1. Report Industry Investment Rating - Not mentioned in the provided content 2. Core View of the Report - The trend of the dividend index reversed today, with the banking sector leading the rise and the dividend index rising 0.52%, performing best among domestic important stock index trends. Except for IH, other stock index futures showed volume - increasing declines, indicating mainly short - position additions. Market sentiment changed today. With a military parade tomorrow, there are large differences between bulls and bears in the market. To avoid the risk of market pull - back, short - position hedging increased in the futures market. Meanwhile, funds were more allocated to defensive high - dividend industries, and there were signs of profit - taking in the previously popular TMT industry, with the electronics, communication, and computer industries leading the decline. Although there were changes in market sentiment, trading volume remained high. Except for the basis of some IH contracts declining, the overall discount of other stock index futures narrowed. So, it's hard to say that the short - term outlook has turned optimistic and needs to be verified in the following trading days [6] 3. Summary According to Related Catalogs Market Review - The stock index showed a volume - increasing oscillation today, and large - scale indexes had different performances. For example, the CSI 300 index closed down 0.74%. The trading volume of the two markets increased by 1250.31 billion yuan.

Group 1: Report Industry Investment Ratings - No industry investment ratings are provided in the report. Group 2: Report Core Views Macro and Financial Futures - Domestic supportive policies are gradually taking effect. In September, policies to promote service consumption will be the focus, which will support the growth of total retail sales of consumer goods to some extent, but the actual effect remains to be seen. Policies in the real - estate sector are advancing, but their impact on the overall market may be limited. The profitability of industrial enterprises has not been fundamentally improved. Overseas, the US economy and employment have shown resilience, and key economic data next week should be closely monitored [2]. - The core issue of the RMB exchange rate is the timing and pace of appreciation. In the short - term, the RMB is likely to appreciate, and the market may reach a "triple - price integration" pattern around 7.10. In the medium - term, the RMB needs a clear downward trend of the US dollar index and substantial positive changes in the domestic economy to achieve a trend - strengthening [4][5]. - As the 9.3 parade approaches, the stock index is expected to have increased volatility. The stock market is expected to be volatile and bullish in the short - term, while the bond market may expand its rebound space if the stock market experiences a high - level adjustment after September 3 [7][8].

The rise of polysilicon is mainly affected by macro - sentiment and the expectation of a possible storage platform in September [29]. - Lead is expected to oscillate within a narrow range, with limited upside and downside [30]. Black Metals - Steel products continue to accumulate inventory beyond the seasonal norm. If demand does not improve, the downward space of the steel futures market depends on the tolerance of steel mills for profit shrinkage.

Its future trend depends on whether downstream demand can maintain high - speed growth [54][55]. - PE is in a pattern of decreasing supply and increasing demand, but the demand recovery is not strong enough to drive the price up significantly. It is expected to oscillate for now [56][57]. - PVC's price has returned to the industrial fundamentals. With high inventory and weak demand, it is advisable to short - allocate it [58][59]. - Pure benzene is expected to be weakly oscillating, and for benzene - styrene, short - selling on the short - term single - side is not recommended. Wait for the end of the decline and then consider low - buying [60][61]. - Fuel oil has a weak rebound driven by cost, but the downward pressure remains.

A low - level purchasing strategy is maintained in the fourth quarter [3]. - The core contradictions affecting copper prices include Fed rate cuts (medium - term bullish), rising domestic spot premiums with copper prices (short - term bullish), relatively low SHFE copper positions (short - term bearish), slightly low refined - scrap spreads (short - term bullish), tight supply (short - to medium - term bullish), and a downward domestic demand outlook (medium - term bearish) [3]. Summary by Content Copper Price Volatility and Risk Management Suggestions - **Price Volatility**: The latest copper price is 79,780 yuan/ton, with a monthly price range forecast of 73,000 - 80,000 yuan/ton. The current volatility is 7.40%, and the historical percentile is 3.3% [2]. - **Risk Management Suggestions**: For inventory management with high finished - product inventory, sell 75% of SHFE copper main futures contracts around 82,000 yuan/ton and sell 25% of CU2511C82000 call options when volatility is relatively stable. For raw material management with low raw material inventory, buy 75% of SHFE copper main futures contracts around 78,000 yuan/ton [2]. Copper Price Influencing Factors - **Bullish Factors**: Rising copper spot premiums with prices, slightly low refined - scrap spreads, and tight supply. SMM expects a 5.25 - ton drop in September electrolytic copper production and low output in October [3]. - **Bearish Factors**: Relatively low SHFE copper positions, and potential negative impacts from the US copper tariff policy leading to extremely high COMEX inventory [3][4].

