  1. Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant content provided. 2. Core Views of the Report - The US copper tariff policy has increased market volatility, and there are still uncertainties in current policies, with risks of fluctuations remaining. In July, China's refined copper production is expected to remain high, downstream demand is weak in the off - season, but increased exports may keep inventories stable. Overseas hidden inventories may become more visible [1]. - The aluminum price oscillated and rebounded. Domestically, the commodity atmosphere is strong, but the sustainability of the bullish sentiment is questionable. Overseas trade situations are uncertain. Aluminum ingot inventories are low, but supply may increase in July, which will resist the upward movement of aluminum prices [3]. - The lead price is generally strong, but the increase in Shanghai lead is expected to be limited due to weak domestic consumption [5]. - The zinc price is under pressure as the zinc ore supply is high, the TC is rising, the expected increase in zinc ingot production is high, and the LME zinc Cash - 3S structure is downward [7]. - The short - term supply of tin ore is in short supply, but the downstream's acceptance of high - priced raw materials is limited. The domestic tin price is expected to oscillate between 250,000 - 270,000 yuan/ton, and the LME tin price between 31,000 - 33,000 dollars/ton [8][9]. - The nickel price is weak. The current main contradiction lies in the ferro - nickel production line. The stainless - steel demand is weak, causing the ferro - nickel price to fall, and the nickel price is over - valued compared to ferro - nickel. It is recommended to short at high prices [10]. - The lithium carbonate price has a rebound trend, but the supply - demand relationship has not changed significantly. If there is no macro - level bullish factor, the upward space of the lithium price is limited [12]. - The alumina futures price is still anchored by cost, and the ore price is the core contradiction. It is recommended to short at high prices [15]. - The stainless - steel market has a short - term oversupply situation, and the weak operation of the spot market is expected to continue [17]. - The supply and demand of cast aluminum alloy are both weak in the off - season. The price is mainly affected by the aluminum price and faces resistance to rise [19]. 3.
