1. Report Industry Investment Rating - No information provided in the report 2. Core Views of the Report - The strengthening of the Fed's interest rate cut expectation provides positive support for the lead price. Meanwhile, the concentrated maintenance of primary lead and secondary lead smelters eases the supply - demand pressure, and capital inflows drive the lead price up. However, demand is difficult to improve significantly. With the resumption of production of some primary lead smelters under maintenance and the possible marginal increase in supply after the secondary lead profit is restored due to the rise in lead price, it is expected that the upward momentum of lead price is limited. Investors should be cautious about chasing the rise and beware of the risk of a high - level decline [4][8] 3. Summary According to Relevant Catalogs 3.1 Transaction Data - From September 5th to 12th, the SHFE lead price rose from 16,900 yuan/ton to 17,040 yuan/ton, an increase of 140 yuan/ton; the LME lead price rose from 1,988 dollars/ton to 2,019 dollars/ton, an increase of 31 dollars/ton; the Shanghai - London ratio decreased from 8.50 to 8.44, a decrease of 0.06; the SHFE inventory decreased from 66,834 tons to 66,561 tons, a decrease of 273 tons; the LME inventory decreased from 248,200 tons to 229,575 tons, a decrease of 18,625 tons; the social inventory increased from 3.59 million tons to 3.94 million tons, an increase of 0.35 million tons; the spot premium remained at - 125 yuan/ton [5] 3.2 Market Review - Last week, the SHFE lead main contract PB2510 fluctuated narrowly in the first half - week and soared on Friday afternoon, closing at 17,040 yuan/ton, with a weekly increase of 0.83%. The LME lead price first declined and then rose, closing at 2,019 dollars/ton, with a weekly increase of 1.56%. In the spot market, on September 12th, the lead prices in Shanghai and Jiangsu - Zhejiang markets were at a discount to the SHFE 2510 contract. Downstream enterprises mainly made long - term order purchases and were hesitant about high - priced goods [6] - As of September 12th, the LME weekly inventory was 248,200 tons, a weekly decrease of 18,625 tons; the SHFE inventory was 66,561 tons, a decrease of 273 tons from the previous week.

Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant content provided. Core Viewpoints - Last week, copper prices fluctuated upwards. The main reasons were that the overall CPI in the US in August was moderately controllable with limited month - on - month increase, and the employment market remained weak. The market actively bet on 2 - 3 interest rate cuts within the year. Trump's arrangement of his White House economic advisor as a director might further interfere with the Fed's policy independence, and the weakening of the US dollar index boosted copper prices. Fundamentally, major mines maintained supply disruptions, there were expectations of refined copper production cuts in China, emerging industries had rapid consumption growth, and there was a risk of further decline in social inventories. The B - structure of the near - month contract slightly narrowed [2]. - Weak employment data increased the Fed's pressure to cut interest rates this month, and the low - inflation environment provided a favorable basis for a full - scale shift to a loose policy path. Trump's appointment of new directors might speed up his intervention in the future federal funds rate. In addition, the month - on - month decline of CPI in August but the narrowing of PPI decline, and the stable export growth. Driven by the expectation of growth - stabilizing policies, the sentiment in the domestic capital market was high. Fundamentally, the interference rate at overseas mine ends continued to rise, refined copper production was expected to decline. With the arrival of the consumption peak season in September and October, the tight - balance structure in China would intensify, and it was expected that copper prices would enter a stage of fluctuating upward in the short term [3][11]. Summary by Directory 1. Market Data - Price changes: From September 5th to September 12th, LME copper rose from $9,865.00/ton to $10,064.50/ton, a 2.02% increase; COMEX copper rose from $454.35 cents/pound to $464.8 cents/pound, a 2.30% increase; SHFE copper rose from 80,140 yuan/ton to 81,060 yuan/ton, a 