Steel rebar futures fell below CNY 3,060 per ton, reaching their lowest level in four months as narrowing profit margins for steel mills and seasonal demand weakness weighed on prices. Industry data showed profitability among Chinese steel mills declined to about 51% in the latest week, down 4.8 percentage points from the previous week and 8.2 percentage points from a year earlier. The margin squeeze followed a fatal coal-mining accident in Shanxi last month, which drove up coke prices and encouraged mills to use more medium-to-high-grade iron ore to improve efficiency. Meanwhile, crude steel production in the world’s largest producer continued to weaken amid the prolonged downturn in the property sector, with May output falling 2.7% year-on-year to 84.35 million tons.
