For the future market trends, Chang Junting thinks, in the fourth quarter imported wood pulp spot market in the traditional season, supply and demand face continuous game, although wood pulp spot cost is still high, but the downstream mill or continue to improve the profit structure, superposition of wood pulp new capacity stability release the impact of the market, so in the fourth quarter of pulp prices or after Yang suppression situation, amplitude is relatively limited.
