Core Viewpoint - The London Metal Exchange (LME) has suspended all non-USD denominated metal options trading, which is seen as a move to reinforce the dominance of the USD in global commodity pricing and to counter the growing internationalization of the RMB [1][18]. Group 1 - The LME's official reason for the suspension is the low trading volume of non-USD contracts, which has led to higher maintenance costs than benefits [1]. - Despite the LME's claims, RMB-denominated metal futures trading has been significantly increasing, with daily trading volume for copper futures rising from over 300,000 contracts in 2024 to nearly 500,000 contracts in the first half of 2025, marking a nearly threefold increase over three years [1]. - The RMB's share in long-term metal transactions in regions like the Middle East and Africa has surpassed 30% [1]. Group 2 - The urgency from the U.S. to act against RMB internationalization stems from three main factors: the signing of RMB settlement agreements for iron ore with Australia, the successful issuance of $4 billion in sovereign bonds with a high subscription rate, and the upcoming shift in U.S. monetary policy towards quantitative easing [2][14]. - The issuance of U.S. sovereign bonds saw a subscription rate of 30 times the issuance amount, indicating strong international investor confidence [2][3].

Group 5 - The competition for pricing power will likely enhance the strategic position and valuation of related sectors in the A-share market, as more trading may shift to the Shanghai Futures Exchange [31]. - The focus on critical mineral supply chain security will increase attention on China's dominance in rare earths, presenting potential investment opportunities [32]. - The anticipated liquidity influx from U.S. monetary policy changes could alter market dynamics, creating both opportunities and risks for investors [32].