1.15% increase; international copper rose from 71,130 yuan/ton to 72,030 yuan/ton, a 1.27% increase. The Shanghai - London ratio decreased from 8.12 to 8.05. The LME spot premium dropped from -$68.04/ton to -$73.42/ton, a 7.91% decline, and the Shanghai spot premium dropped from 165 yuan/ton to 85 yuan/ton [4]. - Inventory changes: As of September 12th, the total inventory of LME, COMEX, SHFE, and Shanghai bonded area increased to 635,473 tons. LME copper inventory decreased by 4,000 tons (-2.53%), COMEX inventory increased by 5,142 short tons (1.68%), SHFE inventory increased by 12,203 tons (14.91%), and Shanghai bonded area inventory decreased by 3,200 tons (-3.99%) [7]. 2. Market Analysis and Outlook - Copper price trend: Last week, copper prices fluctuated upwards. The reasons were related to the US economic data and policy expectations, as well as the fundamentals of supply and demand. The total global inventory continued to rise, and the US dollar index's limited rebound led to the Shanghai - London ratio remaining at a relatively low level [8]. - Macroeconomic situation: In the US, the number of initial jobless claims last week reached 263,000, a month - on - month increase of 27,000, far exceeding the expected median of 235,000. The actual number of new non - farm jobs in the past 12 months ending in March was 911,000 less than previously reported. The 8 - month CPI increased by 0.2% month - on - month and 2.9% year - on - year, and the PPI decreased by 0.1% month - on - month, lower than the expected 0.3% increase. The market continued to bet on 2 - 3 interest rate cuts within the year. The ECB maintained key interest rates unchanged, and the euro - zone inflation was under control. In China, the CPI in August was -0.4% year - on - year, and the core CPI excluding food and energy was +0.9% year - on - year. The PPI decline narrowed [9]. - Supply and demand situation: Globally, the mine - end supply remained tight and was transmitted to the smelting end. In China, refined copper production in September might continue to decline. The supply of scrap copper tightened, and the profitability of small and medium - sized smelters was limited. On the demand side, power grid investment projects would speed up, the copper cable industry's operating rate was expected to return to about 80%. The demand for new energy vehicles would enter the peak season, and social inventories might decline further. The tight - balance structure would intensify [10]. 3. Industry News - Import data: In August, China's imports of copper ore and concentrates were 275.93 tons, a year - on - year increase of 7.4%, and the cumulative imports from January to August reached 2,007.7 tons, a year - on - year increase of 8%. Imports of unwrought copper and copper products in August were 42.5 tons, and the cumulative imports from January to August were 353.6 tons, a year - on - year decrease of 2.1%. In July, the copper production of Codelco and Escondida increased year - on - year, while the production of Collahuasi decreased by 27.2% year - on - year [12]. - Panama copper mine: The Panamanian government plans to negotiate with First Quantum Minerals about the possible restart of the Panama copper mine at the end of this year or early 2026. A comprehensive environmental audit will be carried out first, which is expected to take 3 - 4 months. Before the shutdown, the mine's annual copper production was 35 tons, and its contribution to Panama's GDP was about 5%. The shutdown has caused an estimated economic loss of $1.7 billion [13]. - Freeport - McMoRan: An accident at the Grasberg mine in Indonesia led to 7 workers being trapped underground, and the mine's operation was suspended. The company's stock price fell by 5.81% on Tuesday. The Grasberg mining area has an annual copper production capacity of about 771,100 tons and a gold production capacity of 1.4 million ounces [14][15]. 4. Related Charts - Multiple charts showed the trends of copper prices (including SHFE copper, LME copper, COMEX copper), inventories (LME, COMEX, SHFE, Shanghai bonded area), spreads (LME spot premium, Shanghai spot premium, etc.), ratios (Shanghai - London ratio), and other indicators, as well as the net long - position ratio of non - commercial traders in COMEX copper and the net position change of LME copper investment funds [17][21][40].

