Paper company inventory first increased and then decreased. The market may experience a slight rebound in late April.

In April, the market is in the traditional off-peak season, with downstream packaging factories having a slightly lower willingness to stock up, mainly focusing on just-in-time procurement. Paper mills are operating steadily, with inventory levels increasing. The contradiction between market supply and demand has intensified, causing paper prices to come under pressure. In the later part of the month, some large-scale paper mills have successively issued price increase notices, while some paper companies have also launched maintenance plans. Downstream enterprises may increase their stock slightly, leading to a slight decrease in paper inventory for paper companies. It is expected that paper prices will increase slightly.
