Report Overview - Report Name: Nanhua Futures Copper Risk Management Daily Report - Date: July 28, 2025 - Research Team: Nanhua Non - ferrous Metals Research Team [1] Investment Rating - No investment rating for the copper industry is provided in the report. Core Views - Copper prices recently rose and then fell. The rise was due to the positive impact of domestic anti - involution on commodities and increased copper demand expectations from Yajiang Hydropower Station construction. However, the short - term impact of both factors on copper should be limited. The supply side has no significant over - capacity to eliminate, and anti - involution in the downstream is more negative than positive for demand. The long construction cycle of the hydropower station means low initial copper demand. The increase in copper prices was likely a passive rise due to capital overflow from other sectors. In the short term, as the anti - involution hype fades, copper prices may decline slightly. The upcoming week is a macro super - week with significant events that could cause large price fluctuations in copper during the last week of July [3]. Summary by Directory Copper Price and Volatility - The latest copper price is 79,250 yuan/ton, with a monthly price range forecast of 73,000 - 80,000 yuan/ton. The current volatility is 11.64%, and the historical percentile of the current volatility is 22.6% [2] Copper Risk Management Suggestions - **Inventory Management**: For high finished - product inventory and fear of price drops, with a long spot position, it is recommended to sell 75% of the Shanghai Copper Main Futures Contract near 82,000 yuan/ton and sell 25% of the CU2509C82000 call option when volatility is relatively stable [2] - **Raw Material Management**: For low raw - material inventory and fear of price increases, with a short spot position, it is recommended to buy 75% of the Shanghai Copper Main Futures Contract near 75,000 yuan/ton [2] Factors Affecting Copper Prices - **Likely Positive Factors**: Sino - US tariff policy relaxation, lower LME inventory levels, the US dollar index hovering at a low level, and anti - involution benefiting the non - ferrous metals sector [4][7] - **Likely Negative Factors**: Tariff policy reversals, reduced global demand due to tariff policies, and the Fed maintaining high interest rates [7] Copper Futures Market Data | Contract | Unit | Latest Price | Daily Change | Daily Change Rate | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Shanghai Copper Main | yuan/ton | 79,250 | 0 | 0% | | Shanghai Copper Continuous 1 | yuan/ton | 79,250 | - 640 | - 0.8% | | Shanghai Copper Continuous 3 | yuan/ton | 79,240 | 0 | 0% | | LME Copper 3M | US dollars/ton | 9,796 | - 58.5 | - 0.59% | | Shanghai - London Ratio | ratio | 8.06 | - 0.06 | - 0.74% | [6][8] Copper Spot Market Data | Spot Type | Unit | Latest Price | Daily Change | Daily Change Rate | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Shanghai Non - ferrous 1 Copper | yuan/ton | 79,450 | - 345 | - 0.43% | | Shanghai Wumaotrade | yuan/ton | 79,535 | - 220 | - 0.28% | | Guangdong Southern Reserve | yuan/ton | 79,380 | - 270 | - 0.34% | | Yangtze Non - ferrous | yuan/ton | 79,640 | - 280 | - 0.35% | | Shanghai Non - ferrous Premium/Discount | yuan/ton | 125 | - 20 | - 13.79% | | Shanghai Wumaotrade Premium/Discount | yuan/ton | 115 | 10 | 9.52% | | Guangdong Southern Reserve Premium/Discount | yuan/ton | 115 | 15 | 15% | | Yangtze Non - ferrous Premium/Discount | yuan/ton | 125 | 0 | 0% | [10] Copper Scrap - Refined Spread Data | Spread Type | Unit | Latest Price | Daily Change | Daily Change Rate | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Current Scrap - Refined Spread (Tax - included) | yuan/ton | 840.74 | - 463.62 | - 35.54% | | Reasonable Scrap - Refined Spread (Tax - included) | yuan/ton | 1,492.45 | - 5.7 | - 0.38% | | Price Advantage (Tax - included) | yuan/ton | - 651.71 | - 457.92 | 236.3% | | Current Scrap - Refined Spread (Tax - excluded) | yuan/ton | 5,545 | - 470 | - 7.81% | | Reasonable Scrap - Refined Spread (Tax - excluded) | yuan/ton | 6,199.6 | - 39.56 | - 0.63% | | Price Advantage (Tax - excluded) | yuan/ton | - 654.6 | - 430.44 | 192.02% | [12] Copper Warehouse Receipt and Inventory Data - **SHFE Copper Warehouse Receipts**: Total Shanghai Copper warehouse receipts are 16,133 tons, a decrease of 0.31%.