Group 1: Report Investment Rating - No information provided on the industry investment rating Group 2: Core Views - Macro aspect: US non - farm employment data was significantly revised downward, with obvious signs of a weakening labor market. Inflation pressure eased, and the market's expectation of a Fed rate cut in September was almost fully priced in, with a more optimistic view on the subsequent rate - cut path. The ECB kept interest rates unchanged for two consecutive periods, and Lagarde sent hawkish signals, indicating that Europe's fight against inflation might be temporarily over, and trade friction risks should be watched out for [3]. - Fundamental aspect: The supply of nickel ore in Indonesia remained abundant. APNI slightly lowered the domestic trade benchmark price of Indonesian nickel ore by 0.75 percentage points, and the spot premium was stable. The price of ferronickel still had an upward trend, but steel mills' purchasing intensity was poor, and the upward process was slow. The pure nickel market was relatively quiet, with downstream buyers purchasing at low prices and strong market wait - and - see sentiment, and there was no obvious improvement in the fundamentals [3]. - Future outlook: With the warm macro - expectations and technical corrections, nickel prices are expected to rise. As the labor market weakens and inflation pressure eases, the market's expectation of a Fed rate cut in September continues to rise. Technically, the main contract has reached the lower limit of the range, showing bullish signals. The industrial side has no obvious driving force, and although there is an expectation of cost loosening, a significant decline is not likely. It is expected that nickel prices will fluctuate upward under the joint drive of macro and technical factors [3][11][12]. Group 3: Summary by Directory 1. Market Data Summary - SHFE nickel price on September 12, 2025, was 121,980 yuan/ton, up 670 yuan/ton from September 5. LME nickel price was 15,391 dollars/ton, up 156 dollars/ton. LME inventory increased by 9,666 tons to 225,084 tons, and SHFE inventory increased by 1,851 tons to 23,529 tons. The premium of Jinchuan nickel increased by 200 yuan/ton, while that of Russian nickel decreased by 100 yuan/ton. The average price of high - nickel pig iron remained unchanged at 961 yuan/nickel point, and stainless steel inventory decreased by 26,400 tons to 834,000 tons [4]. 2. Market Review - **Macro**: On September 9, the US non - farm benchmark correction data showed a significant weakening of the labor market, and inflation pressure eased. The market almost surely expected the Fed to start cutting rates in September, with some expecting a 50 - basis - point cut [5]. - **Nickel ore**: The FOB price of 1.5% laterite nickel ore in the Philippines and Indonesia remained stable. The APNI lowered the domestic trade benchmark price of Indonesian nickel ore by 0.75 percentage points. Nickel iron plants were cautious in purchasing due to cost pressure, and the nickel ore price did not weaken significantly, with the spot premium remaining flat. Attention should be paid to the impact of the RKAB approval in October in Indonesia [6]. - **Pure nickel**: In August, China's refined nickel production was 35,200 tons, a year - on - year increase of 20.55%. The monthly production capacity was about 53,699 tons, and the operating rate increased by 4.92 percentage points. In July, China's refined nickel imports increased significantly by about 703% year - on - year, mainly from Russia and Norway. The export scale in July increased by 1.73% year - on - year. As of September 4, the average monthly export profit of refined nickel had further declined. Overall, the supply of refined nickel was abundant, but the recent price increase of MHP and high - grade nickel matte in Indonesia might limit the further increase in supply [7][8]. - **Ferronickel**: The price of high - nickel pig iron increased from 945.5 yuan/nickel point to 953.5 yuan/nickel point. In August, China's nickel pig iron production was 25,280 metal tons, a month - on - month increase of 11.77%, and Indonesia's production was 137,900 nickel tons, a year - on - year and month - on - month increase of 13.67% and 2.6% respectively. As of August 31, the ferronickel inventory decreased significantly. Although the ferronickel price continued to rise, the high - grade nickel matte price also strengthened, and it was expected that Indonesia's ferronickel production would remain stable month - on - month. In July, China's ferronickel imports increased by 1.83% year - on - year, mainly from Indonesia, and imports from Colombia decreased while those from New Caledonia increased [8]. - **Stainless steel**: In August, the production plan of 300 - series stainless steel in China increased year - on - year and month - on - month. In September, steel mills' production plans increased significantly month - on - month, but the increase in 300 - series stainless steel was limited, and it was difficult to drive a significant