Report Industry Investment Rating - No relevant content provided Core View of the Report - The lithium carbonate market may continue its volatile upward trend in the short term, but its upward space is still limited by the oversupply on the supply side. The fundamental contradiction remains prominent, and the growth in new energy vehicle sales has not yet translated into restocking momentum for the material sector. The midstream continues to use the customer-supplied model to avoid exposure risks. Additionally, the expansion of the spot discount to over a thousand yuan will attract arbitrage funds, and attention should be paid to the risk of a pullback under inventory pressure. Key factors to monitor include the production schedule of cathode materials and the seasonal production rhythm of Qinghai Salt Lakes [3] Summary According to Relevant Catalogs 1. Daily Market Summary - **Main Contract and Basis**: On July 8, the main contract of lithium carbonate was reported at 63,880 yuan/ton, a slight increase of 0.35% from the previous day. The basis continued to weaken, and the spot discount to the futures widened to -1,080 yuan, indicating a divergence in the expectation of improved long-term supply and demand [1] - **Position and Trading Volume**: The position of the main contract increased significantly by 15,500 lots in a single day, and the trading volume soared by 155.69% to 545,000 lots, reaching a new high in the past week, intensifying the game between long and short funds [1] 2. Analysis of Industrial Chain Supply, Demand, and Inventory Changes - **Supply Side**: Short-term disturbing factors have increased. The capacity utilization rate of lithium salt plants decreased by 1 percentage point to 61.8% month-on-month, but the pressure of medium-term supply expansion still exists. The raw material prices remained stalemate, with the prices of spodumene concentrate and lepidolite concentrate remaining flat in the past two weeks [2] - **Demand Side**: There was a marginal improvement but limited elasticity. In June, the retail sales of new energy vehicles reached 1.071 million units, a year-on-year increase of 25%, and the penetration rate exceeded 52.7%, with terminal data exceeding expectations. However, the transmission to the cathode material sector was limited. Ternary materials and lithium iron phosphate only saw a slight increase, the cell prices remained stable across the board, and midstream procurement was still mainly based on long-term agreements, with a low willingness to replenish inventory with spot orders [2] - **Inventory and Warehouse Receipts**: The inventory accumulation pressure in the industrial chain continued. The total inventory of lithium carbonate increased by 1,510 tons month-on-month to 138,347 tons, rising for four consecutive weeks [2] 3. Market Summary - The lithium carbonate market may continue its volatile upward pattern in the short term, but the upward space is still limited by the oversupply on the supply side. Attention should be paid to the risk of a pullback under inventory pressure, and key factors to monitor include the production schedule of cathode materials and the seasonal production rhythm of Qinghai Salt Lakes [3] 4. Industrial Chain Price Monitoring - The main contract of lithium carbonate, battery-grade lithium carbonate, power-type ternary materials, and power-type lithium iron phosphate all saw slight increases on July 8 compared to the previous day, while the prices of lithium concentrate, lithium hexafluorophosphate, and various types of cells remained unchanged [5] - The capacity utilization rate of lithium carbonate decreased by 1 percentage point to 61.8% compared to July 4, and the inventory increased by 1,510 tons to 138,347 tons [5] 5. Industry Dynamics and Interpretation - **Spot Market Quotations**: On July 8, the SMM battery-grade lithium carbonate index price was 62,788 yuan/ton, a daily increase of 306 yuan/ton. The average price of battery-grade lithium carbonate was 62,900 yuan/ton, and that of industrial-grade lithium carbonate was 61,300 yuan/ton, both increasing by 350 yuan/ton. The spot transaction price of lithium carbonate continued to oscillate upward. In the future, the price may maintain a low-level volatile trend, and attention should be paid to the change in actual demand increments [6] - **Downstream Consumption Situation**: In June, the retail sales of the national new energy passenger vehicle market were 1.071 million units, a year-on-year increase of 25%, and the wholesale volume was 1.259 million units, a year-on-year increase of 28% [7] - **Industry News**: Multiple companies announced production expansion and technological transformation plans, including the construction of the "Mamico Salt Lake Mining Project" by Tibet Ali Mamico Mining Development Co., Ltd., the technological transformation project of a 25,000-ton lithium salt production line by Zhongkuang Resources (Jiangxi) Lithium Industry Co., Ltd., etc [8][9] 6. Appendix: Large Model Inference Process - The futures price of lithium carbonate has rebounded, but it is constrained by high inventory and weak demand, and may maintain a low-level volatile trend in the future. Attention should be paid to whether there is a substantial improvement in subsequent demand or more adjustments on the supply side [30][31]
原油、燃料油日报:亚洲溢价显著推升原油市场,多空博弈进入拉锯阶段-20250709
Tong Hui Qi Huo· 2025-07-09 11:07
亚洲溢价显著推升原油市场 多空博弈进入拉锯阶段 一、日度市场总结 从原油期货数据来看,中国SC原油价格单日上涨1.67%至510.7元/桶,而 WTI和Brent连续两日维持67.92和69.6美元/桶不变,凸显亚洲市场活跃度 提升。价差层面,SC-Brent和SC-WTI价差分别扩大290%和57%,创出1.6和 3.28美元/桶新高,反映中国原油期货相对外盘的溢价显著增强。与此同 时,SC近月合约升水连3合约价差从14.8元扩大到17.8元,近月合约强势表 明短期交割品存在结构性紧缺。 供需格局变化显示多重博弈。供应端利空因素正在积聚:沙特4月原油出口 环比增加41.2万桶/日,印证OPEC+产量政策松动;利比亚大型油田重启勘 探及美国与印尼签署原油采购协议,均指向中长期供应增量。但中东地缘 风险提供支撑,以色列与胡塞武装冲突升级刺激油价盘中反弹,不过市场 普遍认为冲突扩散概率较低。需求端呈现区域分化:山东独立炼厂本周到 港量环比下滑7.5%至136.5万吨,反映中国地方炼厂采购节奏放缓,但欧美 旺季需求强劲成为支撑,IEA口径表观消费增速超预期推动WTI盘中收复跌 幅。 库存变化释放微妙信号。中质含硫原 ...
