Report Summary 1. Industry Investment Rating No investment rating information is provided in the report. 2. Core View - In June, the global iron ore supply - demand balance is statically loose, and the price will fluctuate weakly [8]. 3. Summary by Directory 3.1 Market Review - In May, the spot and futures prices of iron ore fluctuated weakly. As of May 29, the futures price of the main contract decreased by 2 yuan/ton month - on - month [4]. 3.2 Supply - side - The shipments of the four major mines are expected to increase by about 3 million tons in June compared to the previous month. Specifically, VALE is expected to ship 25 million tons, up 300,000 tons; Rio Tinto 27.85 million tons, up 1.9 million tons; BHP 27.2 million tons, up about 1.85 million tons; FMG 17.75 million tons, down 1.05 million tons [6][26][29]. - Global non - mainstream shipments are relatively stable. In June, the estimated shipment is 44.85 million tons, a decrease of about 50,000 tons [6][33]. - The domestic iron ore output is expected to be 20.85 million tons in June, a decrease of 470,000 tons compared to the previous month. Overall, the global supply in June is expected to increase by about 2.48 million tons month - on - month [6][36][37]. 3.3 Demand - side - Domestically, according to the Steel Union's statistics, the estimated blast furnace hot metal output in June is 73.5 million tons, a decrease of 2.4 million tons compared to the previous month, which translates to a decrease of about 3.93 million tons in the demand for 61% grade iron ore [7][17][23]. - Overseas, except for China, the daily average pig iron output is generally stable. The estimated pig iron output in June will increase by about 225,000 tons compared to the previous month, which translates to an increase of about 370,000 tons in the demand for 61% grade iron ore. Globally, the demand for 61% grade iron ore in June will decrease by about 3.56 million tons [7][20][23]. 3.4 Inventory - At the end of May, the inventory of imported iron ore at 45 ports in China was 139 million tons, a decrease of 435 tons month - on - month, and it is expected to accumulate in June [38]. - Steel mills mostly replenish inventory as needed. The inventory fluctuates within a narrow range, and the inventory - to - consumption ratio continues to weaken [40].

1. Report Industry Investment Rating - No relevant content provided 2. Core Viewpoints of the Report - The capital market this month was dominated by the unexpected outcome of the China - US tariff negotiation and the judicial discussion on reciprocal tariffs. After the ebb of risk - aversion sentiment, the gold price fluctuated significantly, showing a pattern of "high - opening, low - closing, and then oscillating". The global economy faces downward pressure, with complex tariff prospects and obvious policy divergence between Europe and the US [2]. - In April, China's economic data was quite divided. Consumption and industrial data were acceptable, but investment growth slowed down. The real estate market did not stop declining, and the manufacturing PMI fell to 49.0%. The new export orders dropped sharply to 44.7%, reflecting the impact of US tariffs. Credit demand was insufficient, and the M1 year - on - year growth was only 1.5%. Although the policy side increased stimulus, the real estate sales and land market remained sluggish, and there was still much room for China's economic recovery [2]. - In the short term, gold was impacted by the ebb of risk - aversion, with a decrease in the proportion of non - commercial long positions in COMEX and a reduction in ETF funds. However, the long - term supporting factors remain unchanged: central bank gold purchases, the weakening of the US dollar credit, and the stagflation risk still constitute strategic allocation value. For silver, the supply - demand tight balance continues, but in the short term, its industrial and financial attributes have not yet resonated. The resilience of industrial demand supports the price, and it continues to fluctuate widely [2]. 3. Summary According to the Directory 3.1 Asset Price Deduction of the US Reciprocal Tariff Logic - The capital market was affected by factors such as the repeated tariff negotiations, global capital disturbances, and China's unexpected loose policies. Interest rates declined, the US dollar fluctuated, and the RMB appreciated. The China - US interest rate spread oscillated this month. A - shares soared and then oscillated, while the Dow Jones Industrial Average soared and then declined [8][9]. - The probability of recession in US data decreased, and US Treasury yields increased. Different countries' bond yields were affected by various factors such as debt expansion, inflation, and policy uncertainty. The core logic is that countries are generally affected by debt expansion and policy uncertainty, but the driving factors are different [11][13]. - Affected by factors such as over - supply and the China - US trade war, China's domestic commodity market generally declined this week, especially the black - chain commodities. Precious metals bottomed out and oscillated, and the short - term trading of non - ferrous metals was weak, but they were generally supported [17]. 