Updated to Q2 2019
Supply is expected to remain healthy during Q2, but could balance out if demand increases. European supply conditions will also be dependent on whether demand in China improves. If sellers’ margins improve overseas, then the European market could see less competitive imports, leading to a more balanced supply picture.
Sellers expect demand to improve in line as is typical for Q2, but not to the same extent as last year. Traditionally, demand increases in Q2, but expectations are more conservative given the macroeconomic uncertainties emanating throughout the market.
