Investment Rating - The report maintains a "Positive" investment rating for the coal and fuel consumption industry [10]. Core Insights - Recent expectations of steel production restrictions have raised concerns about a potential decline in coking coal demand, which could suppress coking coal prices. However, historical data suggests that administrative production restrictions often lead to a rapid recovery in steel mill profits, reducing their willingness to pressure upstream material prices, resulting in a co-resonance price increase for both steel and coking coal. If steel production is reduced due to significant losses, both steel and coking coal prices tend to decline together [2][7]. - Looking ahead to 2025, steel mill profits remain favorable, and the motivation for voluntary production cuts is low. If administrative production cuts occur, there is potential for a co-resonance price increase in coking coal, leading to absolute returns in the equity sector [2][7]. Summary by Sections Recent Tracking - The coal index (Yangtze) fell by 0.81%, underperforming the CSI 300 index by 3.18 percentage points, ranking 30th out of 32 industries.

The price for main coking coal at Jingtang Port remained stable at 1610 CNY/ton [6][21]. - The supply of coking coal is tight due to production control measures and stricter safety regulations ahead of military parades, which may support prices in the short term [6][22].
