Financial Associated Press, September 17 (Xinhua) - the economic daily published a commentary saying that, from a practical point of view, the factors affecting the relationship between coal supply and demand are very complex. It is indeed difficult to completely solve the imbalance in the short term, but it can not shake the determination and confidence of stabilizing coal prices at the national level. Nationwide, with the gradual release of coal production capacity, a significant increase in coal supply can be expected, but the emergence of policy effects still needs a process. On the one hand, we should continuously and stably expand the coal supply, on the other hand, we should continue to strengthen the cooperation between coal and upstream and downstream industries, which is also an effective path to guide the smooth operation of the supply and demand market. Behind the current surge in coal prices, there is no lack of malicious speculation and hoarding by some institutions or individuals. For these violations, the relevant departments should crack down on them in time and effectively maintain the market order. After all, any rational market cannot tolerate disorderly and irrational price increases.
