Prediction and analysis of China’s iron ore supply and demand situation in 2013

At the end of 2012, the iron ore price trend which is closely related to domestic crude steel production capacity, become the main factors to predict the price of steel in 2013 once again in China.

In 2013, at least 70million tons of ore supply will be added at the international market. This also means that the years of the unbalanced moment for the supply and demand at iron ore market has been in the past. The situation of supply and demand in the iron ore market will be improved greatly; overall prices will be rational regression.

This is the long-awaited situation, though it needs a long time to be perfect process. It will have a positive effect on the stability of steel market price fluctuation. The west route of the new commodity spot electronic trading platform, senior researcher Qiu Yuecheng told this reporter that iron ore accounted for the largest part at the cost of raw materials in steel, the balance of iron ore supply and demand is the basis of the stability of steel price.

According to forecast of the Planning Institute of metallurgical industry, China’s steel demand will reach 666 million tons, year-on-year growth of 4.1%, and crude steel production will reach 746 million tons, an increase of 4.2% in 2013; and the demand of iron ore end products will reach 111 0 million tons, year-on-year growth of 4%, of which imports of ore demand is still more than 60%, will reach 760 million tons in 2013.

Imported ore inventory declined

With steel demand, seasonal characteristics and ore supply seasonal factors, in October and November of 2012, imported ore inventory rapidly declined while China’s crude steel production maintained a relatively low and stable situation causes.

No increase in the volume of steel in market while steel prices fell and iron ore price skyrocketed. Jia Liangqun, industry analysts who has a relatively optimistic expectations for the iron ore market, thought that because of the fears of the market risk, merchants was not positive for imported goods. Most domestic port ore inventory began to decline.

According to the west of the Shinkansen commodity spot electronic trading platform monitoring data show, iron ore prices in Hebei raised significantly, by 40 Yuan / ton in Feb,2013. Imported ore prices also raised continuously, wherein, 63.5% India fine ore price at $125 / ton, 62% grade’s iron ore price index for the 124.5 U.S. dollars / ton.

From a certain extent, this change in ore price formation cost pushed steel prices up in the off-season. This is a very unusual phenomenon.

THE LESSEN OF MINING MACHINERY IMPORT AND EXPORT TRADE DEFICIT IS MORE AND MORE CLEAR IN CHINA

Till now,the domestic market of mining machinery product still dominates in china. In 2005, 95% products were sold in the domestic market while 4.16% products were sold in the oversea market. But the export trend of mining machinery will enlarge the volume of exports, but the amounts of import will be reduced. About 700 million yuan or higher is expected for the total amount of exports in mining machinery industry in china. The lessen of mining machinery import and export trade deficit will be more and more clear.

Since 1970s, all advanced technologies have been introduced from other countries into mining machinery industry in china. The various cooperation with foreign merchant on the imported machines strengthen Chinese merchant’ understanding to the foreign technology. They make further improvement on the basis of understanding. This leads to independent intellectual property rights on some products in the field of mining machinery.
They can compete with advanced countries in the international market and can be the winner with some advantages. Also, government policy enhances their competition ability.

The reasons for the shrinking of the amounts of import is not only because the technological progress of mining machinery in china, but also because of the adjustment of china’ import policy. In national medium and long-term science and technology development plan(2006~2020), it is clearly to point that introducing,digestion,intake and innovation are inevitable process for the science development in china.  And government give supports from many aspects. In opinions on speeding up the revitalization of the equipment manufacturing industry, some tasks are pointed out to develop mining machinery industry. The import tax was adjusted as well.

All these policies influence the import directly or indirectly.

INNOVATION：THE ONLY WAY FOR MINING EQUIPMENT IN 2013

Due to the economy recession around the world, both domestic demand and oversea market demand for the mineral equipment shrank in china in 2012. This led to stagnation on the mineral equipment development.according to the statistic, industrial value of gross output was 901.17 million yuan in the mining machinery industry in Jan.to Sept.,2012. The completed sale-vale was 871.62 million yuan and the export delivery value was 530.28 million yuan in this industry. This three data were the lowest in recent years.

In this year, macro economy may have a little better than last year in china. The speed of export will continue tardiness and unfavorable factors from all aspects can not be avoided. The overall situation is that:the procurement cost will increase,the pressure of financial cost will reduce and the labor cost will increase steadily. The most dangerous thing is the over expansion of product capacity and the large stock.

The high speed of growth in mining machinery industry has turned to intermediate speed growth in 2013. This trend will go further. Facing such situation, companies of mining machinery should not sit there to wait for a better market or help from government. They should change themselves and improve company’s innovations instead of simple imitation production.