Report Summary 1. Report Industry Investment Rating - Not provided in the given content 2. Core Viewpoints of the Report - The spot market for soybeans has both weak supply and demand. With the upcoming new - season harvest, price pressure is increasing. Regular auctions are effectively increasing the current supply, and discounted auctions are impacting the spot price system. The consumption recovery represented by the double - festival stocking will face pressure from the new - season harvest, making it difficult for prices to rise. The futures market shows an unchanged bearish trend [3]. 3. Summary by Relevant Catalogs 3.1 Risk Strategies for Soybeans - **Inventory Management for Sellers**: For planting entities with a large demand to sell newly harvested soybeans in autumn but facing significant short - term selling pressure, it is recommended to short the A2511 soybean futures contract with a 30% hedging ratio when the price is between 4000 - 4050 to lock in planting profits. Also, when there is a large - scale listing and the seller's bargaining power weakens, sell the A2511 - C - 4050 call option with a 30% ratio at a price of 50 - 60 to increase the selling price [2]. - **Procurement Management for Buyers**: When worried about rising raw material prices and increased procurement costs, as the probability of price decline is high, it is advisable to mainly wait to purchase spot goods in the medium term and pay attention to long - term procurement management. Focus on the A2603 and A2605 contracts and wait for price guidance in autumn [2]. 3.2 Price Analysis - **Technical and Trend Analysis**: The technical side shows significant pressure, and the bearish trend remains unchanged. From August 29, 2025, to September 1, 2025, the closing prices of various soybean futures contracts increased slightly. For example, the A2511 contract rose from 3945 to 3965 (a 0.51% increase), the A2601 contract rose from 3948 to 3964 (a 0.41% increase), etc. [5]. - **Likely Influencing Factors**: - **Positive Factors**: The remaining grain at the grass - roots level is almost exhausted, and traders' inventory clearance may be low, which limits the price decline. In September, the concentrated consumption scenarios are gradually recovering, and the demand for edible consumption is expected to pick up. The short - side positions have decreased, driving the futures price to rebound [6]. - **Negative Factors**: The quality and yield of the new - season soybeans are expected to improve, and the concentrated supply will be the main driving factor for the fundamentals, continuously pressuring prices. Regular auctions are continuously supplementing the current market supply, and low - price auction grains are impacting the price system of old - season commercial grains [6].

Report Summary 1. Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant content provided. 2. Core Viewpoints - Externally, the weather in the late growth stage of US soybeans has turned slightly dry, and the market's sensitivity to the weather is gradually increasing. In the short term, Sino-US talks have intensified the expectation of a rebound in US soybeans. Domestically, the domestic soybean complex has weakened due to Sino-US talks, and attention should be paid to whether the supply-demand gap in the far - month contracts can open up upward space. The domestic rapeseed complex also has the expectation of Sino - Canadian talks and may show weak sentiment in the short term [4]. - There is a strong bullish sentiment for far - month contracts due to the supply - demand gap. The Brazilian export premium supports the far - month contract prices from the cost side. The Sino - Canadian tariff expectation provides high support for the far - month contracts, but short - term sentiment may suppress the market due to the negotiation expectation. The timing of going long depends on subsequent changes in warehouse receipts [5]. - For soybean meal, the real - world pressure lies in the arrival of the inventory inflection point in September. After the trading logic shifts to far - month contracts, attention should be paid to the subsequent soybean supply. The supply of imported soybeans in China is at a seasonal high, the oil mill crush volume has slightly increased, and soybean meal continues to accumulate inventory seasonally. In terms of demand, the physical inventory has increased seasonally, and consumption remains at a rigid - demand level due to high livestock inventories. The expected soybean arrivals are 10 million tons in September, 9 million tons in October, and 8 million tons in November. Without purchasing US soybeans, a supply gap is expected after the first quarter of next year [6]. 3.