increase in ferronickel consumption [9]. - **Nickel sulfate**: The prices of battery - grade and electroplating - grade nickel sulfate increased. In August, the metal output of nickel sulfate decreased year - on - year but increased month - on - month. The production of ternary materials increased both year - on - year and month - on - month. As of September 5, the downstream and upstream inventory days of nickel sulfate remained stable. Overall, the supply and demand of the nickel sulfate market were both strong, but the growth rate of nickel sulfate production was lower than that of ternary materials, and the demand outlook was not optimistic [9]. - **New energy**: From September 1 - 7, the retail sales of new - energy passenger vehicles in China decreased year - on - year and month - on - month. The decline was due to the high sales base in August 2024, the concentrated settlement of pre - ordered orders in early August 2025, and the new subsidy policy focusing more on quality rather than quantity, with limited subsidy amounts and quantities, making it difficult to drive significant consumption growth [9]. - **Inventory**: The current six - location social inventory of pure nickel was 41,055 tons, an increase of 1,125 tons from the previous period. SHFE inventory increased by 1,851 tons to 23,529 tons, and LME nickel inventory increased by 9,666 tons to 205,084 tons. The total inventory of the two major global exchanges increased by 11,517 tons to 248,613 tons [10]. 3. Industry News - Indonesia seized part of the world's largest nickel mine due to violations of forestry license regulations, which was expected to affect the monthly nickel ore output by about 600 metal tons [13]. - The energy and mineral resources department of Indonesia granted an operation license to PT Gag Nikel in Raja Ampat, West Papua [13]. - The Indonesian Nickel Miners Association (APNI) announced the domestic trade benchmark price of nickel ore in September (first phase), which decreased by about 0.75% compared with the reference price in August (second phase) [13]. - First Atlantic Nickel expanded the mineralization zone of natural nickel - iron ore in its Atlantic nickel project in Canada, which is expected to provide a cleaner and more efficient nickel source for the North American market [13]. 4. Related Charts - The report includes charts on the price trends of domestic and foreign nickel, spot premium trends, LME 0 - 3 nickel premium, domestic - to - foreign nickel ratio, nickel futures inventory, nickel ore port inventory, high - nickel iron price, 300 - series stainless steel price, and stainless steel inventory [15][17][19][22]

Report Investment Rating - Not provided in the content Core Viewpoints - The revision of the US non - farm payroll data截止March this year by 911,000, the lowest since 2000, indicates weak employment. The US 8 - month PPI was lower than expected and CPI met expectations, leading to high expectations of a Fed rate cut in September. Chinese economic data were mixed: the export growth rate declined in August, the core CPI rose steadily, and the new social financing scale exceeded expectations [3]. - On the fundamental side, the operating capacity of the electrolytic aluminum supply side was basically stable, but the proportion of molten aluminum continued to increase, and the subsequent supply of aluminum ingots was expected to decrease. The downstream aluminum processing开工率rebounded last week, but there were differences among sectors. The social inventory of aluminum ingots decreased to 625,000 tons, 1,000 tons less than last Thursday; the aluminum rod inventory was 132,500 tons, 7,500 tons less than last Thursday [3]. - Overall, the expectation of a Fed rate cut in September was strengthened, market risk appetite increased, and the aluminum price was supported. The operating capacity on the supply side was stable, and the supply of aluminum ingots might decrease. Consumption improved marginally, and the social inventory of aluminum ingots showed signs of destocking. Both the macro and fundamental aspects were positive, supporting the aluminum price to break through the previous high and remain strong in the short term [3]. Summary by Directory 1. Transaction Data - The price of LME aluminum for 3 months increased from 2,602.5 yuan/ton on September 5, 2025, to 2,701 yuan/ton on September 12, 2025, a rise of 98.5 yuan/ton.

Market Review - The average weekly price of the spot market was 20,818 yuan/ton, a rise of 162 yuan/ton compared with last week; the average weekly price of the Southern Storage spot was 20,762 yuan/ton, a rise of 154 yuan/ton compared with last week [5]. - In the macro - aspect, the US non - farm employment was revised down by 911,000 as of March this year. The US 8 - month PPI inflation unexpectedly declined, and the CPI was in line with expectations. The initial jobless claims in the US last week increased by 27,000 to 263,000, the highest since October 2021. China's 8 - month import and export value increased by 3.5% year - on - year.