Report Overview - Report Name: Nanhua Futures Tin Risk Management Daily Report - Date: July 28, 2025 - Research Team: Nanhua Non - Ferrous Metals Research Team [1] Investment Rating - There is no report industry investment rating provided in the content. Core View - The recent rise in tin prices was mainly due to the boost to the non - ferrous metals sector from anti - involution, with little change in its own fundamentals. Considering the obvious oligopoly situation in the upstream of tin and the suppression of the downstream, the rise is understandable. In the short term, as the anti - involution heat fades, tin prices may decline slightly. Investors should also pay attention to the impact of various macro events in the last week of July on tin prices [3] Content Summary by Category Price Volatility and Forecast - The latest closing price of tin is 271,630 yuan/ton, with a monthly price range forecast of 245,000 - 263,000 yuan/ton. The current volatility is 14.36%, and the historical percentile of the current volatility is 26.1% [2] Risk Management Recommendations Inventory Management - For those with high finished - product inventory worried about price drops, the strategy is to sell 75% of the Shanghai Tin main futures contract at around 275,000 yuan/ton and sell 25% of the SN2509C275000 call option when the volatility is appropriate [2] Raw Material Management - For those with low raw - material inventory worried about price increases, the strategy is to buy 50% of the Shanghai Tin main futures contract at around 230,000 yuan/ton and sell 25% of the SN2509P245000 put option when the volatility is appropriate [2] Factors Affecting Prices Bullish Factors - Sino - US tariff policy relaxation; the semiconductor sector is still in an expansion cycle; Myanmar's resumption of production is lower than expected; anti - involution benefits the entire non - ferrous metals sector [4] Bearish Factors - Tariff policy fluctuations; Myanmar's tin ore starts to flow into China; the semiconductor sector's expansion speed slows down and gradually moves from the expansion cycle to the contraction cycle [5] Futures and Spot Data Futures Data (Daily) - The latest price of the Shanghai Tin main contract is 271,630 yuan/ton (0 change, 0% change), the Shanghai Tin continuous - one is 272,120 yuan/ton (0 change, 0% change), the Shanghai Tin continuous - three is 271,890 yuan/ton (0 change, 0% change), the LME Tin 3M is 34,140 US dollars/ton (- 520, - 1.5% change), and the Shanghai - London ratio is 7.86 (0.12, 1.55% change) [6] Spot Data (Weekly) - The latest price of Shanghai Non - Ferrous tin ingots is 271,100 yuan/ton (5,600 change, 2.11% change), 1 tin premium is 700 yuan/ton (200 change, 40% change), 40% tin concentrate is 259,100 yuan/ton (5,600 change, 2.21% change), 60% tin concentrate is 263,100 yuan/ton (5,600 change, 2.17% change), etc. [11] Import and Processing Data - The latest tin import profit and loss is - 21,486.26 yuan/ton (- 307.4 change, 1.45% change). The 40% tin ore processing fee is 12,200 yuan/ton (0 change, 0% change), and the 60% tin ore processing fee is 10,550 yuan/ton (0 change, 0% change) [15] Inventory Data Daily Inventory - The total warehouse receipt quantity of tin on the Shanghai Futures Exchange is 7,125 tons (262 change, 3.82% change), including 4,636 tons in Guangdong (102 change, 2.25% change) and 1,608 tons in Shanghai (160 change, 11.05% change).

