Group 1: Investment Rating - No investment rating information is provided in the report. Group 2: Core Views - The tin market is currently under the double pressure of "falsification of supply anxiety" and "negative demand feedback." The previous core logic supporting the tin price to reach 348,000 yuan/ton was the "expectation of raw material shortage," but this logic is weakening. The supply bottleneck is being broken by the recovery of trade flows, while the demand side has a strong rejection reaction due to high prices. The accumulation of social inventory at the end of the peak consumption season falsifies the "shortage" proposition. The decline in photovoltaic module production and weak consumer electronics orders make the downstream demand extremely fragile. As a result, the high - valuation of tin prices has lost its fundamental anchor, and the market logic is switching from "strong expectation" to "weak reality," with a downward trend being the path of least resistance [2]. - In the short - term, with the end of the Christmas holiday and the approaching year - end closing, the willingness of long - position funds to withdraw is stronger than to attack. The spot market is in a "high - price but no - trading" situation. The continuous closure of the import window fails to prevent inventory accumulation, indicating weak domestic demand. Without sudden supply disruptions, the market will be dominated by short - sellers [4]. - Looking forward to Q1 2026, the long - term structural contradiction in the tin market will shift from "mineral shortage" to "mismatch between smelting capacity expansion and demand interruption." Although the current tin ore processing fee in Yunnan is at a historical low, it reflects a stock game. With the expected resumption of production in Myanmar and the supplement of imported ore sources, the supply of refined tin is expected to increase slightly year - on - year in Q1 2026. However, the demand side is weak. If there is no substantial restocking in consumer electronics in Q1 2026, the tin price may face a deep valuation adjustment and return to the cost line [7]. Group 3: Strategy Recommendations Trading - type Strategy Recommendations - **Futures Unilateral**: Short at high prices. The logic is the alleviation of supply anxiety, inventory accumulation, and year - end capital withdrawal. It is recommended to place short orders in the range of 338,000 - 342,000 yuan, with a target price of 325,000 yuan and a stop - loss above the previous high of 348,000 yuan [11]. - **Option Strategy**: Buy put options or use bear spreads. The logic is that volatility may increase as prices fall, and buying out - of - the - money put options can bet on a rapid price correction [12]. - **Arbitrage Strategy**: Short near - term contracts and long far - term contracts (Contango structure trading). The logic is that domestic inventory is continuously accumulating and the spot is at a discount, so the monthly spread structure may deepen in the direction of Contango [13]. Industrial Customer Operation Recommendations - **Inventory Management**: For enterprises with high finished - product inventory worried about price drops, sell 75% of the main Shanghai tin futures contracts at around 350,000 yuan and sell 25% of SN2602C call options when the volatility is appropriate [14]. - **Raw Material Management**: For enterprises with low raw - material inventory worried about price increases, buy 50% of the main Shanghai tin futures contracts at around 330,000 yuan and sell 25% of SN2602P put options when the volatility is appropriate [14]. Group 4: This Week's Important Information and Next Week's Events This Week's Important Information - **Likely Positive Drivers**: Not provided in the report. - **Negative Information**: Inventory has accumulated, SMM's three - place social inventory has increased to 9,378 tons (weekly increase of 186 tons), and SHFE warehouse receipts have increased to 7,844 tons; demand has declined, with a 12.5% month - on - month decrease in global photovoltaic cell production in December and weak electronic consumption; supply has eased, with a surge in Indonesia's refined tin exports in November and a significant month - on - month increase in China's tin ore imports in November; spot trading is cold, with strong price - aversion sentiment and a "high - price but no - trading" situation [19]. - **Spot Transaction Information**: The price of Shanghai Non - ferrous tin ingots is 334,750 yuan/ton, down 2,350 yuan (- 0.7%); the 1 tin premium