Report Industry Investment Ratings Not provided in the documents. Core Viewpoints of the Report - The drivers of commodity futures are differentiated, with coking coal being relatively strong and lithium carbonate and PTA being relatively weak [1]. - Stock indices are in a period of consolidation, and their medium - to long - term upward trend is clear. The bond market is running at a high level, and gold is oscillating at a high level [1]. Summary by Related Catalogs Stock Indices - Last week, the A - share market oscillated strongly, with the Shanghai Composite Index hitting a new high. The trading volume of the two markets was about 1.4 trillion yuan, slightly lower than the previous week. The steel, banking, and building materials sectors led the gains, while the comprehensive finance and computer industries led the losses. The four major stock index futures showed differentiated trends, with IF and IH strengthening, and IC and IM oscillating at high levels [1]. - In the short term, stock indices may maintain high - level consolidation. In the medium - to long - term, with clear policy support and improved fundamental expectations, the inflow of medium - to long - term funds continues, and the upward trend of stock indices is clear. Overseas, attention should be paid to the progress of US tariff negotiations. Domestically, during the interim report season, the earnings of IF and IH constituent stocks are more certain, and their trends may be stronger [1]. Bonds - Last week, the bond market rose slightly and remained at a high level. The US is in trade negotiations with many countries, and there is still high uncertainty. The central bank continued its net capital withdrawal operation at the beginning of the month, but the capital market remained loose, and the inter - bank capital cost declined across the board [1]. - Although the bond issuance pressure has increased, the market's expectation of liquidity remains optimistic. Overall, the macro - environment has strong uncertainty and limited trend drivers. The bond market remains at a high level, but there is still high - valuation pressure, and attention should be paid to the performance of the equity market [1]. Gold and Silver - The suspension period of US reciprocal tariffs is about to end, and short - term policy uncertainty has increased again. However, there are more signals of strong US economic resilience, which is conducive to restoring market risk appetite. The short - term probability of a Fed rate cut has decreased, and the factors favorable to the gold price in the long - term need further fermentation [1]. - In the short term, the driving force for the gold price to break through upwards is insufficient, and it will continue to oscillate at a high level in July. The gold - silver ratio is high, and there is a possibility of repair. The silver price has strong technical support below after the breakthrough. It is recommended to hold the sold out - of - the - money put option positions of the gold and silver 08 contracts until expiration [4]. Non - ferrous Metals Copper - Last week, Shanghai copper was strong in the first half of the week and fell back in the second half, returning below 80,000 yuan. The US is in trade negotiations with many countries, and there is still high uncertainty. The supply at the mine end remains tight, and attention should be paid to the development of the Peruvian copper mine incident [3][4]. - The demand remains cautiously expected, and the off - season and high prices have restricted the downstream to a certain extent. The inventories of domestic and overseas exchanges have increased across the board, and the LME spot premium has significantly declined. The financial attribute still supports the copper price in the medium - to long - term, and the low - inventory pattern is expected to remain unchanged before the copper tariff is implemented. However, the short - term positive factors may weaken [4]. Aluminum and Alumina - The US trade negotiation uncertainty remains high. The concern about ore disturbances in alumina has not subsided, but the domestic bauxite inventory is still high, and the short - term supply shortage concern is limited. The alumina production capacity is expanding rapidly, and the downstream demand has little room for growth, so the surplus pattern is difficult to change [3][4]. - For Shanghai aluminum, the supply constraint is still clear, and the import profit remains inverted. The demand is still cautious due to the off - season, and the inventory shows signs of accumulation. Overall, the alumina surplus pattern is difficult to change, and the price is under pressure. The medium - term upward trend of Shanghai aluminum remains unchanged, but the short - term demand and inventory have certain drags, and the influence of tariffs has increased [4]. Nickel - The supply of Philippine nickel ore has recovered seasonally, the port inventory has increased significantly, and the nickel ore price has