Report Summary 1. Report Industry Investment Rating No information provided in the content. 2. Core Views - The current crude oil market is in a narrow - range shock adjustment phase, with the center of fluctuation moving down. The support comes from the demand side, but the incremental demand space is limited due to the seasonal decline. The market's operating logic remains unchanged, still in the adjustment stage after the sharp fluctuations caused by geopolitical events. The market is supported by peak - season demand, and recent trade agreements between the US and multiple countries and economies have boosted the macro - sentiment [4]. - The crude oil market lacks clear guidance from news recently. Next week is a macro super - week with multiple important meetings, including China - US economic and trade negotiations from July 27th to 30th, the Politburo meeting at the end of July, the Fed's interest - rate meeting at 3:00 am on July 31st. Also, the US tariff deadline is on August 1st, and the OPEC + 8 - country meeting will be held on August 3rd. Attention should be paid to the possibility of positive news from the China - US economic and trade negotiations and the reaction of the crude oil market after OPEC +'s production increase in September [4]. 3. Summary by Relevant Catalogs Market Trends - The Trump administration approved Chevron to resume oil extraction in Venezuela. The details of the agreement are unclear, and the move has received different reactions. Chevron will comply with relevant laws and regulations [4]. - South Korea and Japan plan to strengthen cooperation on oil supply security due to the Israel - Iran conflict, discussing issues such as oil reserve policies [4]. - Syria issued a tender for 500,000 barrels of heavy crude oil on July 24th. The US has gradually lifted sanctions on Syria, but it's unclear about the source of this oil sale, whether it marks Syria's return to the international oil market, and potential buyers [6]. - There are many differences between the US and Japan on the details of the tariff agreement. The 15% "reciprocal" tariff may take effect on August 1st, and the 550 - billion - dollar investment commitment from Japan to the US has many uncertainties [6]. EIA Weekly Inventory - For the week ending July 18th in the US, EIA crude oil inventory decreased by 3.169 million barrels (expected - 1.565 million barrels, previous value - 3.859 million barrels); strategic petroleum reserve inventory decreased by 200,000 barrels (previous value - 300,000 barrels); Cushing crude oil inventory increased by 455,000 barrels (previous value + 213,000 barrels); gasoline inventory decreased by 1.738 million barrels (expected - 908,000 barrels, previous value + 3.399 million barrels); refined oil inventory increased by 2.931 million barrels (expected - 1.135 million barrels, previous value + 4.173 million barrels) [7]. - US crude oil production decreased by 102,000 barrels to 13.273 million barrels per day. Commercial crude oil imports were 5.976 million barrels per day, a decrease of 403,000 barrels per day compared to the previous week. Crude oil exports increased by 337,000 barrels per day to 3.855 million barrels per day. The refinery utilization rate was 95.5% (expected 93.4%, previous value 93.9%) [7].

Report's Investment Rating for the Industry - No investment rating for the industry is provided in the report. Core Views of the Report - The recent increase in ferroalloys is due to strong policy expectations and support from coal - based prices. Last Friday, influenced by the news of an anti - involution meeting among ferroalloy enterprises, both ferroalloys hit the daily limit. There is a high risk of chasing high prices in the short term, especially after the sharp decline of coking coal futures on Friday night, which may lead to a correction in ferroalloys. Currently, the supply - demand contradiction of ferroalloys is relatively small, with low operating rates. Silicon iron has high inventory but is gradually reducing it, while silicon manganese's inventory reduction is accelerating. The market is driven by sentiment, but the fundamental resonance is weak. Attention should be paid to the implementation of policy expectations and risk control [5]. Summary by Relevant Catalogs Spot Market - Silicon iron: In the main production areas, the price of 72 - grade silicon iron in Inner Mongolia is 5600 yuan/ton (+250), and in Ningxia is 5600 yuan/ton (+270). In trading areas, it is 5900 yuan/ton (+400) in Hebei and Tianjin. Silicon manganese: In the northern production area (Inner Mongolia), the market price of 6517 - grade silicon manganese is 5700 yuan/ton (+70), in the southern production area (Guangxi) is 5720 yuan/ton (+50), and in the trading area (Jiangsu) is 6090 yuan/ton (+100) [2]. Cost and Profit - For silicon iron, the profit in Inner Mongolia's production area is +79 yuan/ton (+250), and in Ningxia's production area is 226 yuan/ton (+270). For silicon manganese, the profit in the northern region is - 66.74 yuan/ton (-0.1), and in the southern region is - 430.33 yuan/ton (-5.13). Manganese ore port inventory is increasing, and the shipment of Australian ore is expected to resume [2]. Supply - Silicon iron: The weekly operating rate of production enterprises is 33.33%, a week - on - week increase of 0.88%, and the weekly output is 10.23 tons, a week - on - week increase of 2.3%. Silicon manganese: The weekly operating rate of production enterprises is 41.58%, a week - on - week increase of 1.05%, and the weekly output is 18.65 tons, a week - on - week increase of 2.02%. Although the profit of ferroalloy plants has recovered, facing weak downstream demand, the operating rates remain low [3]. Demand - Steel mills have good profits, and high pig iron production supports the demand for silicon iron and silicon manganese. Pig iron production has rebounded above the seasonal level this week. On the other hand, the slow inventory reduction of five major steel products limits the further production space of steel mills, and the growth space of silicon iron and silicon manganese is limited. In the long term, the real - estate market is sluggish, and the overall black sector is declining, causing doubts about the growth of steel terminal demand, and the demand for silicon manganese is relatively weak. This week, the demand for silicon iron in five major steel products is 2.01 tons, a week - on - week increase of 0.5%; the demand for silicon manganese in five major steel products is 12.37 tons, a week - on - week increase of 0.24% [3]. Inventory - Silicon iron: This week, the enterprise inventory is 6.21 tons, a week - on - week decrease of 2.2%, the warehouse receipt inventory is 11.06 tons, a week - on - week increase of 0.73%, and the total inventory is 17.28 tons, a week - on - week decrease of 0.29%. Silicon manganese: The enterprise inventory is 20.5 tons, a week - on - week decrease of 5.22%, the warehouse receipt is 38.83 tons, a week - on - week decrease of 2.85%, and the total inventory is 59.33 tons, a week - on - week decrease of 3.69%. Silicon iron currently has high inventory pressure, while the inventory pressure of silicon manganese is weakening [3].

