Investment Rating - The report maintains a "Positive" investment rating for the coal industry [9] Core Insights - The resilience of demand must be paired with the rigidity of supply to support a stable coal price cycle. Developed countries have already entered a downward supply channel, while countries with current supply growth may face similar risks in the future. The combination of supply rigidity and demand resilience is expected to lead to a stable global coal supply-demand pattern [2][7] Summary by Sections Introduction - The report emphasizes that the stability of coal prices requires a logical closure formed by supply rigidity. It explores the long-term perspectives on demand, supply, and costs, aiming to clarify the medium to long-term price center of coal [5][17] Experience from Developed Countries - Coal supply changes are primarily influenced by resource endowment and demand variations. Countries with shrinking coal supply account for about 19% of global supply, including the US, Europe, Japan, South Korea, Australia, and South Africa. Historical trends indicate that long-term coal supply contraction is typically due to resource depletion, long transportation distances, and stringent environmental policies [5][35] Outlook for Growing Countries - China faces supply growth constraints due to resource depletion in Shanxi and central eastern regions. Indonesia and Russia are experiencing rising costs. Countries with ongoing coal supply growth account for approximately 77% of global supply, with China alone accounting for 50%. Future projections indicate potential supply shortages in China and declining production in Indonesia due to increased export costs [6][7] Investment Recommendations - The report suggests that the combination of supply rigidity and demand resilience will prolong the duration of coal price flattening. It recommends several companies for investment based on their performance and market conditions, including Yanzhou Coal Mining Company, Shanxi Coking Coal Group, and China Shenhua Energy [7][9]

Investment Rating - The report maintains an "Overweight" rating for the coal mining industry [6]. Core Views - The report suggests that coal prices are likely to end the year at their highest point due to increased regulatory checks on production, resilient demand, and potential capacity increases disrupting market expectations [4][11]. Summary by Sections Market Review - The CITIC Coal Index was at 3,523.37 points, down 0.77%, underperforming the CSI 300 Index by 3.14 percentage points, ranking 27th among CITIC sectors [3][83].

Investment Rating - The industry investment rating is "Positive" and maintained [9]. Core Viewpoints - The report highlights that the domestic raw coal production has turned negative year-on-year, with a significant increase in thermal power generation during the peak season. The report anticipates that the demand for thermal coal will remain resilient due to high temperatures and the upcoming "golden September and silver October" non-electric peak season, which may support continued price increases for thermal coal. The report also emphasizes the defensive allocation value of coal stocks due to their high dividend yield and low allocation in the current coal sector [2][12][25]. Supply Summary - Domestic raw coal production in July was 38.099 million tons, down 3.8% year-on-year and down 9.5% month-on-month. From January to July, the total production was 2.779 billion tons, up 3.8% year-on-year [6][15]. - The import of coal and lignite in July was 35.61 million tons, down 22.94% year-on-year but up 7.8% month-on-month. The cumulative import from January to July was 25.731 million tons, down 13.0% year-on-year [12][17]. Demand Summary - In July, thermal power generation increased by 4.3% year-on-year and 21.9% month-on-month, with total domestic power generation reaching 926.7 billion kWh, up 3.1% year-on-year and 16.4% month-on-month. The report notes that the demand for thermal coal is supported by high electricity consumption due to summer heat [25][26]. - The report indicates that the demand for non-electric coal, particularly in cement production, has decreased, with July cement output at 14.557 million tons, down 5.6% year-on-year [30][34]. Future Outlook - For thermal coal, the report expects continued upward price momentum due to sustained electricity demand driven by high temperatures and the upcoming non-electric peak season. Key factors to monitor include production checks and the sustainability of terminal demand [2][12]. - For coking coal, the report notes that supply is tight due to production controls and safety regulations, with short-term price stability expected. The report suggests that there may be opportunities for strategic allocation in coking coal following policy catalysts and the release of negative mid-term reports [2][12][35].
