Save Cold and Hot Rolled Steel Price Ratio

冷軋鋼板一般用於汽車、家電等產品，而熱軋鋼板主要用於橋樑、鐵路、建築等領域。二者價格比值大致可以用來判斷鋼鐵需求主要來自哪些產業。

當比值越大，代表鋼鐵需求主要來自消費品用鋼需求（汽車、家電），當比值越小，代表鋼鐵需求主要來自大型建設。

Save China Steel Cycle

At the beginning of a steel cycle, new orders and production increase, inventory decreases. When demand from construction and manufacturing slows down, steel cycle comes close to an end, during which steel production decreases and inventory rises.

There have been 5 steel cycles since 2006, except when in 2019, iron ore was undersupplied due to natural disasters in Brazil and Australia, and inventory and production of steel went down because of shortage of raw material.

Save Steel Industry Finished Goods and Raw Material Inventory

When demand's strong:
Raw material inventory rises; finished goods inventory declines. Steel price and iron ore price both rise; the quotient (steel billet/iron ore) decreases.

When demand's weak:
Raw material inventory declines; finished goods inventory increases. Steel billet / iron ore price quotient increases.

Exceptions:
1. Reform on the supply side: steel price jumps in 2017
2. Shortage of iron ore: both inventories drop in 2019
