is difficult to change
Lin Zhihua pointed out that at present, the domestic epidemic prevention and control results continue to appear, to help the resumption of production and recovery of the progress of the market to accelerate, iron oxide industry economy is also the normal production and living order is also restored, iron oxide industry a number of enterprises to achieve orderly operation, can effectively protect the domestic and foreign market supply demand the current situation is gradually returning to normal, but for most parts of the world, the headwinds caused by the outbreak are strengthening, due to many governments to take closure, shutdown, isolation and other measures, basically stopped the production of essentials outside economic activities, their own economy stalled, resulting in the contraction of international trade, most of the industry sudden "shock" led to the temporary disruption of the global supply chain or even short-term interruption, while leading to a sharp decline in global demand, the duration of the global epidemic and the negative impact of the project may be more than expected Lin Zhihua can't help saying that the iron oxide industry will look particularly pale in 2020 Lin Zhihua told reporters that the current global economy has fallen into recession, the industry is facing the most serious difficulties and challenges in history The cost comparative advantage of iron oxide manufacturing industry is declining, competitiveness is also declining, the overall impact of this year's earnings, will be more strongly felt the economic consequences of the outbreak lin Zhihua, , pointed out that the current industry's "low-end surplus, high-end shortage" is a long-standing structural contradiction, the traditional product structure optimization, backward capacity elimination, excess capacity reduction task is still very difficult, effective supply and effective demand can not effectively match the short board is increasingly prominent, on the other hand, trade protectionism, geopolitical conflicts, the new crown pneumonia epidemic and a series of uncertainties interwoven, making the industry's downward economic pressure difficult to change in the short term to steady and steady progress, Lin Zhihua said that from today's environmental trends, economic data and capital markets, the recession has become an inevitable problem At this time, the domestic is facing economic transformation, the external face more and more frequent barriers to competition, the real enterprise first of all to protect to live This year the country did not put forward GTP growth quantitative indicators, does not mean that we do not attach importance to economic growth, what we are thinking is that growth, although there are no indicators, the heart should have goals Lin Zhihua stressed that it is imperative for us to stabilize and upgrade the industrial chain, supply chain, seize strategic opportunities to expand domestic demand, build a new development pattern of domestic and international double-cycle mutual promotion, and fully develop market demand Iron oxide economic recovery and development, the implementation of the "six stability" and "six guarantee" work is our focus and bottom line, is to stabilize the iron oxide economy of the basic disk task, with "six guarantees" can "six stability" in order to ensure stability, stability and progress Lin Zhihua pointed out that the iron oxide industry association will support and assist enterprises to focus on the "six stability", "six insurance", "employment" is the first focus of economic development, but also the first concern of people's livelihood, occupation is "the head of the rice bowl", rice bowl head no, eat become a problem Lin Zhihua said that by the impact of the global epidemic, the world economy is in serious recession, the industrial chain supply chain cycle is blocked, international trade investment shrinks, for enterprises, it means that "orders" are sharply reduced, not even orders, especially international orders, so, the protection of the "industry chain supply chain" work is a large number of difficult, in the process of epidemic prevention and control, the grass-roots "epidemic war" is played a vital role, the grass-roots operation of "people's war", the formation of the "people's war" prevention and control of the epidemic and the resumption of work and resumption of production and resumption of the two fronts at the same time to fight, the same to ensure the safety and stability of the work of enterprises Lin Zhihua repeatedly stressed that "in the face of severe and complex international epidemics and the world economic situation, we should adhere to the bottom line thinking, implement the "six stability" "six guarantees", do a long time to deal with changes in the external environment of the ideological preparation and work preparation, to explore market demand, to ensure the safe and stable operation of the industry."