1. Report Industry Investment Rating - No relevant content provided 2. Core View of the Report - The market theme remained clear this week, but the strength of the market exceeded expectations. Some varieties showed signs of taking over the upward trend on Friday. The exchange resolved the position - holding risk of the coking coal 09 contract through position limits and promoted position transfer. The overall market's bullish trend is unlikely to reverse completely due to position limits, but future market movements may not be as intense, and differentiation will be more obvious. The black sector is generally bullish [3][5]. 3. Summary by Related Catalogs 3.1 Week - long Market Data Overview - The market continued the "anti - involution" theme this week. Under the notice of controlled coal over - production, coking coal led the market. The coking coal 09 contract had 4 out of 5 K - lines hitting the daily limit this week. After a sudden news on July 22, it hit the daily limit, with partial short - covering and fluctuations on the 23rd. It added 50,000 lots on the 24th and 25th, maintaining its strength. Many related varieties such as glass, soda ash, PVC, and ferrosilicon also strengthened significantly. However, on Friday night after the Dalian Commodity Exchange limited the position of the coking coal 09 contract to 500 lots, coking coal, glass and other varieties corrected sharply, and the coking coal 09 contract reduced its position by 100,000 lots. Since July 22, the coking coal 09 contract only rose by 92 points (less than 10%) by Friday night's close. The position limit successfully released the potential risk of the coking coal 09 contract's reluctance to transfer positions, but it is unlikely to reverse the trend of the leading variety in the anti - involution market. Similar cases in the past show that position limits are to prevent extreme market risks and do not change the variety's trend, but large fluctuations require risk control [4]. 3.2 Variety Price Movement Structure - From last week's variety price movement structure, low - priced varieties have shown a comprehensive upward trend, and some varieties have signs of continuing the bullish market. This is a systematic market that will not end abruptly due to the position limit on coking coal. Funds may look for new varieties to take advantage of the good market profit - making effect [5]. 3.3 Capital Flow in Different Sectors - The total capital flow was 14.391 billion. Among them, precious metals had a capital flow of 522 million, non - ferrous metals 5.558 billion, black metals 85 million, energy 72 million, chemicals 517 million, feed and breeding - 239 million, oils and fats - 1.769 billion, and soft commodities 164 million [9]. 3.4 Weekly Data of Different Commodity Categories - **Black and Non - ferrous Metals**: Data on price percentile, inventory percentile, valuation percentile, position percentile, position difference percentile, and annualized basis for various black and non - ferrous metal varieties such as iron ore, rebar, hot - rolled coil, coking coal, etc. were provided [9]. - **Energy and Chemicals**: Similar data for energy and chemical varieties like fuel oil, low - sulfur oil, asphalt, etc. were presented [11]. - **Agricultural Products**: Data for agricultural products including soybean meal, rapeseed meal, soybean oil, etc. were given [12].

