December 31, the Ministry of Finance and
the State Administration of Taxation jointly issued a notice, announced that
from January 1, 2015, the adjustment of export tax rebate rate products, which
explicitly proposed to abolish the boron steel export tax rebates. Although the
elimination of export tax rebate policy has long been known to market
expectations, but the "boron steel" unspoken rules are broken, the
export volume of more than 40% of steel will be affected, in the short term it will
still result in relatively large impac for the steel market, market mentality
will be severely affected, outlook bearish sentiment enriched. But long term,
abolish boron steel export tax rebates to encourage high value-added steel
finished to go out and improve the international image, it is quite beneficial
to the development of the domestic steel market.
Comprehensive look at the top, although
has entered into the New Year, but the dilemma faced by the steel market in the
short term is still more. Raw materials continue to fall, resulting in weakened
market cost of support; and the current steel production enthusiasm has failed
to reduce production is still increasing, the market supply pressure; coupled
with the overall economic situation is not how the domestic ideal, steel demand
difficult to change, the off-season under the effect of increasingly sluggish
showing the situation; therefore, in the case of strong demand for steel market
as a whole is weak, the January price or just continue down the main.
