　　業(yè)內(nèi)人士指出，今年上半年鐵礦石談判、奧運(yùn)行情以及災(zāi)后重建行情，令經(jīng)銷商對(duì)市場(chǎng)估計(jì)過于樂觀并大量囤貨，從而推動(dòng)鋼材價(jià)格一路猛漲。"當(dāng)時(shí)，經(jīng)銷商只需要把鋼材存在庫房，即便不銷售，鋼材價(jià)格的一路上漲也能讓人感覺到財(cái)富的增長(zhǎng)。"成都龍?zhí)┙饘儆邢挢?zé)任公司總經(jīng)理李健說。但也有人士感到情況不妙。成都量力鋼材市場(chǎng)同業(yè)公會(huì)在8月召開緊急會(huì)議，建議經(jīng)銷商盡量降低庫存。隨后，該協(xié)會(huì)近千家鋼材經(jīng)銷商避免掉更大幅度的虧損，但部分經(jīng)銷商虧損也超過百萬之巨。

Why steel prices plummet?

Wu's article, which has studied the steel market for a long time, said that this is due to the erroneous judgment of the businessmen in the form. "Merchants have bet on a large amount of capital on the goods. The market of their judgment has not really stimulated the market demand, and the bubble has been expanding continuously.

In September, the global financial crisis broke out, and finally the price of bubbles was plunged.

　　一位鋼材經(jīng)銷商稱，鋼材價(jià)格暴跌，部分鋼廠也因此停產(chǎn)，"因?yàn)殍F礦石價(jià)格幾乎跌到了成本紅線，鋼鐵廠不會(huì)虧本經(jīng)營(yíng)。而市場(chǎng)上，由于大量囤貨卻沒有多少可消化的渠道，經(jīng)銷商也在繼續(xù)降低庫存。"這正是當(dāng)下經(jīng)銷商們應(yīng)對(duì)鋼鐵市場(chǎng)"寒冬"的普遍做法。上述經(jīng)銷商稱，現(xiàn)在成都多數(shù)鋼材經(jīng)銷商基本是零庫存。

Next year, the demand for steel products in Sichuan will reach 67 million tons. In the past year, the demand for steel products in Sichuan will be about 6 million tons per year.

This includes demand for railways, highways and the housing market, while the demand for steel for post disaster reconstruction will continue to increase.

　　據(jù)了解，現(xiàn)在鋼材經(jīng)銷商基本都已空倉，這意味著流動(dòng)資金都套現(xiàn)出來。省鋼材流通協(xié)會(huì)會(huì)長(zhǎng)李健判斷，未來鋼鐵價(jià)格在需求拉動(dòng)下將穩(wěn)步回升，現(xiàn)在已有經(jīng)銷商考慮逐步囤貨，但"對(duì)于當(dāng)下的經(jīng)銷商們而言，是否放量進(jìn)貨還在考慮之中"。公開數(shù)據(jù)顯示，在經(jīng)歷了兩個(gè)月的暴跌之后，目前鋼材價(jià)格已經(jīng)有所回暖，各類鋼材價(jià)格距前期低點(diǎn)平均漲幅超過1000元/噸。"市場(chǎng)信心正在回暖。"李健說。