铜淡季供需承压,震荡格局持续
Tong Hui Qi Huo· 2025-07-09 11:03
Report Investment Rating No information provided on the industry investment rating. Core View The copper market may continue its low-level oscillation in the next 1 - 2 weeks. The contradiction between stable domestic smelting capacity release and tight overseas LME inventory on the supply side, combined with the deepening off - season and high copper prices suppressing procurement on the demand side, makes it difficult for orders in the construction and electronics sectors to support prices. Macroeconomic factors such as the repeated expectations of the Fed's interest rate cuts and the weak domestic economic recovery also suppress the valuation of commodities [3]. Summary by Directory 1. Daily Market Summary - **Market Data Changes**: On July 8, the SHFE copper main contract closed at 79,510 yuan/ton, up 0.13% from the previous trading day. The basis weakened significantly, with the premium of flat - copper dropping from 80 yuan/ton on July 2 to 55 yuan/ton, and the premium/discount of wet - copper widening from - 5 yuan/ton to - 40 yuan/ton. The LME (0 - 3) premium fell to 79.8 dollars/ton. The SHFE copper's inter - month BACK spread narrowed from 250 yuan/ton to 190 yuan/ton. The LME copper's open interest decreased by 3,072 lots to 281,488 lots on July 7, and the SHFE inventory increased to 102,500 tons in a single week [1]. - **Supply - Demand and Inventory Changes**: On the supply side, domestic supply remained stable with high utilization of smelting capacity, while overseas LME inventory decreased continuously. On the demand side, the off - season effect deepened, with weak demand in the power and electronics sectors. The copper cable operating rate was 72.41% with a 7.52% increase in finished product inventory, and the copper strip processing fee collapsed. The operating rates of various industries were expected to decline further in July. On the inventory side, the inventory differentiation intensified, with the continuous decline of LME inventory possibly reflecting European restocking demand, while the SHFE inventory exceeded 100,000 tons due to weak domestic consumption [2]. - **Market Conclusion**: The copper market may continue its low - level oscillation in the next 1 - 2 weeks due to the supply - demand contradiction and macro - level factors [3]. 2. Industrial Chain Price Monitoring - **Price Data**: On July 8, 2025, the SMM:1 copper price was 79,910 yuan/ton, down 0.09% from July 7. The premium of premium copper was 115 yuan/ton, down 8.00%. The premium of flat - copper was 55 yuan/ton, down 21.43%. The premium/discount of wet - copper was - 40 yuan/ton, down 300.00%. The LME (0 - 3) was 51 dollars/ton, down 35.70%. The SHFE price was 79,510 yuan/ton, up 0.13%. The LME price was 9,665 dollars/ton, down 1.22% [5]. - **Inventory Data**: The LME inventory was 19,109 tons, down 11.87% from July 7. The SHFE inventory was 102,500 tons, up 5.24%. The COMEX inventory was 221,788 short tons, up 0.15% [5]. 3. Industrial Dynamics and Interpretation - **Enterprise Projects**: On July 2, China Copper Industry established a mining research institute. Northern Copper's calendered copper foil production capacity is 5000 tons/year [6]. - **Industry Operating Rates**: In June, the operating rate of SMM copper cable enterprises decreased by 9.27% month - on - month to 72.41%, and is expected to drop to 71.98% in July. The copper strip processing fee declined significantly, and the operating rate in June was 67.44%, expected to drop to 63.44% in July [6]. 4. Industrial Chain Data Charts The report includes charts on China PMI, US PMI, US employment, the correlation between the US dollar index and LME copper price, the correlation between US interest rates and LME copper price, TC processing fees, CFTC copper open interest, LME copper net long positions, SHFE copper warehouse receipts, LME copper inventory changes, COMEX copper inventory changes, and SMM social inventory [7][9][13][16][18][22][23][26][27].