Market Outlook - The macro - aspect strengthened the expectation of a Fed rate cut in September, increasing market risk appetite and supporting the aluminum price. However, attention should be paid to whether the Fed's interest rate decision on Thursday morning would lead to the situation of "buy on rumor, sell on news". The fundamental supply side had stable operating capacity, and the supply of aluminum ingots might decrease. Consumption improved marginally, and the social inventory of aluminum ingots showed signs of destocking. Both the macro and fundamental aspects were positive, supporting the aluminum price to break through the previous high and remain strong in the short term [7]. 4. Industry News - In August, the production and sales of automobiles were 2.815 million and 2.857 million respectively, with a month - on - month increase of 8.7% and 10.1% and a year - on - year increase of 13% and 16.4%.

Summaries by Related Catalogs 3.1 Macro - Overseas: The non - over - expected CPI and cold initial jobless claims in the US in August strengthened the interest rate cut trading. The US 8 - month CPI was 2.9% year - on - year, core CPI was 3.1%, both in line with expectations and flat compared to July.

The eurozone central bank maintained interest rates unchanged in September and raised growth and inflation expectations [2]. - Domestic: The A - share market rose on heavy volume, with over 4000 stocks rising and the trading volume reaching 2.4 trillion. The ChiNext and STAR Market led the gains. The bond market fluctuated sharply, with the unilateral rise of A - shares suppressing the bond market, but the marginal loosening of the capital side and the discussion of the central bank's restart of bond - buying drove the bond market to stop falling and rebound [3]. 3.2 Precious Metals - International precious metal futures prices closed mixed on Thursday. COMEX gold futures fell 0.23% to $3673.40 per ounce, and COMEX silver futures rose 1.12% to $42.07 per ounce. The market's expectation of the Fed's interest rate cut was strengthened, but the international gold price slightly declined due to long - position closing. It is expected that gold and silver prices will maintain a high - level oscillation before the Fed's interest rate cut on the 18th [4][5]. 3.3 Copper - On Thursday, the main contract of Shanghai copper oscillated upwards, and London copper approached the previous high of the year. The consumption in the domestic peak season is expected to return, and the market continues to bet on 2 - 3 interest rate cuts within the year. It is expected that copper prices will enter an oscillating upward trend in the short term [6][7]. 3.4 Aluminum - On Thursday, the main contract of Shanghai aluminum closed at 20,915 yuan/ton, up 0.63%. The LME closed at $2622/ton, up 0.21%. The social inventories of aluminum ingots and aluminum rods are both in the process of destocking, indicating that the peak - season consumption is gradually being realized. The short - term macro - environment and fundamentals are both positive, and aluminum prices will continue to show a strong performance [8][9]. 3.5 Alumina - On Thursday, the main contract of alumina futures closed at 2945 yuan/ton, up 0.79%. The supply - side pressure of alumina still exists, and the market is dominated by a bearish atmosphere. It continues to be under pressure. Attention should be paid to the cost support [10]. 3.6 Zinc - On Thursday, the main contract of Shanghai zinc oscillated narrowly during the day and shifted slightly upward at night. The social inventory in China continues to increase, which exerts pressure on zinc prices, but the inventory accumulation speed has slowed down. With the gradual recovery of consumption, destocking is still expected. Zinc prices will operate in a low - level oscillation in the short term [11]. 3.7 Lead - On Thursday, the main contract of Shanghai lead oscillated during the day and opened lower and moved higher at night. The high inventory exerts pressure on lead prices. It is expected that lead prices will maintain a weak oscillation before consumption improves [12]. 3.8 Tin - On Thursday, the main contract of Shanghai tin oscillated horizontally during the day and showed a strong oscillation at night. The low - level LME inventory still supports tin prices. It is expected that tin prices will follow the non - ferrous metal sector to repair with a strong oscillation in the short term [13][14]. 3.9 Industrial Silicon - On Thursday, the main contract of industrial silicon rebounded from a low level. The supply side shows a passive contraction trend, and the demand side has different performances in each link. The industrial silicon social inventory continues to decline, and the spot market stabilizes. It is expected that the futures price will maintain an oscillation in the short term [15][16]. 