  • Steel Imports Report: China May 2020 Background China Was the World’S Eight Largest Steel Importer in 2018
    Steel Imports Report: China May 2020 Background China was the world’s eight largest steel importer in 2018. In 2019, China imported 15.3 million metric tons of steel, an 8 percent increase Quick Facts: from 14.2 million metric tons in 2018. China’s imports represented ● Imported 15.3 million about 4 percent of all steel imported globally in 2019 (according to metric tons in 2019 available data). The volume of China’s 2019 steel imports was about 60 percent that of the world’s largest importer, the United States. In value ● 30.9% decline in steel terms, steel represented under one percent of the total goods imported imports since 2009 into China in 2019. ● 2019 import volume up In 2019, China imported steel from over 80 countries and territories. 8.2% and import value The ten countries highlighted in the map below represent the top down 12% since 2018 import sources for China’s imports of steel, with each sending more ● Import penetration down from 1.63% in 2018 to 1.62% in 2019 ● Top three import sources: Japan, South Korea, Taiwan ● Largest producers: China Baowu Group, HBIS Group and Shagang Group 1 Steel Imports Report: China Steel Trade Balance 35.0 In 2005, China’s steel exports and China's Trade in Steel Mill Products, Quarterly, imports were virtually in balance. Since 30.0 Millions of Metric Tons then, with the exception of 2009, China’s Exports exports have increased dramatically, 25.0 Imports growing 169.7 percent between 2009 and 2019. During the same period, China’s 20.0 imports have trended downwards, and decreased by 30.9 percent.

  • China's Steel Sector
    02 December 2010 HONG KONG/CHINA EQUITY Investment Research Private Circulation Only Ng Sem Guan, CFA +60 (3) 9207 7678 [email protected] China’s Steel Sector Bright Spots in the New Landscape As China‘s steel sector enters a new era of consolidation, we think it is time for a revisit. We are initiating coverage with an OVERWEIGHT rating driven by the following factors: (i) We expect the Chinese government to stick to the magic “8%” GDP growth target after a near-unbroken record in the past three decades and given an impending crucial leadership change in 2012. (ii) The robust GDP growth target suggests continued government spending in FAIs to balance the slowdown in the property markets in the coastal region, hence spurring demand in long steel products. Meanwhile, flat producers of specialised steel may benefit from consumption upgrading. (iii) The multi-fold increase in iron ore and coking coal prices suggest that it is time for prices to stabilise; yet there is limited downside in view of higher production cost in China and a possible delay in opening new mines. Going forward, the market may eventually accept current selling prices, which still have slight upside potential. (iv) The new landscape suggests that steel mills may return to mid-cycle ROEs similar to that in 2006, which translate into compelling valuations, especially after the recent market-wide correction.
