Supply is sufficient by the end of the year, and the long-term situation depends on policies. Strong cost support makes the price likely to rise - Palm oil: The biggest variable in the oil and fats sector. Production in the producing regions may still increase in the third quarter, and export data is rising. The current futures price is unlikely to fall deeply, but the upside is also limited - Operation Suggestion: Roll long on single oil and fats contracts, and conduct a long rapeseed oil - short soybean oil arbitrage [8] 2.

1. Report Industry Investment Rating - Overweight interest rate bonds and gold, moderately allocate credit bonds, blue - chip stocks, and crude oil, and under - allocate growth stocks and currency [4][54] 2. Core Viewpoints of the Report - Trump's leadership in the restructuring of the international trade and monetary system is mostly framed. The Sino - US trade deadlock may continue, the Fed may restart the interest - rate cut process, and China may shift its focus from stabilizing growth to adjusting the economic structure. The macro - environment is relatively favorable for risk assets such as stocks and industrial commodities, slightly favorable for precious metals, and unfavorable for government bonds. However, the A - share market has internal adjustment risks, and bonds may have periodic opportunities [4] 3. Summary According to the Table of Contents 3.1 2025 January - August Macro - market Review - From November 2024 to mid - January 2025, the "Trump trade" boom made the US dollar, US Treasury yields, and US stocks rise, while overseas assets were under pressure. From mid - January to March, the US dollar and US Treasury yields weakened as Trump's reforms caused risks in the US, and overseas assets became more attractive. In early April, Trump's high - tariff announcement triggered a global financial tsunami, followed by a 90 - day suspension. In May, China increased counter - cyclical adjustments, and the global risk appetite gradually recovered from late April to June. Since July, global risk assets have continued to rise, and safe - haven assets have been suppressed [4][6] 3.2 Macro - environment Review 3.2.1 China's External Demand Shows Resilience but Domestic Demand Weakens Across the Board - In July, China's domestic demand weakened due to the diminishing effect of fiscal and monetary stimulus and international trade frictions. However, external demand remained resilient. Investment growth slowed down in multiple sectors, consumption growth declined, industrial output growth weakened, the real - estate market showed mixed signals with high inventory, prices continued to fall, CPI was stable with some fluctuations, PPI continued to decline, new social financing increased, and exports grew due to multiple factors [7][10][19] 3.2.2 New Policies Impact the US Economy into Stagflation - Trump's radical reforms have disrupted the US economic and social order. In July, US employment data deteriorated significantly, the labor participation rate decreased, the unemployment rate increased, inflation showed a complex situation with core CPI rising and some commodity inflation pressures easing, and consumer confidence was affected by trade policies [21][23][26] 3.2.3 China Increases Counter - cyclical Support Policies - In August, China adjusted real - estate policies in core cities, introduced personal and service - sector consumption loan subsidy policies. From January to July, China's fiscal stimulus was strong, but it also led to a rapid increase in the debt - leverage ratio [27][29][34] 3.2.4 The Fed Hints at Restarting the Interest - rate Cut Process - Fed Chairman Powell's speech at the Jackson - Hole meeting hinted at a possible interest - rate cut in September. The market has high expectations for rate cuts this year. Trump is trying to increase his influence on the Fed. In 2026, the Fed's rate - cut pace may slow down based on economic fundamentals, but Trump's influence may accelerate it [35][36][37] 3.3 Asset Market Analysis - China's Treasury bond yields are expected to be weak in the second half of 2025, with a core range of 1.5 - 2% for the 10 - year bond. US Treasury bond yields are likely to remain high and fluctuate, with a core range of 4 - 5% for the 10 - year bond. The US dollar index is expected to decline first and then rise, with a core range of 95 - 105. The RMB exchange - rate index may be under pressure, and the RMB against the US dollar may depreciate. Global stock markets have risen this year, but the A - share market has internal adjustment risks. Commodities are likely to maintain a high - level and wide - range oscillation [42][46][51] 3.4 Medium - term Asset Allocation - From January to August 2025, Chinese stocks, currency, commodities, and bonds had different growth rates. The international trade and monetary system restructuring and domestic liquidity environment have affected asset prices. Based on the current situation, it is recommended to over - allocate interest - rate bonds and gold, moderately allocate credit bonds, blue - chip stocks, and crude oil, and under - allocate growth stocks and currency [52][53][54]

