Core View - Overseas pulp and paper market has weak prosperity, with some enterprises having production transfer, reduction, or suspension. The support for imported pulp prices needs attention. In May, the shipment volume of softwood pulp from 20 major pulp - producing countries was 1.69 million tons, up 4.4% month - on - month and down 8.2% year - on - year. In July 2025, China's total pulp imports were 2.877 million tons, down 5.1% month - on - month and up 23.7% year - on - year [8]. - As of July 31, 2025, the weekly pulp inventory in major regions and ports decreased by 3.08% month - on - month. Only the inventories in Qingdao Port and Baoding increased. The overall shipment speed was stable. Most downstream paper mills' initial quotes were stable, and the boost to the demand side during the off - peak to peak season transition needs attention [8]. - The domestic market fundamentals have slightly improved. If the industry profit is further repaired, pulp still has room to rebound, but the overall space is limited without supply - side support [8].