Group 1: Report Industry Investment Rating - There is no information about the report industry investment rating in the provided content. Group 2: Core Viewpoints - The near - term spot price range of caustic soda is relatively stable with no obvious price cuts. The delivery volume of downstream alumina plants continues to increase, but the price remains stable. Alkali plants keep reducing inventory, though the slope slows down. Supply output decreases slightly due to maintenance, which is a normal fluctuation. The cost remains stable, and the chlor - alkali profit stays above 300. Non - aluminum downstream is in the transition between the off - season and peak season, and the non - aluminum rigid demand is expected to increase seasonally. The future market should continue to focus on the spot rhythm, the strength of the peak season, and the downstream restocking enthusiasm [3].

Report Industry Investment Rating - Not provided in the content Core Viewpoints - The recent trading logic is related to the production restrictions on steel mills in Tangshan before the September 3 military parade, leading to a decline in the demand expectation for coke and ferroalloy furnace materials. The previous position limits on coking coal contracts by the exchange have reduced its liquidity, and the hype sentiment has faded, causing most commodities to fall from their highs. Ferroalloys have followed the downward trend of coking coal prices. However, ferroalloy prices have dropped to the level at the beginning of the anti - involution campaign, and the possibility of further decline is limited. There is still support at the bottom, but due to high operating rates and weak downstream demand, there is pressure on the upside. Ferroalloy profits have been declining, and production is at a relatively high level in the past five years, with weak incentives for further production increases and a possibility of production cuts. With production restrictions on steel mills before the parade and no significant improvement in demand, ferroalloy inventories may shift from destocking to stockpiling. The price difference between the main raw materials of ferrosilicon and silicomanganese, semi - coke and manganese ore, is gradually widening, and it is cost - effective to go long on the price difference between the two silicons. It is recommended to go long on the 01 price difference of the two silicons at - 400 [4]. Summary by Relevant Catalogs Ferroalloy Price Range Forecast - The monthly price range forecast for ferrosilicon is 5300 - 6000, with a current 20 - day rolling volatility of 20.32% and a 3 - year historical percentile of 54.1%. The monthly price range forecast for silicomanganese is also 5300 - 6000, with a current 20 - day rolling volatility of 15.84% and a 3 - year historical percentile of 30.1% [3]. Ferroalloy Hedging Inventory Management - For enterprises with high finished - product inventories worried about ferroalloy price drops, they can short ferroalloy futures (SF2511, SM2601) to lock in profits and cover production costs. The selling direction is recommended, with a hedging ratio of 15% and an entry range of 6200 - 6250 for SF and 6400 - 6500 for SM [3]. Procurement Management - For enterprises with low regular procurement inventories and aiming to purchase according to orders, they can buy ferroalloy futures (SF2511, SM2601) at present to lock in procurement costs in advance. The buying direction is recommended, with a hedging ratio of 25% and an entry range of 5100 - 5200 for SF and 5300 - 5400 for SM [3]. 利多解读 Ferrosilicon - The demand for ferrosilicon in five major steel products is 2.06 tons, a month - on - month increase of 1.48%. Ferrosilicon warehouse receipts are 9.92 tons, a month - on - month decrease of 3.13%, and the total inventory is 16.21 tons, a month - on - month decrease of 1.46% [7]. Silicomanganese - The government's strict control policies on high - energy - consuming industries may lead to industrial structure adjustment and upgrading in the silicomanganese industry. The demand for silicomanganese in five major steel products is 12.67 tons, a month - on - month increase of 1.12%. Silicomanganese enterprise inventories are 14.9 tons, a month - on - month decrease of 4.49%, warehouse receipts are 33.28 tons, a month - on - month decrease of 5.05%, and the total inventory is 48.18 tons, a month - on - month decrease of 4.88% [8]. 利空解读 Ferrosilicon - The supply of ferroalloys is at a high level in the past five years, with significant supply pressure. In the absence of improved downstream demand, its growth space is limited. Ferrosilicon enterprise inventories are 6.29 tons, a month - on - month increase of 1.29% [8]. Silicomanganese - In the long run, the real - estate market is sluggish, the black - related sector has declined, and there are doubts about the growth of steel terminal demand, resulting in relatively weak silicomanganese demand. Silicomanganese production is 21.34 tons, a month - on - month increase of 1.04%, and the Chinese enterprise operating rate is 47%, a month - on - month increase of 0.63% [8]. Daily Data Ferrosilicon - On September 1, 2025, the basis in Ningxia was 18, 01 - 05 was - 124, 05 - 09 was 284, 09 - 01 was - 160.
