Report Summary 1. Investment Rating No investment rating for the industry is provided in the report. 2. Core Viewpoints - Last week, Shanghai Tin (SHFE Tin) showed an overall oscillatory trend. On November 7, 2025, the spot price of Mysteel's comprehensive 1 tin was 283,750 yuan/ton, with little fluctuation in futures prices and basis during the period [11]. - Refined tin production in September was 9,770 tons, down both month - on - month and year - on - year, and is expected to return to normal in October. Domestic tin ore production from January to August totaled 50,200 tons, with a slight year - on - year increase, remaining stable. The resumption of mining production in Myanmar has repeatedly affected the price range [11]. - In September, the demand for integrated circuits, automobiles, and PVC maintained good growth, while the demand in traditional sectors such as computers, some white goods, and photovoltaics slowed down. It is expected that the demand in emerging sectors will remain resilient in October, while the demand in some traditional sectors will be adjusted [11]. - The ore end remains tight, and processing fees continue to decline weakly. Overall, profits will remain low under the interference of the ore end [11]. - LME and SHFE inventories increased slightly week - on - week, while social inventories decreased slightly week - on - week [11]. - Due to insufficient supply, the domestic economy remains resilient, and the prosperity of semiconductors, automobiles, etc. generally maintains an upward trend. Overseas uncertainties are still high, and there is still an expectation of interest rate cuts in the later period. The ore end situation is unstable. In terms of operation, those with heavy positions can appropriately reduce their positions, and conduct light - position long - biased trading, with the weekly support level around 273,000 - 275,000 yuan/ton. For options, sell out - of - the - money put options [11]. 3. Summary by Directory 3.1 Week - on - Week Viewpoints and Strategies - **Market Conditions**: SHFE Tin oscillated last week.

1. Report Industry Investment Rating - Not provided in the given content 2. Core Viewpoints of the Report - The domestic methanol market is under significant supply pressure, with high domestic开工率 and production, and continuously high import volumes. The demand is weak, with most downstream industries'开工率 showing a continuous decline. Port methanol inventory is at an extremely high level, with tight tank capacity and rising floating storage. As a result, the methanol price may continue to seek support downward. Key factors to monitor include domestic port inventory and the operation of MTO devices [8]. 3. Summary by Relevant Catalogs 3.1 Viewpoint and Strategy - For unilateral and options trading, adopt a bearish strategy. In options trading, sell call options [7]. - MA unilateral strategy: Short MA509. The price is under pressure and falling. As of November 06, the price of MA601 was 2,125 yuan/ton. The logic is high domestic production, record - high imports, average demand, and extremely high port inventory, leading to a bearish operation recommendation [11]. - PP - 3MA strategy: Short the PP - 3MA spread. The spread is in a rebound trend. As of November 06, the spread of the January contract was 96 yuan/ton. The logic is that the supply pressure of PP is greater than that of methanol, and MTO profit is under pressure. However, in the short term, methanol is bearish due to extremely high inventory. The operation recommendation is to short on rallies and wait and see for now [14]. 3.2 Methanol Supply and Demand Overview 3.2.1 Supply - Inventory: As of November 5, 2025, the inventory of Chinese methanol sample production enterprises was 386,400 tons, a week - on - week increase of 10,400 tons or 2.75%.

