As enthusiasts, we are always looking forward to the price of turtles falling and returning to the original starting point. As an investor or a farmer, I must hope that the price will rise and the sales volume will increase day by day. Because after all, these are two opposing camps, and their interests are inconsistent. However, for sellers, we enthusiasts are their terminals, and without us, turtles can't be raised by themselves for a lifetime, right? Therefore, the market price will always change due to supply and demand.
In today's changing egg turtle market, investors and new farmers are quietly shaping the huge demand in this area. This observation is not only based on market intuition, but also based on detailed data analysis and insights. In other words, the biggest "consumers" of egg turtles today are investors and new farmers.
Some turtle friends shared the background data of e-commerce platforms such as Doudian, and a more nuanced market picture slowly unfolded.
First of all, from the perspective of the overall market, the proportion of sales and sales of various varieties of turtles is like two keys, unlocking the true face of the market.
With its high unit price, the Yellow Rim Turtle dominates the turnover rate. This is undoubtedly a clear proof of the favor of the high-end market, but it is not a direct reflection of the quantitative advantage, just because the current unit price of Huangyuan is still relatively high. Turning to the proportion of sales volume, it is not difficult to find that the demand for varieties in the price range, such as pet turtles priced in the range of 30 to 50 yuan, is far greater than imagined.
Unfortunately, it is difficult to find egg turtles in this price band, and the high price threshold, like an invisible barrier, turns away many potential buyers, resulting in a significant decline in the actual sales performance of this large category of egg turtles in terms of turnover and number of transactions.
Further analysis of the unit price matrix of the egg turtle market clearly reveals the subtle changes in market acceptance. Although there are many varieties of egg turtles, each with its own characteristics, it has encountered a cold reception in the terminal market, and consumers are discouraged by high prices, and market activity is greatly reduced.
Behind this, there is not only the wind of speculation fueling the flames, artificially creating the illusion of prosperity, but also the quiet role of the market self-regulation mechanism. Investors and farmers are gradually aware of the vulnerability of price bubbles in the game of interests and risks.
When it comes to the future trend of specific species such as the pit turtle, especially whether they can maintain price stability in the first half of 2024, the key lies in the market reaction of the warmed rookzai (such as April and May). However, the pessimism in the market has not dissipated, although the "crash theory" is regarded as a statement to create panic, but the phenomenon that farmers are difficult to find buyers in the concentrated release of goods, undoubtedly adds a bit of reality to this statement. The unsalable greenhouse is not only an intuitive embodiment of financial pressure, but also a severe test of market confidence.
In this context, the tacit understanding and cooperation between some farmers are particularly fragile. Despite the tacit agreement to maintain prices and reduce supply, the selfishness of human nature and the cruelty of the market often make such alliances difficult to last. There will always be people who secretly ship and drop the price if they can't get out.
In the end, who will win this game of "who runs first" has become a puzzle that no one dares to assert easily. In this war without gunpowder, every participant is looking for their own way to survive, and what is the final direction of the market?
I'm afraid it's still a bit difficult to reach the target price of many turtle friends in 2024 this year, but really as turtle friends said before, the price in 2025 will make everyone more satisfied. Of course, don't expect to get the same price as flowers. How many years of breeding history have flowers and plants, and how many years have egg turtles been?
