1. Report Core View - The black metal sector maintained a volatile trend today, with a slightly stronger morning and a slight decline in the afternoon. Spot trading volume improved compared to yesterday. Last week's data showed that steel mills continued to cut production, but hot metal output remained high. Steel demand recovered due to temperature drops after the holiday, leading to an increase in the apparent demand of the five major steel products. However, hot-rolled coil production was high, and overall inventory continued to accumulate, though at a slower pace, while rebar inventory started to decline. Since after May Day, the black metal sector has been falling, with steel and iron ore leading the decline. The rising price of thermal coal due to cooler weather limited the decline of coking coal. The sector is under pressure from news and fundamentals, but low steel price valuations, profit contractions, and increased environmental protection efforts provide some support. The Fourth Plenary Session this week and the "15th Five-Year Plan" content may also affect market fluctuations. Future attention should be paid to coal mine safety inspections, overseas tariffs, and domestic macro and industrial policies [9]. - The single - side trading of steel products is expected to maintain a bottom - oscillating trend. It is recommended to continue holding the 1 - 5 positive spread arbitrage and the long position on the hot - rolled coil to rebar spread. It is advisable to wait and see for options [10][11]. 2.

The supply side saw a slight decline in recent production, but the maintenance amplitude was still low, and the absolute value of production was at a high level. The demand side was under pressure from the steel mills' production - cut expectations, but the low valuation level provided some support, so it was expected to fluctuate at the bottom [6]. - For manganese silicon, on the 21st, the manganese ore spot price was stable, and the manganese silicon spot price showed mixed trends. The supply side's operating rate increased instead of decreasing, and the absolute value was at a high level. The demand side faced a downward risk due to the downward - trending macro data and high steel inventories. The price was suppressed by demand above, and supported by the valuation level and low manganese ore inventories, so it would also fluctuate at the bottom [6]. - The trading strategies include: for single - side trading, expect bottom - level fluctuations as demand expectations are under pressure, but the valuation level and cost side provide support; for arbitrage, stay on the sidelines; for options, sell out - of - the - money straddle option combinations [7].

Report Overview - Report Type: Agricultural Product Daily Report - Research Date: October 21, 2024 - Researcher: Liu Qiannan 1. Report Industry Investment Rating - Not provided in the given content 2. Report's Core View - The late - maturing Fuji apple is expected to have a low premium fruit rate due to small fruit diameters in some areas of Shaanxi and water - crack problems caused by continuous rainfall.

In Shandong, there was a small amount of high - quality apple procurement, and the supply and tradable volume were average.

The opening price and the cost of making futures warehouse receipts are high, so the futures price is expected to be slightly bullish and volatile in the short term [9]. - **Trading Strategies** - **Single - side**: The apple futures price is expected to be bullish and volatile in the short term due to the expected low premium fruit rate [10]. - **Arbitrage**: It is recommended to wait and see [10]. - **Options**: It is recommended to wait and see [10]. 3.3 Related Attachments - The report includes 10 related charts, such as the price chart of Qixia first - and second - grade paper - bag 80 apples, the price chart of Luochuan semi - commodity paper - bag 70 apples, and the chart of the total apple arrival volume in Chalong, Jiangmen, and Xiaqiao [14][24][30].

Group 1: Investment Rating - No investment rating information provided in the report Group 2: Core Viewpoints - The US corn report lowered the yield, but the production remains high. The US corn price has declined and may continue to adjust downward. The US corn is expected to trade in a narrow range. China has imposed a 15% tariff on US corn, with a total of 26% tariff within the quota, and a 22% tariff on US sorghum. The import profit of foreign corn is relatively high, with the Brazilian import price in December at 2,136 yuan. The northern port flat - price is stable, and the spot price in the Northeast corn - producing area is strong. The supply in North China has decreased, and the corn spot price has stabilized and rebounded. The wheat price in North China is strong, and the price difference between wheat and corn has widened. The domestic breeding demand is still weak, and the inventory of downstream feed enterprises is low. The new - season corn pressure has eased, and the Northeast corn spot price has started to stabilize and rebound, but there may be selling pressure in Jilin in late October [4][7]. - The number of trucks arriving at Shandong deep - processing plants has increased, and the corn spot price in Shandong is weak. The starch spot price in Shandong is around 2,760 yuan, and the Northeast starch spot price is stable. This week, the corn starch inventory has increased to 1.199 million tons, a monthly increase of 5.27% and a year - on - year increase of 46.9%. The starch price mainly depends on the corn price and downstream stocking. The by - product price is still strong, and the enterprise has made a profit. The 01 starch contract has rebounded with corn, but the North China corn price may still decline by the end of October, and the corn starch spot price will also fall later. It is expected that the 01 starch contract will trade in a narrow range following corn in the short term [8]. - The US corn is expected to rebound, and the yield may continue to be lowered, but with an expected increase in production, it will still trade in a narrow range. The quality of North China corn is poor, and the supply period will be extended. The corn spot price will bottom - out and fluctuate. The large - scale listing of Jilin corn at the end of October may bring short - term pressure relief, and the corn price may rebound in the short term. The price difference between Northeast and North China corn has narrowed. The market is currently trading on the weakening of selling pressure in the Northeast, and the port spot price has stabilized and rebounded. The 01 corn contract is bottom - out and fluctuating, and the corn spot price still has room to fall [9]. Group 3: Summary by Directory 1.