The port inventory was 1,517,100 tons, a week - on - week increase of 10,600 tons or 0.70% [8][111][113]. - Production and Capacity Utilization: In November, the weekly data of China's methanol production is expected to be around 2,008,400 tons, with a capacity utilization rate of about 88.51%, an increase from the current period. From October 31 to November 6, 2025, the methanol production was 1,992,055 tons, a week - on - week increase of 26,860 tons, and the device capacity utilization rate was 87.79%, a week - on - week increase of 1.36% [8][69]. - Imports: The estimated arrival plan of methanol import samples is 436,100 tons, including 368,100 tons of visible imports and 68,000 tons of non - visible imports. From October 30 to November 5, 2025, the Chinese methanol sample arrival volume was 387,000 tons, including 345,800 tons of foreign vessels (232,000 tons of visible and 113,800 tons of non - visible) and 41,200 tons of domestic trade vessels [8][76]. - New Capacity in 2025: China's new methanol capacity in 2025 is about 8.6 million tons, with a capacity increase of about 8.4%. Most of the new devices are equipped with downstream facilities such as MTO, acetic acid, and BDO [78][79]. 3.2.2 Demand - MTO Industry: The MTO industry's开工率 is 90.6%, a week - on - week decrease of 0.37%. The load of olefin enterprises in East China was slightly adjusted, the load of Shandong Luxi was at a low level, and the load of Xinjiang Hengyou increased. After the offset, the olefin industry's开工 continued to decline this week [86]. - Traditional Downstream Industries: The traditional demand is poor, and the开工率 is low. The开工率 of formaldehyde, glacial acetic acid, and chloride industries is expected to rise, while the开工 rate of dimethyl ether is expected to remain flat [8][89]. - Downstream Procurement and Orders: As of November 5, 2025, the pending orders of sample enterprises were 221,100 tons, an increase of 5,500 tons from the previous period, a week - on - week increase of 2.57% [105]. - New Downstream Capacity: In 2025, there are new production capacities in various downstream industries such as methane chloride, glacial acetic acid, formaldehyde, and others [107]. 3.3 Price and Spread - Spot Price and Basis: As of November 06, the spot price in Jiangsu Taicang was 2,080 yuan/ton, and the basis relative to the January contract was - 45 yuan/ton [18]. - Domestic Spread and Freight: Data on the spread between Taicang and Inner Mongolia and the spread and freight between Inner Mongolia and Dongying are presented, but no specific analysis is provided in the summary part [19]. - International Methanol and Natural Gas Price: Data on international methanol prices (including Southeast Asia CFR, China CFR, and Rotterdam FOB) and international natural gas prices (including European and Henry Hub) are presented, but no specific analysis is provided in the summary part [23][25]. - Inter - contract Spread: Data on the spread between methanol 9 - 1, 1 - 5, and 5 - 9 contracts are presented, but no specific analysis is provided in the summary part [27][30]. - Related Product Ratio: Data on the ratio of methanol to urea and methanol to liquefied gas (based on the main contracts) are presented, but no specific analysis is provided in the summary part [34]. 3.4 Industrial Chain Profit - Import Profit: The import profit remains in a loss, currently at - 30 yuan/ton [8]. - Coal - based Methanol Production Profit: The loss of coal - based methanol production profit in Inner Mongolia has widened, currently at - 227 yuan/ton [8]. - Downstream Profit: The downstream profit is in a large loss.

铜矿供应紧张为铜价提供支撑
Hua Lian Qi Huo· 2025-11-09 11:59
1. Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant content provided. 2. Core Viewpoints of the Report - The current supply of copper ore remains tight, with the copper concentrate processing fee TC at a deeply negative level. The market generally expects the final result of the 2026 copper concentrate long - term processing fee negotiation to be significantly lower than the 2025 benchmark price of $21.25 per dry ton, and it may approach zero, with individual negotiations possibly resulting in negative values. - In November, the number of smelters scheduled for maintenance decreased to 5, involving a rough smelting capacity of 1.5 million tons and an estimated impact on production of 48,000 tons. Due to the pressure on raw materials being transmitted to the domestic smelting sector, along with negative copper processing fees and falling by - product prices, smelter profits are significantly pressured, and it is expected that the electrolytic copper output in November will decline month - on - month. - Although the previous period was the traditional peak season, high copper prices have to some extent suppressed downstream purchasing willingness. However, the demand side has strong resilience, and terminal demands such as power grids and new energy provide marginal increments. As the issue of supply shortages becomes a consensus, the downstream's acceptance of high copper prices is gradually increasing, and the medium - to - long - term supply - demand fundamentals provide solid support for the price center. - The strategy is to continue to focus on medium - term long positions, with the medium - term reference support range for Shanghai copper 2601 being 83,500 - 84,000 yuan/ton [8][9]. 