Report Information - Report Type: Precious Metals Monthly Report - Date: September 1, 2025 - Research Team: Macro Financial Research Team - Researchers: He Zhuoqiao, Huang Wenxin, Nie Jiayi [2] Report Industry Investment Rating - Not provided in the report Core Viewpoints - The long - term bull market of gold is supported by the hedging demand and reserve diversification demand due to the restructuring of the international trade and monetary system. The medium - term bull market is supported by economic growth weakness and central bank interest - rate cut expectations caused by Trump's reforms. In the short term, gold is expected to break through the $3,500/ounce mark and start a new upward trend. Silver, with strong industrial attributes, will also rise and may outperform gold. Investors are advised to maintain a bullish trading approach, and short - hedgers can reduce the hedging ratio [5]. Section Summaries 1. 2025 January - August Precious Metals Trend Review - Gold started a new upward trend in late December 2024 due to factors such as festival consumption expectations in China and India,避险需求, and US economic stagflation risks. In early April, the release of Trump's tariff details caused gold to fall to $2,956/ounce, but then it soared to $3,500/ounce due to multiple hedging demands. After that, gold traded in the range of $3,120 - $3,500/ounce. In August, gold rebounded and reached a new closing - price high on August 29. In 2025, London gold and silver rose 29.4% and 33.5% respectively, and Shanghai gold and silver futures indices rose 26.4% and 24.4% respectively [7][10]. - In June, funds flocked to silver, platinum, and palladium. Silver reached a 15 - year high of $39.52/ounce on July 23. The correlations between gold and the US dollar index, US Treasury real - interest rates, crude oil, and silver have all changed [9][10]. 2. Influence Factor Analysis 2.1 US Employment Market Weakens and Inflation is Moderate - In July 2025, US non - farm payrolls increased by 73,000, significantly lower than the expected 104,000. The unemployment rate rose, but the Sahm indicator was far below the recession threshold. Overall, the employment market deteriorated, giving the Fed a reason to restart interest - rate cuts without causing market panic about a recession. In July, the overall CPI remained at 2.7%, the core CPI rose to 3%, and the PPI increased by 0.9% month - on - month [11][14][15]. - Tariff threats pushed up inflation expectations and depressed consumer confidence. In May, 1 - year and 5 - year inflation expectations reached their highest levels since 1982, and the consumer confidence index hit a three - year low. After June - July, inflation expectations eased, but they rebounded in August [17][18]. 2.2 The Fed Hints at Restarting Interest - Rate Cuts - Fed Chairman Powell's speech at the Jackson - Hole meeting in August was seen as opening the door for a September interest - rate cut. The market expects an 81.9% probability of a 25 - basis - point cut on September 17, a 43.5% probability of another 25 - basis - point cut on October 29, and 80.2% and 33.3% probabilities of 50 - basis - point and 75 - basis - point cuts this year respectively [19]. - Trump has been attacking the Fed. He has made personnel changes at the Fed, increasing his influence. The market expects the Fed to cut interest rates by 75 basis points from January to July 2026, with the federal funds rate dropping to 3 - 3.25% by July 30 [20][21][22]. 2.3 Trade Policy Developments - The high - tariff suspension period between China and the US was extended to November 9. Trump imposed new tariffs on India and threatened to impose tariffs on imported furniture, but the impact of new tariff measures on the market is small [24]. - The US and the EU reached a trade agreement, including tariff adjustments, energy and chip purchases, and investment cooperation [25][26]. 2.4 US Dollar Exchange Rate and US Treasury Yields - US Treasury 10 - year yields have fluctuated. It is expected that the 10 - year Treasury yield will continue to steepen in the second half of 2025, with a core fluctuation range of 4 - 5%. The US dollar index is expected to first decline and then rise, with a core range of 95 - 105. The RMB - US dollar exchange rate is expected to first rise and then fall, with a core range of 7.1 - 7.4 [27][30][31]. 2.5 Gold Supply, Demand, and Market Structure - Gold and silver ETF holdings have rebounded since 2025. As of August 27, SPDR Gold ETF holdings were 962.5 tons, and SLV Silver ETF holdings were 15,275 tons. In the week of August 19, non - commercial institutions adjusted their positions in gold and silver futures and options, with the gold fund net - long ratio dropping to 31.3% and the silver fund net - long ratio rising to 223.4% [32][34]. 3. Precious Metals Price Outlook - In the long term, geopolitical risks and the restructuring of the trade and monetary system support the upward movement of the gold price center. In the medium term, economic growth weakness and interest - rate cut expectations keep the gold price strong. In the short term, gold is expected to break through $3,500/ounce and start a new upward trend [35][39].

