The futures steel prices have entered a narrow range adjustment phase and are continuing to digest the previous gains. The spot market performance was relatively stable, and there was no significant follow-up increase. The price rebound on the market led to a narrowing of the basis. The carry trade is currently unable to proceed, and some316L stainless steel sheet merchants have chosen to sell at the opportune moment.

The rebound in the 316L stainless steel sheet market is mainly driven by external factors and has generally improved. However, the weak balance situation is still continuing. According to the data from key steel enterprises of the China Iron and Steel Association in early July, the316L stainless steel sheet industry shows a situation of slight production reduction at the smelting end, significant contraction at the rolling end, and accumulation of factory inventories during the off-season. On the supply side， the overall production of blast furnaces remains resilient； however， the daily output of steel has dropped significantly on a month-on-month basis， mainly due to the sluggish demand in the cooling-off period of high temperatures and the concentrated maintenance of the rolling lines of316L stainless steel sheet factories， as well as enterprises' active reduction of316L stainless steel sheet output to alleviate the pressure of losses.