Report Industry Investment Rating - Not provided 2. Report's Core View - Today's stock index showed mixed performance, with large - cap indices falling and small - and medium - cap indices rising slightly. The trading volume of the two markets shrank slightly. Some previously leading sectors adjusted significantly. From futures indicators, the basis of each contract declined, and trading volume and open interest decreased, indicating a cooling market sentiment. The index may undergo a phased adjustment, but the positive trend logic remains unchanged. If there are unexpected policies released after the Politburo meeting next week, it will drive the index up [6] 3. Summary by Relevant Catalogs Market Review - Today, stock indices showed mixed performance, with large - cap indices closing down and small - and medium - cap indices closing up. The trading volume of the two markets decreased by 57.369 billion yuan. In the futures market, IM rose on shrinking volume, while other varieties fell on shrinking volume [4] Important Information - The National Development and Reform Commission and the State Administration for Market Regulation solicited public opinions on the draft amendment to the Price Law. The draft improves the criteria for identifying predatory pricing, regulates market price order, and addresses "involution - style" competition, as well as the criteria for identifying unfair price behaviors such as price collusion, price gouging, and price discrimination [5] Strategy Recommendation - Hold long positions and wait and see [7] Futures Market Observation | | IF | IH | IC | IM | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Main contract intraday change (%) | - 0.50 | - 0.60 | - 0.03 | 0.03 | | Trading volume (10,000 lots) | 9.2446 | 4.7227 | 7.6933 | 15.9413 | | Trading volume MoM (10,000 lots) | - 2.1687 | - 0.6615 | - 1.8535 | - 4.5693 | | Open interest (10,000 lots) | 26.0176 | 9.744 | 22.5556 | 32.7023 | | Open interest MoM (10,000 lots) | - 1.1192 | - 0.3451 | - 0.4233 | - 1.129 | [7] Spot Market Observation | Name | Value | | --- | --- | | Shanghai Composite Index change (%) | - 0.33 | | Shenzhen Component Index change (%) | - 0.22 | | Ratio of rising to falling stocks | 0.93 | | Trading volume of the two markets (billion yuan) | 17873.37 | | Trading volume MoM (billion yuan) | - 573.69 | [8]

1. Report Investment Rating - No information about the industry investment rating is provided in the report. 2. Core Viewpoint - The market has high expectations for increased sugar production in India and Thailand during the 25/26 sugar - making season, which suppresses sugar prices. However, due to the slightly slow production progress in Brazil and a high sugar - to - ethanol ratio, the expectation of a decline in Brazil's new - season sugar production in the overseas market is increasing, causing price fluctuations after a sharp drop in the overseas market. In the domestic market, the profit window for out - of - quota imports is open, and the domestic market is slightly stronger with a short - term upward trend [4]. 3. Summary by Directory 3.1 Sugar Price Forecast and Risk Management - **Price Range Forecast**: The monthly price range of sugar is predicted to be between 5800 - 6000, with a current 20 - day rolling volatility of 4.40% and a 3 - year historical percentile of 0.0% [3]. - **Risk Management Strategies** - **Inventory Management**: For enterprises with high finished - product inventory worried about sugar price drops, they can short Zhengzhou sugar futures (SR2509) with a 25% hedging ratio at 5900 - 6000 to lock in profits and cover production costs. They can also sell call options (SR509C6000) with a 25% ratio at 40 - 50 to collect premiums and lower costs [3]. - **Procurement Management**: For enterprises with low regular inventory and aiming to purchase based on orders, they can buy Zhengzhou sugar futures (SR2509) with a 50% hedging ratio at 5750 - 5800 to lock in procurement costs. They can also sell put options (SR509P5800) with a 75% ratio at 20 - 30 to collect premiums and reduce procurement costs [3]. 3.2 Core Contradictions - The high expectation of increased production in India and Thailand in the 25/26 season suppresses sugar prices. Brazil's slow production progress and high sugar - to - ethanol ratio lead to an increasing expectation of reduced production, causing price fluctuations in the overseas market. The domestic market is slightly stronger due to the open profit window for out - of - quota imports [4]. 3.3利多解读 (Positive Factors) - **Domestic Sales and Inventory**: As of the end of June, Guangxi's cumulative sugar sales reached 514.06 million tons, a year - on - year increase of 61.44 million tons, with a sales - to - production ratio of 79.51%, up 6.29 percentage points year - on - year. June's single - month sales were 49.53 million tons, a year - on - year increase of 7.73 million tons. Industrial inventory was 132.44 million tons, a year - on - year decrease of 33.08 million tons [5]. - **Indian Inventory**: The National Federation of Cooperative Sugar Factories in India (NFCSF) expects India's ending sugar inventory in the 2024/25 season to be between 480 - 500 million tons, sufficient to meet domestic consumption from October to November 2025 [6]. - **Import Restrictions**: China has