weakened marginally. The supply of nickel iron is abundant, but the downstream acceptance is limited, and the price is under pressure [4]. - The production capacity of intermediate products is still expanding. The refined nickel production decreased in June, but the inventory remained oscillating at a high level. Overall, the demand is weak, the nickel supply has increased seasonally, and the surplus pattern is clear. As the macro - sentiment fades, the nickel price is under pressure. It is recommended to adopt the strategy of selling call options [4]. Energy and Chemicals Lithium Carbonate - The lithium ore price has stabilized, which has increased the cost support. However, the surplus pattern of the lithium salt market has not been substantially improved. The weekly output of lithium carbonate remains at a relatively high level of over 18,000 tons, while the downstream demand has insufficient growth, and the inventory is still in the accumulation cycle [6]. - The current periodical rebound can be used to short at high prices [6]. Industrial Silicon - The number of open furnaces in the industrial silicon market has increased this week. Some manufacturers in the southwest region have resumed production due to the implementation of the wet - season subsidy electricity price, and the market supply has increased [6]. - Since the warehouse receipts are still being depleted, the near - month contracts are strongly supported. Attention should be paid to the implementation of anti - involution production cuts on the supply side [6]. Steel and Ore Rebar - The spot price of rebar was stable to slightly lower over the weekend, and the spot trading was generally weak. The "anti - involution" concept has boosted market expectations, but the improvement at the spot level is limited. The speculative demand has recovered, but the rigid demand has weakened seasonally, and the marginal inventory reduction speed of rebar has gradually slowed down [6]. - It is expected that the rebar futures price has strong bottom support but is subject to double pressure from the electric - furnace cost and the sustainability of spot price increases. It is recommended to continue holding the sold out - of - the - money put option positions (RB2510P2900) [6]. Hot - Rolled Coil - The spot price of hot - rolled coil was generally stable over the weekend, with slight declines in some areas, and the spot trading was generally weak. The "anti - involution" concept has boosted market expectations, but the follow - up power at the spot level is insufficient. The supply and demand of hot - rolled coils are both strong, and the inventory has increased [6]. - It is expected that the hot - rolled coil futures price has strong bottom support but is subject to pressure from export costs and the sustainability of spot price increases during the off - season. It is recommended to temporarily wait and see on the single - side and consider participating in the arbitrage strategy of compressing profits for the 01 contract [6]. Iron Ore - Last week, the daily output of molten iron in the Steel Union sample decreased but remained above 2.4 million tons. Under the background of high molten iron output and low steel mill raw material inventory, the supply - demand contradiction of imported ore in July is limited [6]. - The "anti - involution" concept has boosted market expectations, and the steel futures and spot prices have risen in resonance. It is expected that the iron ore price will continue to oscillate strongly. It is recommended to continue holding the sold out - of - the money put option I2509 - P680 and consider participating in the 9 - 1 positive spread when the spread is low [6]. Coal and Coke Coking Coal - The raw coal inventory in coal mines has continued to decline, the pit - mouth transaction atmosphere has improved, and the enthusiasm of steel, coke enterprises, and trading links for raw material procurement and inventory has increased. The transaction rate has reached a new high for the year, and the short - term supply - demand mismatch has pushed up the coal price [8]. - It is recommended to continue holding the long - position strategy and pay attention to the coal mine production increase progress after the safety production month and the sustainability of downstream procurement [8]. Coke - Hebei steel mills may have production restrictions, but the daily output of molten iron is at a relatively high seasonal level, which supports the rigid demand for coke. The actual demand performance is good, while the coke oven operation is restricted by profit factors and is difficult to significantly increase production. Coke plants are actively reducing inventory, and there is an expectation of price increases in the spot market [8]. Soda Ash and Glass Soda Ash - The fundamentals of soda ash are clear. The daily output of soda ash remained unchanged at 99,300 tons on Friday, and Kunshan and Qinghai Fatou will resume production one after another this week. The