Looking forward to 2018, on the one hand, with the world economy stabilizing and improving, the contradiction between supply and demand in the shipping industry is expected to be further alleviated, and the transaction volume of new ships may stabilize, which is conducive to the improvement of shipbuilding capacity utilization. On the other hand, due to insufficient ship construction by shipbuilding companies and rising overall costs, the profitability of shipbuilding companies is still not optimistic. Taken together, China's shipbuilding capacity utilization monitoring index will maintain a stable trend in 2018, or will rise.