suspended imports of Thai syrup and premixed powder [6]. - **Brazilian Production**: As of the second half of June in the 2025/26 season, Brazil's central - southern region had a cumulative cane crush of 206.198 billion tons, a year - on - year decrease of 33.747 billion tons (14.06%); cane ATR was 122.19 kg/ton, a decrease of 6.14 kg/ton year - on - year; the cumulative sugar - making ratio was 51.02%, an increase of 2.33 percentage points year - on - year; cumulative ethanol production was 9.425 billion liters, a year - on - year decrease of 1.639 billion liters (14.81%); and cumulative sugar production was 12.249 million tons, a year - on - year decrease of 2.036 million tons (14.25%) [6]. - **Import Reduction**: In June, the total import of syrup and premixed powder was 11.55 million tons, a significant year - on - year decrease of 10.35 million tons [8]. - **Biofuel Policy**: Brazil has increased the mandatory ethanol blending ratio in gasoline from 27% to 30% and the biodiesel ratio in diesel from 14% to 15% [8]. - **Market Demand**: Trump announced that Coca - Cola will use sugar as a beverage additive in the US again and launch new sugar - containing cola, and PepsiCo is also willing to enter the sugar - containing cola market if there is demand [9]. 3.4利空解读 (Negative Factors) - **Guangxi Production**: In the 2024/25 season, Guangxi's cumulative cane crush was 485.954 million tons, a year - on - year decrease of 25.847 million tons; mixed sugar production was 6.465 million tons, a year - on - year increase of 0.2836 million tons; and the sugar - making rate was 13.30%, an increase of 1.22 percentage points year - on - year [9]. - **Brazilian Production Forecast**: Analysts at JOB expect Brazil's sugar production in the 25/26 season to increase by 5% to 46 million tons [9]. - **Thai Production Forecast**: Thailand's sugar production in the 24/25 season is expected to reach 10.39 million tons [9]. - **Indian Production Forecast**: India's monsoon has arrived 3 - 4 days earlier than usual. The chairman of the federation expects a strong recovery in sugar production in the 2025/26 season, reaching about 35 million tons, due to favorable monsoon conditions, expanded cane - planting areas in major producing regions, and an increase in the minimum cane purchase price [9]. - **Import Volume**: In June, sugar imports were 424,600 tons, a year - on - year increase of 397,000 tons, and the profit for out - of - quota imports is open [9]. 3.5 Price and Spread Data - **Base Difference**: On July 25, 2025, the base differences between Nanning and various futures contracts (SR01, SR03, etc.) and between Kunming and various futures contracts showed different daily and weekly changes [10]. - **Futures Price and Spread**: On July 25, 2025, the closing prices, daily and weekly price changes of various sugar futures contracts (SR01, SR03, etc.) and their spreads were presented. For example, SR01 closed at 5706, with a daily increase of 0.67% and a weekly increase of 0.88% [11]. - **Spot Price and Regional Spread**: On July 25, 2025, the spot prices of sugar in Nanning, Liuzhou, Kunming, and Rizhao and their regional spreads showed different daily and weekly changes. For example, Nanning's price was 6050, with no daily or weekly change [12]. - **Import Price**: On July 25, 2025, the in - quota and out - of - quota import prices of Brazilian and Thai sugar and their spreads with domestic prices (Rizhao, Liuzhou, Zhengzhou sugar) showed different daily and weekly changes [13].

Report Information - Report Title: Apple Industry Risk Management Daily Report - Date: July 25, 2025 - Analyst: Bian Shuyang [2] Core Views - The current market is in the apple fruit expansion period with few trading points on the futures market. Attention should be paid to the opening price of early-maturing apples, which is higher than last year and sells well, while inventory apples are dropping in price and hard to sell. The recent rise in the futures market is mainly affected by low inventory, early-maturing apple prices, and sales. After August, the supply of early-maturing apples will increase significantly, and consumption should be monitored [4]. - The main bullish factors are that the inventory in apple-producing areas is at a historical low, and unstable weather in production areas has attracted capital attention, with possible large-scale production cuts in the Northwest [4]. - The main bearish factors are that the overall production cut is less than expected based on bagging data, and the peak season of seasonal fruits is approaching, which impacts apple sales and reflects weak consumption [4][5]. Price Forecast and Strategy Recommendations Price Forecast - The predicted monthly price range of apples is 7,650 - 7,950, with a current 20 - day rolling volatility of 10.5% and a historical percentile of 0.1% over the past three years [3]. Strategy Recommendations - **Inventory Management**: To prevent losses from new - season inventory accumulation, enterprises can short sell Apple Futures (AP2510) at a hedging ratio of 25% when the price is between 8,100 - 8,150 [3]. - **Procurement Management**: To prevent rising procurement costs due to price increases, buyers can buy Apple Futures (AP2510) at a hedging ratio of 50% when the price is between 7,900 - 7,950 [3].