3. Summaries According to the Table of Contents 3.1 Week - ly Views and Strategies - **Strategy**: Focus on medium - term long positions, with the medium - term reference support range for Shanghai copper 2601 being 83,500 - 84,000 yuan/ton [8] - **Macro**: In October, China's total goods trade import and export value was 3.7 trillion yuan, a 0.1% increase. Exports were 2.17 trillion yuan, a 0.8% decrease, and imports were 1.53 trillion yuan, a 1.4% increase, with imports having increased for 5 consecutive months. The US government shutdown set a record for the longest duration, and many important economic indicators lacked official data. According to economists' estimates, if the number of non - agricultural employment in October decreased by 60,000, the unemployment rate would rise to 4.5% [9] - **Supply**: Copper ore supply is tight, and the copper concentrate processing fee TC is deeply negative. It is expected that the 2026 long - term processing fee will be much lower than that in 2025. In November, 5 smelters are scheduled for maintenance, affecting 48,000 tons of production. It is expected that November's electrolytic copper output will decline month - on - month [9] - **Demand**: High copper prices have suppressed downstream purchasing, but demand has resilience, and power grids and new energy provide marginal increments. The downstream's acceptance of high prices is increasing [9] - **Inventory**: LME copper futures inventory decreased slightly, while domestic social inventory slowly increased due to the suppression of high - price copper on downstream purchases [9] 3.2 Futures and Spot Markets No specific analysis content provided, only figure names such as "Domestic Futures and Spot Prices", "Shanghai Flat - water Copper Premiums and Discounts", "LME Copper 3 - Month Forward Price", and "Shanghai - London Ratio" are mentioned [14][17] 3.3 Supply and Inventory - **Global Copper Resource Distribution**: Global copper resources are mainly distributed in Chile, Peru, Australia, Russia, and Mexico. Chile has the largest copper reserves, accounting for 21.3%, while China's copper resources are relatively scarce, accounting for only 3% [23] - **Global Copper Capital Expenditure**: Long - term capital expenditure suppresses incremental supply. Old mines have declining grades and rising geopolitical risks, making stable production difficult. Optimistically, the global copper mine production increments in 2025, 2026, and 2027 are expected to be 560,000, 1.28 million, and 470,000 tons respectively, with corresponding growth rates of about 2.5%, 5.6%, and 1.9%.

Report Summary 1. Report Industry Investment Rating There is no information provided regarding the report's industry investment rating. 2. Core Views - **Soda Ash**: Last week, soda ash production decreased by 10,700 tons week - on - week, the manufacturer's shipment rate dropped by 3.14%, and the upstream manufacturer's inventory increased by 12,200 tons. Some soda ash enterprises reduced their loads, and production slightly decreased. The inventory accumulation slowed down. Recently, the supply of soda ash has remained at a high level with narrow fluctuations. Although the enterprise profit has continued to shrink, there has been no significant production cut, and the supply pressure remains high. The daily melting volume of downstream glass has remained low, the improvement in soda ash demand is limited, and the manufacturer's inventory is difficult to deplete. The high supply has hit market confidence, and the futures market is under pressure and operating weakly. The 2601 contract is expected to run in the range of 1160 - 1280 [7]. - **Glass**: Last week, 4 coal - fired production lines were shut down, and 1 previously ignited production line started to produce glass. The weekly开工率 and weekly supply decreased. Affected by the news of the technological transformation and shutdown of production lines in the Shahe area, the market production and sales improved, and the manufacturer's inventory continued to decline. Currently, glass is dragged down by the weak real estate market, and the demand outlook is not optimistic. The market expects a reduction in supply. It is expected that there is still room for adjustment and repair in the industry's supply - demand relationship. However, the short - term peak - season consumption is lower than expected, the inventory remains high, and later the consumption will gradually enter the off - season, so the improvement in the supply - demand contradiction may be limited. The 2601 contract is expected to run in the range of 1050 - 1160 [8]. 3.