3.2 US Inflation Stabilizes, and Central Banks of Many Countries Continue to Cut Interest Rates - In April 2025, the US CPI year - on - year increase was 2.3%, the lowest since February 2021, and the month - on - month increase was 0.2%, slightly lower than market expectations. The PPI year - on - year increase was 2.4%, the slowest in three consecutive months, and the month - on - month decrease was 0.5%, the largest monthly decline in five years [21][24]. - The US employment market showed a mild slowdown but still had resilience. In April, non - farm payrolls increased by 177,000, better than expected, and the unemployment rate remained at 4.2%. However, consumer confidence was at a low level, and the retail sales growth in April was weak [27][31]. - Inflation rates in different countries showed different trends. For example, France's inflation rate was stable at 0.8% in April, the lowest since 2021; the UK's CPI year - on - year increase slowed down to 2.6% [35]. - The manufacturing and service industries in the US, Europe, and Japan showed different trends. The manufacturing PMI in the US and the eurozone showed a differentiated trend, and the service industry PMI in the US and the eurozone declined, indicating a weakening of the economic recovery momentum [41][44]. - The balance sheets of the central banks of the US, Japan, and Europe showed a differentiated trend. The Fed continued to shrink its balance sheet, the Bank of Japan's balance sheet was passively reduced, and the European Central Bank maintained a high - level balance sheet [49]. - Central banks of different countries had different interest - rate policies. The US Fed maintained the interest rate unchanged in May, while the eurozone, the UK, Canada, etc. cut interest rates, and Brazil raised interest rates [50]. 3.3 China's Data Raises Many Concerns, Focus on Policy Effects - In April, China's industrial added - value growth rate remained high, with equipment manufacturing and high - tech manufacturing as the core driving forces. However, there were obvious regional and industrial differences, and some traditional industries had weak growth [54]. - In April, China's fixed - asset investment growth rate declined slightly, with a slight decline in general infrastructure investment and a decrease in manufacturing investment. Real estate investment continued to decline, with a significant decrease in new construction and completion areas, and a slight narrowing of the decline in sales area [58][61]. - In April, China's consumer market continued a mild recovery trend, with the total retail sales of consumer goods increasing by 5.1% year - on - year. However, the demand for durable consumer goods was significantly differentiated [63]. - In April, China's credit data was at a low level in recent years. New RMB loans decreased year - on - year, and corporate and household loans were weak. However, government special bonds supported the increase in social financing scale [66][75]. - In April, China's export data showed resilience, with a year - on - year increase of 9.3% in exports (in RMB). The "rush for re - export" effect was an important factor supporting the export performance. Import data showed a complex feature of "quantity - price differentiation" [86][92]. - In April, China's PMI declined. The manufacturing PMI fell to 49.0%, and large, medium, and small - sized enterprises were all in the contraction range. The non - manufacturing business activity index also declined slightly [95]. - In May 2025, China's monetary policy was unexpected. The central bank announced 3 major categories and 10 policies, including providing medium - and long - term liquidity through reserve requirement ratio cuts, lowering policy interest rates, and improving existing and creating new re - loan tools [99]. 3.4 The Impact of Tariff Negotiations and Prospects, Gold Price Bottoms out and Oscillates - Due to the uncertainty of the prospects of reciprocal tariffs, the gold price fluctuated significantly this month. The non - commercial long - position ratio of COMEX gold decreased, and the ETF fund holdings decreased. The US dollar depreciated, and the decline in the US dollar index weakened the suppression of the gold price [112][115][123]. - In the first quarter of 2025, the global physical gold ETF had a net inflow of 226 tons, and the total holdings increased to 3,445 tons. China's central bank has continuously increased its gold reserves for 6 months [124][125]. - In 2025, the silver market continued to be in a "tight balance". The supply - demand gap was expected to narrow by 21% compared with 2024. Industrial demand remained resilient, but consumer demand declined [126]. - In the short term, the shock of gold was mainly due to the demand for risk - aversion, and silver was driven by gold but was limited by the lack of resonance between its industrial and financial attributes. In the long term, central bank gold purchases, the weakening of the US dollar credit, and the stagflation risk still supported the gold price [128][129].

