Price And Market Trend
Apr. 23, 2026
Last week (April 12 – April 19), the domestic high-carbon wire rod market showed a trend of weakness at first followed by stabilization. As the core raw material for the prestressed steel strand and steel wire, its price fluctuations directly affect production operations and product quotations, and are related to the rights and interests of customers.
A brief analysis of the price fluctuations of wire rod is as follows.
I. Market Overview
The mainstream quoted price of domestic high-carbon wire rod stood at 3,850–3,950 RMB per ton, representing a slight drop of 20–30 RMB from the previous week, with a very narrow decline range.
Overall prices operated steadily without major fluctuations, in line with the normal fluctuation pattern at the early stage of the peak season, and no abnormal volatility occurred.
II. Supply, Demand and Inventory
Industry demand presented obvious divergence:
- Rigid demand in infrastructure continued to be released, providing stable support to the market;
- Demand in the real estate sector remained weak, and downstream procurement was dominated by a purchase-as-needed, small-volume restocking approach, resulting in muted trading sentiment.
Prices were influenced by a combination of factors. Prices of key raw materials such as iron ore and coke ran at low levels last week, delivering stable cost-side support. Policies including environmental protection regulations and crude steel output controls remained consistent with no major adjustments, leaving little upward momentum for prices in the short term.
III. Reasonable Recommendations
All market participants are advised to stay rational, avoid blindly chasing highs or excessive pessimism, and respond flexibly based on their own conditions.
Our factory will continue to control the rhythm of raw material procurement, secure high-quality supply, strictly control production losses, and ensure on-time order delivery. Meanwhile, customers are recommended to take a rational view of price fluctuations and arrange purchases reasonably according to their own project progress, so as to avoid blind stockpiling.
