1. Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant content provided. 2. Core Views of the Report Copper - **Logic**: Macroeconomic factors include China's export growth in July exceeding expectations, the impact of US tariff policies yet to be seen, and market expectations of a Fed rate cut within the year. Fundamentally, high - end copper supply is scarce, imported low - price supplies are limited, and demand is suppressed by high prices. As of August 7, copper inventory rose to 132,000 tons. The implementation of US copper tariffs and high inventory are pressuring prices [4]. - **Strategy**: Wait for the price to stabilize. The upper reference pressure level for the SHFE Copper 2509 contract is 80,000 yuan/ton, and the lower reference support level is 76,000 yuan/ton [4]. Electrolytic Aluminum - **Logic**: Macroeconomic factors are similar to copper. Fundamentally, production is slightly increasing, costs are stable, and profits are high. However, demand is weak due to the off - season, and social inventory has exceeded 550,000 tons. Aluminum prices may remain high and volatile, and attention should be paid to the "Golden September and Silver October" demand [6]. - **Strategy**: The upper reference pressure level for the SHFE Aluminum 2509 contract is 21,000 yuan/ton, and the lower reference support level is 20,200 yuan/ton [6]. Alumina - **Logic**: Macroeconomic factors are the same as above. Fundamentally, the weekly operating rate rose to 82.57% as of August 7, and the market is in an oversupply situation with high downstream inventory. Alumina may oscillate within a range [8]. - **Strategy**: The upper reference pressure level for the Alumina 2509 contract is 3,600 yuan/ton, and the lower reference support level is 3,000 yuan/ton [8]. 3.

Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant content provided. Core Viewpoints of the Report - The steel market is in a state of slight inventory accumulation during the off - season, but steel prices still have upward drivers. The overall inventory accumulation pressure of steel is not large. Considering the expected production cuts in Beijing - Tianjin - Hebei and surrounding provinces before the September military parade and the potential for terminal demand to form restocking support during the off - peak to peak season transition, steel prices are expected to have limited short - term decline space and medium - term upward drivers [3]. - The iron ore market has limited short - term supply pressure, and the inventory has no obvious accumulation pressure. It follows the changes in macro - policy expectations and market sentiment. With the transition from the off - season to the peak season, terminal demand remains resilient, and there are still opportunities for medium - term low - buying [4]. - The coking coal and coke market is firm. Coking coal mines in some areas have production cuts, and Mongolian coal customs clearance is at a high level.