Zhong Hui Qi Huo· 2025-05-30 13:51
Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant content provided. Core Viewpoints of the Report - In 2025, the main factors influencing the crude oil market are OPEC+ production policies, US tariff policies, and global crude oil demand. OPEC+ is in an expansion cycle, and with the global energy transition, there is a growing supply surplus, leading to limited upward momentum for oil prices and potential for a lower price center. Geopolitical factors such as the Russia-Ukraine conflict, US-Iran nuclear talks, and US policies towards Venezuela increase price volatility but do not change the overall supply surplus situation. In June - July, which is the consumption peak season, oil prices may find some support and are expected to trade in a range with a gradually declining center. Recommended strategies include shorting on rallies, selling call options, or using bull spread options. The recommended trading ranges are WTI [55, 65] and SC [420, 500] [6][108]. Summary by Directory 1. Market Review and Outlook - **Market Outlook**: In 2025, the crude oil market is mainly affected by OPEC+ production policies, US tariff policies, and global demand. OPEC+ is expanding production, and combined with the global energy transition, there is a supply surplus. Geopolitical factors increase price volatility but do not change the supply - surplus trend. In June - July, oil prices may be supported by peak - season consumption and are expected to trade in a range with a declining center [6][108]. - **Macro - economic Situation**: On May 7, the People's Bank of China cut the reserve requirement ratio by 0.5 percentage points, injecting about 1 trillion in long - term liquidity. As of May, the probability of the Fed keeping interest rates unchanged in June is 97.8%, and the probability of a 25 - basis - point cut is 2.2%. By July, the probability of unchanged rates is 76.6%, with a 22.9% chance of a 25 - basis - point cut and a 0.5% chance of a 50 - basis - point cut. The IMF has lowered the global economic growth forecast for 2025 from 3.3% to 2.8%, and the expected growth rate for 2026 is 3% [6][27]. - **Supply and Demand, and Inventory**: - **Supply**: OPEC+ did not adjust production policies at the Wednesday meeting but proposed a mechanism for setting 2027 production benchmarks. There is a possibility of accelerated production increases in July. In April 2025, OPEC's production decreased by 62,000 barrels per day to 26.71 million barrels per day. The US crude oil production remained stable at 13.4 million barrels per day as of the week ending May 23 [7][43][47]. - **Demand**: The IEA's May report maintained the 2025 global crude oil demand growth rate at 740,000 barrels per day and raised the 2026 growth rate by 70,000 barrels per day to 760,000 barrels per day. In May 2025, EIA, OPEC, and IEA predicted global crude oil demand at 10.371 million, 10.5 million, and 10.39 million barrels per day respectively, with year - on - year increases of 970,000, 130,000, and 740,000 barrels per day [7][52]. - **Inventory**: As of the week ending May 23, US commercial crude inventories decreased by 2.8 million barrels to 440.36 million barrels, strategic reserves increased by 820,000 barrels to 401.31 million barrels, gasoline inventories decreased by 2.44 million barrels to 223.08 million barrels, and distillate fuel oil inventories decreased by 720,000 barrels to 103.41 million barrels. Chinese port inventories increased by 319,000 tons to 28.216 million tons, and Shandong refinery inventories increased by 23,000 tons to 2.499 million tons [7][71][75]. 2. Core Drivers - **OPEC+ Production Policies since 2017**: In 2017, OPEC+ implemented production cuts. Since October 2022, there have been multiple rounds of production cuts and extensions, with actual production decreasing by about 3 million barrels per day, mainly contributed by Saudi Arabia, Russia, Iraq, and Kuwait. The overall production cut implementation rate is 51.02% [10][12][14]. - **2025 OPEC+ Production Increase Path**: In 2025, OPEC+ has a production increase plan through quota increases and compensatory production cuts. It is expected that by the end of the year, the net increase in OPEC+ production will be about 1 million barrels per day [15][16][21]. 3. Price Spreads and Positions - **Cross - market Spreads**: The WTI monthly spread increased slightly. As of May 29, the M1 - M2 spread was $0.74 per barrel, and the M1 - M6 spread was $2.21 per barrel. The US refined product crack spreads declined, while the domestic refined product crack spreads rebounded [90][94][95]. - **Fund Positions**: No specific information on changes in WTI and Brent fund positions was provided. The SC warehouse receipt volume is low, and the total SC positions increased [102][104].

1. Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant content provided. 2. Core Views of the Report - For silicon manganese, the cost support is expected to weaken, and the industrial fundamentals have improved, but due to the overall decline in the prices of the black series, the market bearish sentiment remains. The medium - and short - term market may still be in the process of finding or establishing a bottom, with prices remaining weak. The main contract reference range is [5250, 5800] [3]. - For silicon iron, under the background of industrial production cuts, the supply - demand contradiction has eased. The current supply has dropped to the lowest level in the same period, while the demand faces the risk of seasonal decline, and the cost support is still insufficient. The market may continue to find a bottom, and prices are expected to remain weak. The main contract reference range is [5150, 5500] [45]. 3. Summary by Relevant Catalogs Silicon Manganese Supply and Demand Analysis - Supply: In May, production and operating rates declined significantly, with factories in both northern and southern regions undergoing maintenance. Some factories have resumed production slightly after maintenance. The daily output in Inner Mongolia is 13,400 tons, still at a relatively high level in the same period. Yunnan factories also have plans to resume production in June. The estimated total national silicon manganese production in May is about 740,000 tons [3]. - Demand: In May, hot metal production declined month - on - month and may have peaked, but it is still at a relatively high level in the same period, providing short - term rigid support for silicon manganese demand. In terms of steel procurement, the mainstream steel mills' procurement price of silicon manganese alloy in May was 5,850 yuan/ton, a decrease of 100 yuan/ton compared to April, and the procurement quantity was 11,600 tons, an increase of 200 tons compared to April. Most steel mills' tender prices decreased, with strong price - pressing sentiment. Recent news of crude steel production restrictions has disturbed the market [3]. Manganese Ore Overview - The news of South Africa's export restrictions briefly disturbed the market, but its impact has gradually dissipated. The manganese ore market remains weak, with low trading volume, and factories mainly replenish stocks on demand. In May, shipping and arrival volumes increased significantly, while the port clearance volume declined from a high level. South32 has resumed shipping, but the overall shipping volume is low. It is expected that port inventories will slowly recover at a low level [3]. Cost and Profit - The entire industry's loss has intensified, and the expectation of production cuts remains. However, the room for further production cuts in the southern region is limited, and attention should be paid to the operating conditions in low - cost regions. The second - round price cut of coke has been implemented, and there is still an expectation of further price cuts. Electricity prices in both northern and southern regions have decreased to varying degrees, and there is still an expectation of an electricity price cut in Ningxia in June [3]. Market Outlook - Overall, the cost support for silicon manganese is expected to weaken. Although the industrial fundamentals have improved, the market bearish sentiment remains due to the overall decline in the prices of the black series. The medium - and short - term market may still be in the process of finding or establishing a bottom, with prices remaining weak. The upward drive depends on "deep production cuts" in the industry or external environmental disturbances [3]. Silicon Iron