2012年一季度，中经钢铁产业景气指数为97.2点，较上季度下降2.0点。中经钢铁产业预警指数为66.7点，较上季度大幅下降30.0点，由正常的“绿灯区”进入偏冷的“浅蓝灯区”运行，并已接近过冷的“蓝灯区”临界点。这表明钢铁行业下行进入低谷期。

In the first quarter in 2012，In steel industry boom index of 97.2 points，Compared to the previous quarter fell 2.0 points。Steel industry in the early warning index of 66.7 points，Compared to the previous quarter plunged 30.0 points，From the normal“Green area”Into slants cold of“Shallow blue lights area”operation，And has been close to the cold“Blue lights area”Critical point。This suggests that the steel industry descending into the troughs。

　　上半年一季度钢铁产业运行受宏观经济形势影响使钢材消费增速减缓，季节因素影响北方施工建设，钢材需求和销售不旺价格低迷，钢铁业产品出厂价格同比下降7.5%，铁矿石煤炭等生产原料价格高位运行，导致钢铁业产量、特别是利润水平下降。

Steel industry in the first half quarter run by macroscopical economy influence make the steel consumption growth slows down，Seasonal factors influence the north construction，Steel demand and slack sales price slump，Steel products price 7.5% year-on-year drop，Iron ore and coal production material price highs，Lead to steel production、Especially profit decline。

　　一季度，房地产开发投资增幅同比回落，铁路、交通的固定资产投资完成量同比也有下降，钢材的主要下游行业需求难言乐观，钢铁产业在本季度工业产销增速继续放缓。

quarter，Investment in real estate development year-on-year growth fell back，railway、The traffic of the fixed asset investment amount up also have completed decline，The steel industry needs major downstream of last optimistic，Steel and iron industry in the quarter slowdown in industrial production and sales continue to grow faster。

　　二季度随天气转暖，工程建设进入施工旺季，钢材需求有所增长。日本震后汽车业全面恢复生产，随着日本国内钢材等原材料库存消耗，下半年有望提高粗钢焦煤等进口量，稳定亚太板块焦煤市场企稳运行。下半年国内为“稳增长”推出的一系列投资建设项目，如果项目顺利开展推进，有助于提高国内钢材水泥等产品需求，稳定当前不断下滑的钢材焦炭市场。

With warm weather in the second quarter，Engineering construction into construction peak season，Steel increased demand。After Japan automobile industry to restore full production，With the domestic steel products, raw material inventory consumption，The second half is expected to improve crude steel coking coal imports, etc，Asia Pacific plate coking coal stable market stabilising operation。Domestic for the second half of“Steady growth”Launched a series of investment project，If the project smoothly propulsion，Help to improve the domestic steel cement products demand，Stable current have been declining steel coke market。