3.10 Lithium Carbonate - On Thursday, the price of lithium carbonate oscillated, and the spot price weakened. The short - term market still focuses on the resource game around the lithium mine event. Although the spot inventory is being destocked, more resources are flowing to the exchange. The lithium price may oscillate around the resource game [17]. 3.11 Nickel - On Thursday, the nickel price oscillated strongly. The US labor market shows signs of weakness, and the inflation pressure slows down. The market's expectation of the Fed's subsequent interest rate cut path is more dovish. The nickel price may oscillate strongly driven by the macro - environment [18][19]. 3.12 Crude Oil - On Thursday, the oil price oscillated. The views of OPEC and IEA are divergent. The market may be more inclined to the IEA's view, and the expectation of supply surplus may put pressure on oil prices in the medium and long term. However, short - term geopolitical risks are rising, and it is expected that the oil price will oscillate [20][21]. 3.13 Steel (Screw and Coil) - On Thursday, steel futures oscillated weakly. The steel production decreased, the inventory continued to accumulate, and the supply - demand relationship was not good. It is expected that the steel price will oscillate at a low level [22][23]. 3.14 Iron Ore - On Thursday, iron ore futures oscillated and declined. The iron ore price is affected by poor terminal demand and weak steel prices. The supply side is shrinking, and there is still a replenishment expectation in mid - to - late September. It is expected that iron ore will oscillate [24]. 3.15 Bean and Rapeseed Meal - On Thursday, the 01 contract of soybean meal rose 0.78%, and the 01 contract of rapeseed meal rose 0.98%. The market expects the NOPA's soybean crushing volume in August to reach a record high for the same period. The net sales of US soybeans for export are slow. It is expected that the domestic continuous meal will oscillate in the short term [25][26]. 3.16 Palm Oil - On Thursday, the 01 contract of palm oil fell 0.11%. High - frequency data shows that the production of Malaysian palm oil in early September decreased month - on - month, providing support for prices. It is expected that palm oil will oscillate and adjust in the short term [27][28]. 3.17 Metal Trading Data - The report provides the closing prices, price changes, price change percentages, trading volumes, and positions of various metal futures contracts on September 11, including SHFE copper, LME copper, SHFE aluminum, etc. [29] 3.18 Industrial Data - The report presents detailed industrial data for various metals such as copper, nickel, zinc, etc., including price changes, inventory changes, and basis changes from September 10 to 11 [30][31][32][33][34][35][36][37]

1. Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant content provided. 2. Core Views of the Report - Macro - globally, tariff policies have a relatively mild impact on economic growth expectations. In the US, the weak employment market has led to a rapid increase in expectations of preventive interest rate cuts by the Fed, and Trump's interference in Fed policies has shaken market confidence in the US dollar. In China, the central bank will implement moderately loose policies, the fiscal side will support traditional and emerging industries, and consumption subsidy policies will boost domestic demand [3][77]. - Fundamentals - globally, frequent mine interruptions have tightened the ore supply and affected the smelting end, raising the cost and thus the copper price. In the consumption end, traditional industries are entering the peak season, and the copper demand of emerging industries (except photovoltaics) remains rigid. Domestic inventory is at a low level, and the global inventory rebound is limited [3][77]. - Overall - the weak US employment market and non - significant inflation, along with the Fed's dovish stance, open the door for a September interest rate cut. Trump's interference challenges the Fed's independence, and the weak US dollar supports the copper price. The tightening of the ore end is intensifying and spreading to the smelting end. The domestic copper supply - demand will return to a tight balance, and social inventory may decline further. It is expected that the copper price will enter an upward - trending oscillation in September and may approach the first - half high if the interest rate cut is realized [3][77]. 