1. Report Industry Investment Rating - Not provided in the given content 2. Core Viewpoints of the Report - As of July 7, 2025, the crude oil market showed mixed characteristics. Short - term oil prices are expected to remain high and volatile, with the central price likely to rise by $2 - 3. OPEC+ production increase and geopolitical risks offset each other, and the actual production increase effect depends on Saudi Arabia's production release rhythm [2][3]. - The inventory structure shows regional differentiation. The tension in the Middle East may delay the crude oil shipping cycle, and the disruption of Red Sea transportation may trigger European refineries' restocking demand [3]. - The demand in the Indian market provides support. In June, gasoline consumption increased by 6.9% year - on - year, and the total fuel consumption reached 20.31 million tons. The increasing willingness of Asian refineries to start operations drives the cracking profit to expand [2]. 3. Summary by Relevant Catalogs 3.1 Daily Market Summary - **Price Performance**: SC crude oil futures prices fell slightly by 0.24% to 502.3 yuan/barrel, but the post - market main contract rebounded 2.13% to 512 yuan/barrel. WTI slightly declined by 0.06% to 66.46 dollars/barrel, while Brent rose 1.59% to 69.6 dollars/barrel. The Brent - WTI spread strengthened by 56% to 3.14 dollars/barrel, and the SC - Brent cross - regional arbitrage space narrowed by 77% to 0.41 dollars/barrel [2]. - **Supply - side**: OPEC+ plans to approve a production increase of 550,000 barrels per day in September on August 3, but the implementation effect is questionable. The Israeli air strike on the oil facilities in the port of Hodeidah has intensified the supply - chain risks in the Red Sea route [2]. - **Demand - side**: In June, India's gasoline consumption increased by 6.9% year - on - year, and the total fuel consumption reached 20.31 million tons. The increasing willingness of Asian refineries to start operations drives the cracking profit to expand, and the main contract of low - sulfur fuel oil rose 2% during the day [2]. - **Inventory and Spread**: The inventory structure shows regional differentiation. The SC spread (SC continuous 1 - continuous 3) narrowed to 14.8 yuan/barrel, and the Brent monthly spread structure remained steep [3]. - **Price Forecast**: Short - term oil prices are expected to remain high and volatile, with the central price likely to rise by $2 - 3. The production increase decision of OPEC+ and geopolitical risks offset each other. Technically, Brent has the momentum to rise further after breaking through the $69 resistance level, while WTI faces strong pressure around $67.5 [3]. 3.2 Industrial Chain Price Monitoring - **Crude Oil**: The prices of SC, WTI, and Brent futures showed different trends. Key spreads such as Brent - WTI and SC - Brent changed significantly. The US commercial crude oil inventory increased by 0.93%, and the Cushing inventory decreased by 6.72%. The US refinery weekly operating rate increased by 0.21% [5]. - **Fuel Oil**: The prices of various fuel oil futures and spot products showed different changes. The Singapore inventory increased by 3.91%. The Chinese high - low sulfur spread increased by 2.60% [6]. 3.3 Industrial Dynamics and Interpretation - **Supply**: OPEC+ oil - producing countries will approve a significant production increase of about 550,000 barrels per day in September on August 3 [7]. - **Demand**: In June, India's diesel sales increased by 1.6% year - on - year, gasoline sales increased by 6.9% year - on - year, and the fuel sales reached 20.31 million tons [9]. - **Inventory**: The main contract of low - sulfur fuel oil (LU) rose 2.00% during the day. The futures warehouse receipts of fuel oil and medium - sulfur crude oil remained unchanged [10]. - **Market Information**: As of 2:30 on July 8, the SC crude oil main contract rose 2.13%. The Brent crude oil futures price rose more than $1 during the day, and the night - session futures main contracts of the crude oil series all rose [10].

Report Summary 1. Report Industry Investment Rating No investment rating information is provided in the report. 2. Core Viewpoints - The pure benzene market shows a pattern of increasing supply and demand. Supply is boosted by the restart of some plants and new production lines, while demand has mostly recovered to pre - second - quarter levels. Port inventory is likely to accumulate, and the potential early production of Yulong Petrochemical's pure benzene plant has affected market sentiment and widened the price difference with styrene [3]. - The styrene market's supply - demand pattern is weakening. Supply pressure is increasing as weekly production reaches a historical high, and demand from downstream industries is softening. Port inventory is rising, and styrene has entered an inventory - building phase. Attention should be paid to the basis adjustment rhythm and the commissioning progress of Yulong Petrochemical's disproportionation unit [4]. 3. Summary by Directory 3.1.