Supply and Demand Analysis - Supply: In May, production and operating rates declined significantly. Since mid - April, more factories in production areas have undergone maintenance, and the operating rates in multiple production areas have dropped to the lowest level in the same period. The estimated total national production in May is 410,000 - 420,000 tons [44]. - Demand: In the short term, steel mills' profits still support the high - level hot metal production, and the demand for silicon iron remains resilient. The progress of steel procurement in May was slow, with most steel mills' tender prices decreasing to varying degrees, and strong price - pressing sentiment. A leading steel mill's procurement price of silicon iron alloy in May was 5,800 yuan/ton, a decrease of 150 yuan/ton compared to April, and the procurement quantity was 2,130 tons, an increase of 430 tons compared to April. Non - steel demand: The downstream magnesium metal market remains weak, with low trading volume, and cannot strongly support silicon iron. In terms of exports, the export volume of silicon iron increased month - on - month in April, but the cumulative export volume from January to April decreased significantly compared to the same period last year. Affected by the increase in Southeast Asian orders, the export volume in May is expected to increase slightly month - on - month but still be lower than the level of the same period last year [44]. Cost and Profit - The semi - coke market remains weakly stable. The price of lump coal at the raw material end continues to be weak, and cannot strongly support the semi - coke price. The maintenance season in May is coming to an end, and factories may gradually resume production. The price of small materials in Shaanxi decreased by 40 yuan/ton this month. There is still an expectation of an electricity price cut in Ningxia, and attention should be paid to the electricity price changes in each production area [44]. Market Outlook - Under the background of industrial production cuts, the supply - demand contradiction has eased. The current supply has dropped to the lowest level in the same period, while the demand faces the risk of seasonal decline, and the cost support is still insufficient. The market may continue to find a bottom, and prices are expected to remain weak [45].

1. Report Industry Investment Rating No information provided. 2. Core Viewpoints of the Report The current pig market is in a bearish pattern, with increasing inventory reduction pressure on the spot side. Short - term consumption support is insufficient to reverse the price trend. One should be vigilant about the risk of price decline after the Dragon Boat Festival. The recommended strategy is to mainly short on rallies for contracts in July, September, and November, and pay attention to the opportunity of the September - November reverse spread [5]. 3. Summary by Relevant Catalogs 3.1 Spot Performance - **Live Pig Spot Price**: This week, the national average live pig price increased by 0.06 yuan to 14.47 yuan/kg. Prices in Henan, Yunnan, Shanxi, and Sichuan increased, while that in Chongqing remained stable [3][12]. - **Sow Spot Price**: The average spot price of culled sows in sample breeding enterprises decreased by 0.12 yuan to 10.67 yuan/kg. The average spot price of 50 - kg binary sows remained flat at 1,641.43 yuan/head. The market was weak with low trading enthusiasm [3][14]. - **Piglet Spot Price**: The piglet market showed a hidden decline. The average出栏 price of 7 - kg piglets decreased by 6.91 yuan to 503.57 yuan/head, while that of 15 - kg piglets increased by 12.86 yuan to 572.15 yuan/head [3][16]. 3.2 Supply - Demand Performance - **Short - term Supply**: In the short term, the enthusiasm for secondary fattening has decreased, and some areas have shifted from active inventory replenishment to inventory reduction. The increase in the theoretical market supply of commercial pigs from April to June 2025 will slow down. The average slaughter weight of live pigs remained stable at 124.13 kg. The planned slaughter volume of large - scale farms in May and June is expected to increase [4][23]. - **Medium - term Supply**: From January to April, the number of newly born piglets increased.