1. Report Industry Investment Rating No information provided. 2. Core Viewpoints of the Report - **Market Performance**: From October 31 to November 7, 2025, the spot price of zinc oscillated upward, with the benchmark spot price reaching 22,650 yuan/ton on November 7, a 1.66% increase from October 30. In the futures market, the main zinc contract also trended upward, closing at 22,720 yuan/ton with a weekly gain of 1.63%. The current open interest of the main - month contract is around 112,500 lots [8]. - **Macro - environment**: Sino - US economic and trade consultations in Kuala Lumpur led to a series of agreements on tariffs and export controls, showing signs of trade friction mitigation. The Fed's interest - rate cut expectation in December is uncertain, pending inflation and employment data after the US government reopens. The "15th Five - Year Plan" proposal brings new development opportunities to the new energy and new materials sectors [8]. - **Supply**: Limited domestic zinc concentrate increments have caused a decline in spot processing fees. There is an increasing expectation of production cuts and shutdowns in November. Some northern mines have actively controlled production after completing their annual plans, leading to a temporary tightness in zinc ore supply and concerns about a contraction in refined zinc output [8]. - **Demand**: Seasonal weakness in demand persists. With the arrival of the construction off - season in the north, the operating rates of downstream industries such as galvanizing and zinc die - casting may further decline, and the pattern of spot discounts is difficult to reverse. Specifically, the estimated operating rate of zinc oxide manufacturers remains stable at about 51%, a Tianjin zinc oxide plant affected by environmental protection controls is expected to resume production next week; the estimated operating rate of the zinc alloy industry next week is 54%, with downstream raw material purchases only meeting rigid demand and new orders at the beginning of next month falling short of expectations; the operating rate of galvanized sheets is expected to continue to recover to about 63% [8]. - **Inventory**: Overall inventory is at a low level. As of November 6, LME zinc delivery inventory was reported at 34,100 tons, and SHFE inventory was 69,300 tons, showing a differentiated inventory level [8]. - **Summary**: The macro - sentiment is cautiously recovering. Overseas zinc ingots remain in short supply, and the export window will remain open in November. The cost support from processing fees and weak downstream demand create a tug - of - war for zinc prices, resulting in a wide - range oscillating trend [8]. - **Strategy**: Conduct range trading for the zn2601 contract, with a reference operating range of 21,000 - 23,000 yuan/ton, or buy out - of - the - money call options [8]. 3. Summary by Relevant Catalogs 3.1. Week - on - Week View and Strategy - **Hot News**: US ADP data showed that private - sector employment increased by 42,000 in October, far exceeding the market expectation of 22,000 and the largest increase since July 2025. However, the September data was revised downward to a decrease of 32,000. This strong data alleviated market concerns about the weak labor market. This week, both the smelting and downstream sectors were affected. Tight raw materials and falling processing fees put pressure on many smelting enterprises, which have started production cuts. Northern downstream enterprises' operations and shipments were affected by environmental protection controls, leading to tightened raw material purchases. The spot market continued with a pattern of small - volume rigid - demand transactions. Traders actively bought export - eligible zinc ingot sources, driving up the premiums of some zinc ingot brands in Shanghai and Tianjin. Overseas, LME zinc inventory hit a new low again. Under the dominance of long - position funds, domestic and international zinc prices trended strongly this week. Attention should be paid to the subsequent rhythm of zinc ingot exports and overseas warehousing [7]. - **Influence Factor Prediction**: The supply expectation is fluctuating (neutral), downstream demand is weak (bearish), inventory is differentiated (neutral), export expectation is good (bullish), market sentiment has no impact (neutral), cost - profit has no impact (bullish), and the macro - environment has no impact (neutral). Overall, the market is expected to oscillate [9]. 3.2. Industrial Chain Structure The zinc industry chain includes zinc ore, scrap zinc, refined zinc (including fire - refined zinc and electrolytic zinc), and downstream products such as zinc die - casting alloys, zinc - based alloys, galvanized products, zinc oxide, etc. Downstream applications cover various fields such as toys, hardware, construction, and automotive [11]. 