demand for light soda ash is difficult to offset the reduction in heavy soda ash demand [8]. - The supply of soda ash is relatively loose, and the continuous passive inventory accumulation trend of alkali plants remains unchanged. In the short term, the soda ash price oscillates at a low level, and the near - month contracts are weaker than the far - month contracts due to the selling - hedging pressure. It is recommended to hold the short positions of the soda ash 09 contract with a stop - profit line and patiently hold the strategy of going long on glass 01 and short on soda ash 01 [8]. Float Glass - The operating capacity of float glass is temporarily stable, and the demand is difficult to digest both the supply and the existing inventory at the same time. The glass factory inventory fluctuates slightly, and it is difficult to reduce the high inventory [8]. - The "anti - involution" concept has promoted the recovery of market expectations, but the short - term implementation probability is low, and the cold - repair drive of glass factories is still accumulating. It is recommended to pay attention to the opportunity of going long on the 01 contract at low prices after the basis widens and continue to hold the arbitrage strategy of going long on glass 01 and short on soda ash 01 [8]. Crude Oil - OPEC+ has decided to increase production by 548,000 barrels per day in August, and the US "Big and Beautiful" Act has been passed by both houses of Congress, which may increase US crude oil production. The EIA weekly data shows an unexpected inventory accumulation, which is generally bearish [8]. - Overall, the OPEC+ production increase decision may increase the supply pressure, and the short - term oil price will oscillate weakly [8]. PTA - The cost - end crude oil OPEC+ continues to significantly increase production, and the oil price is expected to move down, providing weak support for energy - chemical products. In addition, the PTA supply side will face the pressure of new production capacity and the resumption of existing maintenance capacity in the third quarter, and the inventory - reduction pattern will turn into inventory accumulation [11]. - It is expected that the price will show an oscillating downward trend [11]. Methanol - Most Iranian methanol plants have restarted, but the operating load is low. The operating rate of overseas methanol plants has increased by 11% to 64%. Many plants in the northwest started maintenance last week, and the output will decrease by about 5% in the next month, and the factory inventory will also decrease passively [10]. - The monthly arrival volume has decreased more than expected, and the weekly volume is expected to not exceed 300,000 tons. Although the downstream demand has entered the off - season, the total demand has not changed significantly. Therefore, the supply will be tight in July, and the methanol price is supported. It is recommended to sell out - of - the - money put options or at - the - money straddles for the 08 options contract [10]. Polyolefins - OPEC+ is accelerating production increases, with an increase of 548,000 barrels per day starting in August and considering another increase of 548,000 barrels per day in September. The crude oil supply is increasingly surplus, and the price will continue to decline [10]. - In the second quarter, new polyolefin plants were successfully put into operation. In the second half of the year, PE will have 3.1 million tons of new production capacity, and PP will have 2.1 million tons of new production capacity, resulting in large supply pressure. It is recommended to go long on the L - PP spread and short on PP 3MA [10]. Cotton - The domestic cotton output in the 2025/26 season is expected to be 6.784 million tons, a slight year - on - year decrease, and the expectation of tight supply and demand in the current season has strengthened. The third quarter is the critical growth period of cotton, and any adverse weather conditions may cause final yield losses and push up the weather premium [10]. - The downstream textile enterprises are performing well, the terminal clothing consumption has remained basically unchanged year - on - year, and the commercial inventory has continued to decline. It is recommended to continue holding the previous long positions [10]. Rubber - The rubber tapping operations in domestic and Southeast Asian main producing areas have progressed smoothly, the impact of climate factors has weakened, and the expected seasonal increase in raw material supply has been realized. The downstream tire enterprises have difficulty in depleting finished - product inventory, which has dragged down the production line operation rate [10]. - The inventory at the port is accelerating accumulation, indicating an increase in supply and a decrease in demand in the fundamentals. The rubber price is likely to continue the weak - oscillation pattern, and it is recommended to hold the strategy of selling call options [10].