3. Summary by Relevant Catalogs 3.1 2025 August Copper Market Review - Copper prices showed an upward - trending oscillation in August. LME copper rose from around $9,550 to over $9,900, and SHFE copper rose from around 78,000 yuan to around 80,000 yuan. The upward trend was driven by expectations of interest rate cuts, concerns about the Fed's independence, and global mine supply shortages. As of August 29, LME copper closed at $9,906/ton with a monthly decline of 3.1%, and SHFE copper closed at 79,410 yuan/ton with a monthly increase of 1.75%. The market was characterized by a stronger overseas and weaker domestic performance [8]. - In terms of consumption, the terminal consumption of refined copper in China maintained off - season characteristics in August. The construction of power grid investment projects did not increase significantly, and orders in the real estate, engineering, and rail transit sectors slowed down. The air - conditioning production entered the off - season, and the demand for copper in the photovoltaic and communication fields was weak. However, the demand for copper connectors in the new - energy vehicle industry was good. The social inventory remained at a low level of 12 - 150,000 tons, and the spot premium increased after the contract change. The processing fee of copper rods was stable. It is expected that the consumption of traditional industries will recover in September, and the premium of domestic copper will rise [11][12]. 3.2 Macroeconomic Analysis 3.2.1 US Employment Market Shows Weakness, and Expectations of Preventive Interest Rate Cuts within the Year Rise - In August, the US non - farm payrolls increased by only 22,000, far below expectations, and the unemployment rate rose to 4.3%. The number of full - time jobs decreased by 357,000, and the ADP employment increased by only 54,000. The recruitment growth in the goods production and service sectors slowed down, and the salary increase of private - sector employees reached a four - year low. The Fed's latest Beige Book showed that consumer spending was flat or decreased, and corporate investment willingness declined. The weak employment market has increased the expectations of preventive interest rate cuts, with some in the market expecting a 50 - BP cut in September. However, some hawkish officials oppose the cut, arguing that inflation is still above the 2% target [14][15]. 3.2.2 US Manufacturing Contracts, while Eurozone Manufacturing Recovers Significantly - The US ISM manufacturing PMI in August dropped to 48.7, remaining in the contraction range for six consecutive months. Although the new orders index expanded for the first time this year, the employment index decreased, and the price - paid index declined, indicating a potential slowdown in inflation. The overall situation shows that US manufacturing enterprises face many challenges and are reluctant to expand investment [17]. - The Eurozone manufacturing PMI in August rose to 50.5, ending a three - year contraction. Germany's manufacturing PMI rose significantly, and France's also showed a recovery trend. The strong PMI data and controlled inflation provide a basis for the ECB's policy - making. The ECB may pause interest rate cuts in the short term, but there is a possibility of resuming cuts by the end of the year if service - sector inflation further declines and the impact of tariff policies on the economy intensifies [18]. 3.2.3 The Central Bank Implements Moderately Loose Policies, and the Decline in Industrial Enterprise Profits Narrowed in August - The central bank proposed to implement moderately loose monetary policies in the second - quarter monetary policy report. It aims to maintain liquidity, match the growth of social financing and money supply with economic growth and price targets, and promote a reasonable recovery of prices. It will also improve the interest - rate regulation framework, lower the cost of bank liabilities, and support key areas such as innovation, consumption, and small enterprises [19]. - In July, the year - on - year decline in the profits of Chinese industrial enterprises above a designated size narrowed. The profits of high - tech manufacturing increased rapidly, driving the overall industrial profit growth. The fourth - quarter policy of "anti - involution + stable growth" is expected to boost the demand for industrial products and non - ferrous metals, providing upward momentum for the copper price [20]. 3.3 Fundamental Analysis 3.3.1 Global Ore Supply is Continuously Disrupted, and the Panama Copper Mine Enters the Environmental Assessment Audit Stage - As of the end of August, the spot TC of copper concentrate remained at an extremely low level of around - $41/ton. The global supply interference rate of copper concentrate is increasing, and the supply growth rate in 2025 is expected to drop to 1.1% - 1.4%. Many major mines have experienced interruptions and suspensions, such as the Panama copper mine's environmental audit, the suspension of Teck Resources' expansion project in Peru, and the temporary shutdown of several mines in Chile and Indonesia. The output loss of Kamoa this year is expected to exceed 100,000 tons. The overall situation shows that the tight supply of copper concentrate continues [24][25]. 