The supply of rebar continued to shrink at a low level, supporting the steel price, but the demand was also weak. The fundamentals did not improve under the situation of weak supply and demand.

Related Charts - The section includes charts on steel inventory (rebar and hot - rolled coil inventory, including weekly changes and total inventory), iron ore inventory (national 45 - port inventory, 247 - steel - mill inventory, etc.), and steel - mill production (blast - furnace start - up rate, capacity utilization rate, independent electric - furnace start - up rate, etc.) [16][21][30] 5. Market Outlook - Rebar: The supply and demand continued to weaken. The weekly production of rebar decreased by 10.53 tons, and the demand decreased by 13.89 tons.