is 500 yuan/ton, up 300 yuan (150%); the price of 40% tin concentrate is 322,750 yuan/ton, down 2,350 yuan (- 0.72%); the price of 60% tin concentrate is 326,750 yuan/ton, down 2,350 yuan (- 0.71%); the price of 60A solder bar is 214,250 yuan/ton, down 1,000 yuan (- 0.46%); the price of 63A solder bar is 223,750 yuan/ton, down 1,500 yuan (- 0.67%); the price of lead - free solder is 340,750 yuan/ton, down 2,500 yuan (- 0.73%) [17]. Next Week's Important Events - **Domestic**: On December 31st, the official manufacturing PMI will be released to verify the changes in the prosperity of the electronics/photovoltaic industry chain. Throughout the week, monitor the change in spot inventory, as whether inventory stops accumulating is the key to a price stop - fall [17]. - **International**: Throughout the week, pay attention to the latest news on the resumption of production in Myanmar's Wa State (the biggest variable on the supply side) and the change in the proportion of LME inventory cancellation warrants (to check for the outflow of overseas hidden inventory) [20]. Group 5: Disk Interpretation Price, Volume, and Capital Interpretation - **Macro Sentiment**: The US has postponed the additional tariffs on Chinese chips for 18 months, and NVIDIA plans to deliver the H200 chip, easing concerns about the technology war [19]. - **Processing Fee at a Low Level**: The processing fee for 40% tin concentrate in Yunnan remains at 12,000 yuan/ton, and that for 60% ore in other regions remains at 8,000 yuan/ton, at a historical low [19]. - **LME Inventory**: LME inventory is 4,895 tons, still at a relatively low level, with only 160 tons in American inventory [19]. Domestic Market - **Unilateral Trend and Capital Movement**: This week, the weighted tin price contract closed at 338,500 yuan per ton. Currently, profitable positions are mainly long in net positions [22]. - **Basis and Monthly Spread Structure**: This week, the domestic term structure is in a C structure [24]. LME Market - **Monthly Spread Structure**: The LME tin term structure remains in a B structure this week [28]. Internal - External Price Difference Tracking - This week, the internal - external price difference was relatively stable, with narrow fluctuations. The tin import loss is 14,018.67 yuan/ton, down 515.1 yuan (3.81%); the 40% tin ore processing fee is 12,200 yuan/ton, unchanged; the 60% tin ore processing fee is 10,050 yuan/ton, unchanged [30]. Group 6: Valuation and Profit Analysis - The long - term low processing fees have put pressure on smelter profits and suppressed production willingness [32]. Group 7: Supply - Demand and Inventory Projection Supply Side and Projection - Although no specific supply projection data is provided, it is mentioned that with the expected resumption of production in Myanmar and the supplement of imported ore sources, the supply of refined tin is expected to increase slightly year - on - year in Q1 2026 [7]. Demand Side and Projection - The demand side is weak. The decline in photovoltaic module production and the continuous weakness of consumer electronics orders make the downstream demand extremely fragile. If there is no substantial restocking in consumer electronics in Q1 2026, the tin price may face a deep valuation adjustment [2][7].

1. Report Industry Investment Ratings No industry investment ratings are provided in the report. 2. Core Views of the Report Financial Futures - **Macro**: Overseas, the US GDP in Q3 grew by 4.3% year - on - year, and the employment market recovered, weakening the rate - cut expectation. Domestically, the government will continue to implement proactive fiscal and moderately loose monetary policies, with expanding domestic demand as the primary task next year. However, the domestic demand in November was weak, still needing policy support [2]. - **Renminbi Exchange Rate**: Although there is an expectation that the RMB will "break 7 and enter 6" in 2026, there are three potential risks. The RMB's real purchasing power is underestimated, and the narrowing of the Sino - US interest rate spread is the core trigger for its appreciation. The attractiveness of the capital market has become a key variable for the exchange - rate trend [4]. - **Stock Index**: In the short term, it is expected to fluctuate strongly. Although the market sentiment has improved, there is still pressure on the index due to the approaching year - end and tightened capital [7]. - **Treasury Bond**: Maintain a non - pessimistic view on the medium - term bond market.
