The price of the A500C reinforcement dropped below 55.800 rubles per ton - this is the minimum value in recent months. Only from the beginning of June, the metal fell by almost 2000 rubles per ton.
The main factor in the fall - weak demand in the markets of multi -apartment and individual housing construction. Developers suspend new projects so as not to overheat the market and maintain prices as part of project financing. But this leads to a decrease in the volume of purchases of reinforcement and cement, which, in turn, hits throughout the supply chain. Metallurgists, cement plants, contractors and suppliers of building materials suffer.
, in the context of stagnation of demand, the reduction in building materials reflects the risks of systemic slowdown in the industry. This already affects related sectors, and if the situation does not change, the consequences may be long -term.
