Although the number of transactions recorded on the first trading day of the year is satisfactory, many market participants have opened expressed their scepticism about the near-term market outlook. Trading activities might soon recede as China embrace the Lunar New Year holiday. A number of small-scale manufacturers have already taken off since late December, while more are suspending productions starting 10 January.
