Asian stocks saw mixed results on November 20, 2025. While tech shares boosted some markets, China’s A-share indices closed lower. The stainless steel market followed this downward trend.
Nickel prices joined the decline. LME nickel fell significantly. The stainless steel futures contract broke below the 12,300 yuan support level. It closed at 12,285 yuan/ton, down 0.41%.
Spot Market Prices Fall Amid Weak Demand
Falling futures prices forced the physical market lower.
304 cold-rolled coil prices dropped rapidly. Delong material fell to 12,150-12,180 yuan/ton base.
304 hot-rolled coil saw limited interest. Sellers offered 20-30 yuan/ton discounts with little effect.
201 materials showed similar weakness. Both hot and cold-rolled grades faced continued price pressure.
This market volatility creates both challenges and opportunities. For a Stainless Steel tubing company like VertexFlowtubes, it allows strategic material sourcing at competitive prices.