3.3. Term Market The report presents multiple charts related to futures and spot prices, including active - contract futures closing prices, settlement prices, LME 3 - month zinc futures closing prices, refined zinc prices, and London zinc ingot spot prices, with data sources from WIND and the Hualian Futures Research Institute [15][19][25][33]. 3.4. Inventory The report shows charts of inventory data, including SHFE inventory, LME inventory, zinc finished - product inventory, zinc spot inventory, zinc ore port inventory, and zinc ore raw - material inventory days, with data sources from Steel Union Data and the Hualian Futures Research Institute [35][40][46]. 3.5. Supply The supply - side content includes charts of global and domestic zinc ore production, zinc ore imports, zinc ore prices, zinc concentrate processing fees, refined zinc prices, refined zinc operating rates, global and Chinese refined zinc production, and refined zinc imports and exports, with data sources from Steel Union Data and the Hualian Futures Research Institute [50][53][56][59][65][70]. 3.6. Demand - **Downstream Product Data**: The report provides production and operating - rate data for downstream products such as galvanized sheets, zinc alloys, and zinc oxide from June 2024 to February 2025, as well as charts of consumption structure, zinc ingot apparent and actual consumption, galvanized sheet production and operating rates, zinc alloy production and operating rates, zinc oxide operating rates and prices, and terminal - demand data for real estate, home appliances, and the automotive industry, with data sources from Steel Union Data and the Hualian Futures Research Institute [74][75][80][84][90][94][99]. - **2025 Supply - Demand Balance**: The report presents the supply - demand balance data for 2025, including production, imports, exports, net imports, total supply, apparent consumption, ending inventory, inventory changes, total demand, and supply - demand balance for each month [113]. 3.7. Others - **Price and Ratio**: The report includes charts of the Shanghai - London price ratio, zinc ingot main - contract basis, sulfuric acid prices, and zinc alloy prices, with data sources from Steel Union Data and the Hualian Futures Research Institute [104][108].

1. Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant content provided. 2. Core View of the Report - Gold is expected to fluctuate, and there is still a probability of filling the previous gap. The medium - and long - term positive logic for gold remains, including potential Fed rate cuts, a weakening dollar, and central bank gold purchases due to global political and economic instability. It is recommended to hold the remaining long positions in gold medium - term and set stop - profits. For options, wait for opportunities to buy call options again [6]. 3. Summary According to Related Catalogs 3.1 Fundamental View - **Price Movement**: Since 2025, the price of the London gold and Shanghai gold indexes has increased by 51.55% and 49.17% respectively. Last week, they decreased by - 0.64% and - 0.07% respectively [4][17]. - **Inflation**: In June 2022, the CPI reached a high of 9.1% and then declined. The PCE also peaked in June 2022. Core CPI and core PCE showed a downward trend. Since February 2024, the CPI rebounded, and the decline of core inflation slowed or even reversed. In August, the PCE increased to 2.74% year - on - year, and the core PCE to 2.91%. In September, the US CPI inflation rose slightly, while the core CPI fell slightly and was lower than expected [4][20]. - **Interest Rates**: From mid - to late October 2023, the US medium - term Treasury bond yields declined until January this year. Since February 2024, they have rebounded, then fluctuated and declined near last year's high. Since September, they have fallen below the 2024 low and reached a new low [4][24]. - **Supply and Demand**: In 2024, the global gold supply - demand balance became less loose, mainly due to a large increase in investment demand. In China, gold supply increased slightly year - on - year, and demand also recovered, mainly due to a significant increase in investment demand. The central bank's gold purchases remained above 1000 tons. The domestic gold supply - demand is in a tight balance, mainly due to a significant increase in gold bars and coins. In the first half of 2025, investment demand increased significantly [4]. - **US Economy**: In August 2025, the US added 22,000 jobs, far lower than the market expectation of 70,000, reaching the lowest level since October last year. In August 2025, the average hourly wage of US non - farm employees increased by 0.4%, up 0.1% from the previous month. The unemployment rate in July remained at 4.3%. The non - farm employment data in August 2025 continued to be significantly weaker than expected [4][33]. 