Coal prices rose nearly 50% in a month, and various pushers pushed coal prices up.

Recently, the country has cooled sharply, and the “Millennium Extreme Cold” has brought psychological pressure to many large coal users. They have stored coal in advance, and other reasons have caused coal prices to continue to rise. Because of the excessive increase in the short-term, it was nicknamed “Coal Super Crazy” by netizens. An interview with the Economic Herald reporter learned that "coal super crazy" will continue for some time.

A month's increase of nearly 50%

On the evening of the 24th, the temperature in Jinan fell below 10 °C. The Jinan citizen wished that Ms. Zhu would warm the stove. Looking at the burning honeycomb coal, Ms. Zhu sighed: "I thought of the price increase, but I didn't expect to go up so much."

Ms. Zhu told the reporter that every year she buys privately produced honeycomb coal for heating and cooking. On the 22nd, she purchased a batch of honeycomb coal at a price of 0.7 yuan per piece, more than 1,300 tons per ton, 900 yuan a ton, and state-owned coal. The price of the store (970 yuan a ton) is not much different. At the beginning of September, she had bought the same person's honeycomb coal. At that time, the price of one ton was a little more than 600 yuan.

For when to start the price increase, Zhang Guangliang, who gave Ms. Zhu a honeycomb, was clear. "It’s half a month ago, one price a day. Now, I don’t dare to bid for the customer’s order. I can only call the customer before the delivery, and ask if I want it.” Zhang Guangliang said that the place where he raised the coal rose. The price is up.

In a private coal yard in Zhangcun City, the reporter reported that the large coal yard had only one pile of coal in the middle. When the reporter reported the price of coal as a customer, He Baolin, the person in charge, said that the price increase is now crazy, one price a day. "Anthracite, less than 1600 yuan per ton can not get down, not necessarily in stock. Those slightly burning coal, the lowest price of 1380 yuan per ton. And I can not guarantee that today's offer is the future transaction price, only I can give you a quote when you can wait."

According to He Baolin, the coal in this coal yard is mostly anthracite from Shanxi Yangquan and bituminous coal from Inner Mongolia. “Before the National Day, Baotou’s bituminous coal was only 900 yuan per ton, and it has now risen to more than 1,300 yuan. Yangquan’s anthracite coal is not to mention, from less than 1,000 yuan per ton before the festival, soaring to the current 1,600 yuan. ”

There is no price to buy coal
Even if the price increases, He Baolin did not make much money. According to He Baolin, today, it sells 1,300 yuan per ton, and tomorrow's purchase may be 1,300 yuan per ton. "And even if you have money, you can't buy coal. Because of the problem of capacity, coal can't get in, even if you come in a few cars, you can sell it on the same day, and you can't save it."

He Baolin pointed to his coal yard and said: "My coal yard can hold thousands of tons of coal. Now it is only over 100 tons. I can't buy it with money. These are the two cars that were imported yesterday. They are sold out. I don't know. The order can be delivered this afternoon."

There is money to buy coal, which has become the heart of many coal bosses.

At the same time, Li Zhenhe, the person in charge of the local coal mine of the local village coal mine and the coal in other provinces, said: "Now the raw coal in the village is 580 yuan a ton, which is the relationship between the acquaintances and the acquaintances. It is not necessarily possible to buy them." According to Li Zhenhe Introduction, the original coal in the Yucun Coal Mine can be obtained within 400 yuan, and there is no need to support the relationship. “It’s not necessary to talk about coal from other provinces. Now it’s not going to come.”

In the interview, Li Zhenhe’s cell phone kept ringing, except for coal. "I want a coal phone number of more than a dozen a day, but I don’t have it in my hands. I can only find someone to trust the coal in the village."

In addition to the rise in lump coal and raw coal, the price of coal powder in coal washing plants is also rising. According to the reporter, in August this year, the coal powder price of the coal washing plant was 240 yuan per ton, and now it is less than 400 yuan. That's it, the bosses of some private cellular coal plants are still buying with cash.

A variety of pushers push coal prices up
For the soaring coal price, the answers given by the parties are not the same.

Li Zhenhe believes that there are three main reasons for the increase in coal prices. The first is seasonal rise. At this time of the year, as the temperature is getting lower, the coal price will rise in a floating manner. Secondly, the price of the mining enterprise will increase. As the cost of coal mining increases year by year, the price of finished coal is bound to rise. Increasingly, the increase in fuel prices has led to an increase in transportation costs, which has also caused coal prices to rise to a certain extent. He also believes that some groups are not allowed to speculate with the above reasons.

The information that the reporter reported from the China Business Network also confirmed Li Zhenhe’s statement. The analysis data of China Business Network shows that the recent bad weather, port closure, ship rushing phenomenon, coupled with the early Daqin line maintenance, power plant inventory consumption is faster, the coastal power plant enthusiasm for coal purchase, the overall promotion of coal prices.

According to the analysis of China Business Network, the coal market has continued to rise in the near future, mainly due to the integration of coal resources and the tightness of individual coal types in Shanxi. At the same time, due to the "Millennium Extreme Cold", the Shanxi thermal coal market has risen by 30-50 yuan / ton since October. The price of thermal coal in the Qinhuangdao market has also risen for several weeks. Yesterday, Qinhuangdao’s 5,500-kilometer high-quality coal blending price was 745 yuan/ton, and the heat-generating 6,000-kilometer Datong excellent blending coal price was 825. Yuan / ton.

According to the reporter, the domestic coastal freight rates have risen sharply, driven by this round of coal demand. On the 20th, the coal freight rate of Qinhuangdao Port to Shanghai and Ningbo routes climbed to 73 yuan/ton, up by 25 yuan/ton from the previous cycle.

Song Zhichen, a researcher in the energy industry of China Investment Consulting, believes that there are also external factors in the current coal price increase.

He believes that the global coal price index released by Global Coal Network shows that the price of the three major thermal coal markets in Europe has risen to 98.99 US dollars / ton, close to the 100 yuan mark. Moreover, due to the influence of the “Millennium Extreme Cold”, the market expectation of rising coal prices this winter has increased. The above factors also play a certain role in promoting the rapid rise of domestic coal prices in the near future.

The information shows that both dealers and analysts believe that coal prices are expected to continue to rise in the future, but there is no accurate figure.
