  1. Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant content provided. 2. Core View of the Report - Copper prices are expected to oscillate at high levels in the short - term due to a combination of factors such as a tight supply of raw materials, a marginal stabilization of processing fees, and a weakening in consumer resilience, along with support from a rapid decline in LME's available registered warehouse receipts and high positions in near - month contracts of SHFE copper approaching delivery [1]. - Aluminum prices are expected to have limited upward potential. Although the mood of economic and trade negotiations is positive and domestic inventories are decreasing rapidly, the US's increase in tariffs on imported aluminum products has put pressure on demand expectations [3]. - Lead prices are expected to remain weak as downstream consumer demand continues to decline, while the production of primary lead has increased, and the inventory of recycled lead remains high [4]. - Zinc prices may decline further. With an oversupply of zinc ore, an increase in the profit of zinc smelters, and weak terminal consumption, if there is no production control from the industrial side, zinc prices may continue to fall [6]. - Tin prices are expected to oscillate in the short - term. Although there is an expectation of a looser supply, there is still significant short - term uncertainty, and downstream enterprises have a strong demand for low - price procurement [8]. - Nickel's short - term fundamentals have slightly improved, but the long - term outlook is bearish. It is advisable to wait for a rebound and then short at high prices [9]. - The short - term fundamentals of lithium carbonate have not changed substantially, and the price is likely to oscillate at the bottom with limited rebound potential [11]. - Alumina prices are expected to be anchored by costs. With continuous disturbances in the ore market and an over - capacity situation, it is recommended to short at high prices lightly [13]. - The stainless - steel market will continue to face pressure in the short - term due to high inventory, weak demand, weakened cost support, and downward macro - economic pressure [15]. 3.