3.2 Strategy View and Outlook - **Outlook**: Last Friday, the main gold futures contract rebounded after hitting a low, with support at the 30 - day moving average. Gold is expected to fluctuate, and there is a chance to fill the previous gap. After the sharp rise in gold due to the Fed rate - cut expectations, the US government shutdown, and tariff hikes since the end of August, on the evening of October 21, the international gold price dropped significantly. The reasons are the decline in risk - aversion sentiment and profit - taking triggered by the overbought technical condition. However, the medium - and long - term positive factors for gold still exist [6]. - **Operation Suggestion**: Hold the remaining long positions in gold medium - term and set stop - profits. Wait for opportunities to buy call options [6]. 3.3 Industry Chain Structure (Periodic and Spot Markets) - Gold prices stopped falling last week. Since 2025, the London gold and Shanghai gold indexes have increased by 51.55% and 49.17% respectively, and last week they decreased by - 0.64% and - 0.07% respectively [15][17]. 3.4 Gold Supply and Demand - **Global and Domestic Supply - Demand Balance**: When the gold supply - demand is in a tight balance, it is conducive to rising gold prices; when it is in a weak balance, the impact on gold prices is small. In 2024, the global gold supply - demand became less loose, and in China, the supply increased slightly year - on - year while demand recovered, mainly due to increased investment demand [4][37]. - **Central Bank Gold Purchases**: In the second quarter of 2025, global central bank gold purchases continued to decline to 166.46 tons from 248.57 tons in the first quarter. From November 2022 to April 2024, the People's Bank of China continuously bought gold. After six consecutive months without purchases, it bought gold from November 2024 to September 2025, with a total purchase of 44.16 tons since 2024 [41]. - **ETF Demand**: In 2023, the gold holdings of ETFs decreased by 113.69 tons, and in 2024, they decreased by 28.46 tons. As of November 5, last week, gold ETFs increased their holdings by 1.55 tons, and in 2025, the holdings increased by 254.68 tons [45]. 3.5 Exchange Rate and Dollar Index - The domestic gold market has a slight premium over the international market. The report also presents data on the RMB exchange rate, the dollar index, and the exchange rates between the dollar and other currencies [69]. 3.6 Gold - Silver - Oil Ratio - The report provides data on the gold - silver ratio and the gold - oil ratio [73][75].

The open interest of the main contract was about 268,300 lots [6]. - **Supply**: After the end of the wet - season, most manufacturers in the southwest main production areas reduced or halted production, leading to a significant decline in output. The operating rate in the northwest decreased slightly, and overall market supply decreased compared to the previous week [6]. - **Demand**: The polysilicon market is in a game between "weak reality" and "strong expectation". High inventory and weak demand suppress the spot price, and leading enterprises cut production in November, reducing the demand for industrial silicon. The organic silicon DMC plants in Jiangxi and Yunnan have gradually resumed operation, increasing the demand for industrial silicon. The output of aluminum rods decreased this week, and the capacity utilization rate rebounded, with demand for industrial silicon remaining relatively stable. Export demand decreased in September [6]. - **Cost, Profit and Inventory**: The production cost of industrial silicon increased this week due to a slight increase in petroleum coke prices, and the prices of silica and electrodes in the southwest were basically stable. The electricity price in the southwest will rise next week, further increasing production costs. The profit of industrial silicon decreased slightly due to increased costs. The industry inventory is at a relatively high level, and with most southwest manufacturers halting production and low market prices, manufacturers are not willing to sell, resulting in little change in inventory. As of November 6, the inventory in the industrial silicon futures delivery warehouse was about 231,000 tons [6]. - **Outlook**: Although the operating rate of industrial silicon has decreased, due to the previous increase in the northwest, buyers' purchasing mentality is not active, and most purchase on - demand. It is expected that the short - term market price of industrial silicon will fluctuate slightly [6]. - **Strategy**: Consider going long on si2601 at low prices, with an expected operating range of 8,500 - 10,500 yuan/ton; or sell out - of - the - money call options; or adopt a reverse arbitrage strategy between industrial silicon and polysilicon [6]. 3.
