Report Summary 1. Industry Investment Rating No information provided. 2. Core View The EC market is in a volatile state. The weak volatility this week is due to some airlines starting to lower their quotes for the first ten days of November. The European line is in the regular year - end price - holding stage. The first round of defensive price - holding in late October has initially stopped the decline, and it has now entered the second round in early November. Future price - holding actions are expected in the next two months. However, attention should be paid to changes in Sino - US relations, end - of - month loading conditions, and empty flights in November. The recommended strategy is to wait and see [6][7]. 3.

1. Report Industry Investment Rating - The report does not provide an overall investment rating for the industry [4] 2. Core Viewpoints of the Report - The steel market shows a pattern of futures prices rising and then falling, with spot prices slightly increasing. There are positive factors in the macro - level, but the industry faces challenges such as high production and insufficient demand. The resolution of high - production issues requires time to accumulate contradictions [4] - The rebound space of ferrosilicon and silicomanganese is limited, and the prices tend to fluctuate. They are affected by factors such as downstream demand, supply - demand balance, and cost [4] - For coking coal and coke, the spot procurement sentiment has slowed down, and the futures are challenging the "anti - involution" trading high. The supply - demand tightness may ease in the future [4] - For iron ore, industrial contradictions are gradually accumulating, and it is necessary to pay attention to the overall sentiment of commodities. There may be an oversupply situation in the fourth quarter [4] 3. Summary by Related Catalogs Steel - Futures prices rose and then fell on Tuesday, with spot prices slightly increasing and trading volume shrinking. The macro - level has positive factors, and the industry is in a seasonal destocking phase. However, demand lacks explosive power, and it will take time to resolve high - production problems. It is recommended to take a wait - and - see or oscillatory approach for single - side trading, and observe the opportunity to go long on the spread between hot rolled coils and rebar when the 01 - contract spread is below 150 for arbitrage. Also, perform rolling stop - profit for cash - and - carry arbitrage [4] Ferrosilicon and Silicomanganese - Due to weak downstream demand, the black sector is under pressure. Although they rebounded under factors such as good supply - demand, cost support, low valuation, and a warm macro - environment, the rebound space is narrowing. The prices may fluctuate in the short term, and it is recommended to wait and see [4] Coking Coal and Coke - On the spot side, the trading atmosphere is average, and a northwest coking enterprise has initiated the third price increase, but the mainstream coking enterprises have not responded. The procurement sentiment has slowed down. On the futures side, the sector is oscillating, and the prices of coking coal and coke on the disk are weakening. The supply - demand tightness may ease in the future. It is recommended to wait and see, and industrial customers can consider selling hedging for part of the spot when the coke disk is at a premium [4] Iron Ore - There are many trade disputes, and it is necessary to pay attention to the impact of negotiation results on commodities. The supply side has no major problems, but there may be an oversupply situation in the fourth quarter. It is recommended to wait and see [4]

Group 1: Report Investment Rating - No investment rating information provided in the report Group 2: Core Viewpoints - After the initial consensus was reached in the economic and trade consultations between China, the US, and Malaysia, and Wang Yi's phone call with US Secretary of State Rubio, market uncertainty was further alleviated, leading to a significant decline in safe - haven demand and continuous profit - taking by investors, which was negative for precious metal prices. The easing of physical tightness in London also put pressure on silver prices. In the short term, precious metal prices may still be under pressure due to the cooling of safe - haven demand, but the further decline space is relatively limited as the Fed is likely to cut interest rates in October and the US government shutdown continues. In the long term, the long - term upward logic of precious metals has not reversed, and investors can consider buying on dips [6]. - In the medium - to - long term, the Fed still has room to cut interest rates this year, global geopolitical uncertainties persist, the US debt is unsustainable, and great - power competition intensifies, which will increase the credit risk of the US dollar in the long run. With the continuation of central bank gold purchases, the medium - to - long - term center of gold prices is likely to continue to rise.

Group 1: Report Industry Investment Rating - No information provided Group 2: Report's Core View - In the short term, there is a supply - demand mismatch due to strong terminal demand and continuous destocking of social inventory, pushing up prices. The cost support moves up due to rising ore prices, so prices are likely to move upwards. However, as prices rise, hedging positions on the supply side are gradually released, with lithium mica lithium extraction as the main incremental supply.

Report Summary 1) Report Industry Investment Rating No investment rating information is provided in the report. 2) Core View of the Report - Near the new crops in the Northern Hemisphere and the listing of domestic cane sugar, Zhengzhou sugar is expected to be mainly in a weak - oscillating pattern. The large current import volume of raw sugar and the gradual release of the pressure of imported sugar arriving at ports, with an import cost of 5300 - 5400, suppress the futures market. The first sugar mills in Yunnan started squeezing two days ago, and sugar mills in Guangxi are expected to start concentrated squeezing in mid - to - late November, which may create new selling pressure. However, as the current futures price is close to the domestic sugar - making cost, the futures market is expected to show a resistant decline before the listing of new domestic sugar [3]. 3) Summary by Relevant Catalog Domestic Spot Price and Futures Price - In the domestic spot market, on October 28, 2025, the price in Nanning Warehouse, Guangxi was 5780 yuan/ton with no change; in Kunming, Yunnan, it was 5720 yuan/ton, down 5 yuan; in Dali, Yunnan, it was 5565 yuan/ton with no change; in Rizhao, Shandong, it was 5850 yuan/ton, down 20 yuan.