Industry Investment Rating - The report does not mention the industry investment rating Core Viewpoints - The international trade currency system restructuring and the Fed's interest rate cut expectations continue to support the long - and medium - term bull market of gold, but the high price also means increased volatility. It is recommended that investors maintain a long - term view and participate in gold and silver trading with medium - to - low positions [4][6] Summary by Directory I. Precious Metals Market Quotes and Outlook Intraday Market - Fed Governor Waller supports a September interest rate cut and further cuts in the next six months, and Governor Cook sues Trump. The Fed's interest rate cut expectations push the US dollar index below 98 and London gold above $3400/oz. However, the better - than - expected Q2 GDP revision in the US and stable weekly unemployment data limit the upward momentum of gold prices. The market expects the overall PCE and core PCE in July to increase by 2.6% and 2.9% year - on - year respectively. It is recommended that investors maintain a long - term view and participate in trading with medium - to - low positions [4] Medium - term Market - Since late April, London gold has been oscillating between $3100 - $3500/oz. The easing of international trade and the improvement of financial markets weaken the safe - haven demand for gold, but the restructuring of the international trade currency system and the Fed's interest rate cut expectations continue to support the price. It is expected that London gold will continue to oscillate between $3120 - $3500/oz in the short term, and the bottom of the price correction has been rising since the end of June. It is recommended that investors maintain a long - term view and participate in gold and silver trading with medium - to - low positions [6] II. Precious Metals Market - related Charts - The report provides multiple charts including Shanghai gold and silver futures indices, London gold and silver spot prices, Shanghai futures index basis against Shanghai Gold TD, and gold and silver ETF holdings [8][10] III. Major Macroeconomic Events/Data - The US Q2 GDP growth rate is 3.3% on a quarter - on - quarter annualized basis, higher than the previous report and economists' expectations. Fed Governor Cook sues Trump for the right to remove her. Governor Waller supports an interest - rate cut next month and further cuts in the next three to six months. The ECB policymakers are divided on inflation expectations in July. The EU proposes to cancel import tariffs on US industrial products in exchange for lower US tariffs on European cars. Russian oil exports to India are expected to increase in September [18][19]

Report Information - Report Type: Stock Index Daily Review [1] - Date: September 1, 2025 [2] - Researchers: Nie Jiayi, He Zhuoqiao, Huang Wenxin [3] Market Performance Market Review - On August 29, the Wind All A index opened with an upward trend, then reversed and declined, and rebounded again at the end of the session, closing up 0.37% with over 60% of stocks falling. The CSI 300, SSE 50, and CSI 500 closed up 0.74%, 0.53%, and 0.47% respectively, while the CSI 1000 closed down 0.11%. The performance of index futures was generally stronger than that of the spot market, with the main contracts of IF, IH, IC, and IM closing up 1.03%, 0.68%, 0.43%, and 0.05% respectively [6]. Market Outlook - External markets: On August 25, Trump stated that China must ensure the supply of rare - earth magnets to the US, or face a 200% tariff, which increased market risk - aversion sentiment. - Domestic situation: The domestic economy is in a weak recovery stage. In July, economic data showed a decline in both supply and demand. From January to July, the total profit of industrial enterprises above the designated size was 4,020.35 billion yuan, a year - on - year decrease of 1.7% with a narrowing decline of 0.1 percentage points. The overall fundamentals are still under pressure, but market expectations for future economic recovery are positive due to policy support. - Regulatory aspect: Many banks announced strict control of illegal credit funds entering the market, and Guojin Securities raised the margin ratio for margin trading of underlying securities (excluding those on the Beijing Stock Exchange) to 100% on August 26, which cooled market sentiment. - Capital flow: The balance of margin trading has continuously reached new highs, and it is only about 30 billion yuan away from the historical high. There are signs of household deposits flowing into the market, and its sustainability needs to be observed. - Overall view: The US tariff statement and increased regulatory efforts have increased the pressure for the Shanghai Composite Index to break through 3,900. However, the market sentiment remains high, and there is still room for further capital inflow. Long positions can be held, and the trading volume and corporate semi - annual reports need to be monitored. In terms of market style, during market fluctuations, large - cap blue - chip stocks may be more favored by funds, and the CSI 300 and SSE 50 may be more dominant in the short term [7][8]. Industry News - On August 29, the Ministry of Finance released the economic operation of state - owned and state - holding enterprises from January to July 2025. From January to July, the total operating income of state - owned enterprises was 4,731.109 trillion yuan, the same as the previous year.