3.3.2 Domestic Output May Decline from the High Level, and the Release of Overseas Refined Copper Capacity is Restricted - In August, China's electrolytic copper output was 1.172 million tons, a year - on - year increase of 15.6%. However, due to the "770 Document" that restricts the production of scrap - copper enterprises, domestic refined copper output in September is expected to decline by 4% - 5% month - on - month, a reduction of about 50,000 - 80,000 tons. - Overseas, Glencore's two smelters in the Philippines and Chile have been shut down, resulting in an expected output loss of 300,000 tons this year. The new overseas refined copper production capacity in 2025 is expected to be 620,000 tons, but the actual increase is estimated to be only about 150,000 tons [31][32]. 3.3.3 Refined Copper Imports Gradually Recover, and the Yangshan Copper Premium in US Dollars Declines - From January to July, China's cumulative imports of unwrought copper and copper products decreased by 2.6% year - on - year, while the imports of copper ore and concentrate increased by 8.1%. The decline in refined copper imports narrowed to 6.4%, and the import volume in July increased by 8.2% year - on - year. In August, the export window gradually closed, and some overseas goods flowed back to the LME Asian warehouse. The Yangshan copper premium dropped significantly, and the US copper premium almost disappeared. The inflow of US scrap copper into China has decreased significantly [54][55]. 3.3.4 Overseas Inventory Flows to North America, and Domestic Inventory Enters a Low - Level Range - Since August, domestic inventory has remained in a low - level range of 120,000 - 150,000 tons. By August 29, the global visible inventory (including Shanghai bonded area) rebounded to 599,000 tons. The total inventory of the three major exchanges (LME, COMEX, and SHFE) increased by 70,000 tons to 516,000 tons. The COMEX inventory stopped increasing, and the LME inventory gradually recovered. The domestic copper visible inventory increased to 162,000 tons. It is expected that the global visible inventory will increase slightly in September, and domestic inventory may decline further due to the peak - season demand [58][60]. 3.3.5 Traditional Industries Enter the Peak Season, and the Growth of Emerging Industries (Except Photovoltaics) Remains Stable - Power grid investment - the total investment in the power grid by the State Grid and China Southern Power Grid in 2025 is expected to reach 80 billion yuan, an increase of 22 billion yuan compared to 2024. The construction of "5 direct - current and 2 alternating - current" UHV lines will start this year. The copper demand for power grid investment is expected to grow at a rate of 3% [65]. - Photovoltaic and wind power - from January to July, China's photovoltaic installed capacity increased by 80.7% year - on - year, but the growth rate slowed down significantly in July and August. The government is taking measures to regulate the photovoltaic industry, and the second - half installed capacity may decline sharply. The wind - power installed capacity increased by 79.4% from January to July, but the full - year forecast has been lowered. The copper demand for the wind - and - solar industries is expected to decline by 7% - 8% [66][69]. - Real estate - from January to July, China's real estate development investment decreased by 12% year - on - year. The decline in housing prices in 70 large and medium - sized cities narrowed. Policy support is expected to stabilize the real estate market, but the copper demand for real estate is expected to decline slightly by 2% - 3% [70][71]. - Air - conditioning - from January to July, China's air - conditioning production increased by 1.5% year - on - year. In September, the domestic and export production schedules of air - conditioners decreased compared to last year. The air - conditioning market faces challenges of weakening domestic and external demand [72][73]. - New - energy vehicles - from January to July, China's new - energy vehicle production and sales increased by 39.2% and 38.5% respectively. The export increased by 75.2%. With policy support, the copper demand for new - energy vehicles is expected to grow by more than 25% [74]. 3.4 Market Outlook - Macro - factors and fundamentals are expected to drive the copper price upward. The weak US dollar and tight supply - demand fundamentals will support the copper price. In September, the copper price is expected to oscillate upwards and may approach the first - half high if the interest rate cut is realized [77].
