Report Information - Report Title: Black Series Weekly Report [2] - Report Date: July 25, 2025 [2] - Author: Shi Lei, Shi Zhuoran [2] Industry Investment Rating - No industry investment rating is provided in the report. Core Viewpoints - In the medium to long term, due to the continuous fermentation of anti - involution policies and the confirmation of coal mine production inspections, the black series futures showed an upward trend in the market, but the impact on iron ore was relatively small. Steel mills' profitability continued to increase, daily average pig iron production slightly declined, and foreign ore shipments rebounded. The black series is expected to operate in a volatile and upward - trending manner, and attention should be paid to relevant policy announcements and implementation [52]. - In the short term, the black series will continue its upward trend, and attention should be paid to policy implementation and macro - sentiment changes [53]. - For glass and soda ash, in the medium to long term, the float glass start - up rate has slightly declined, with potential future production cuts, continuous reduction of in - factory inventory, and cost - side support for prices, but limited improvement in demand. Soda ash production has decreased, but the oversupply situation persists, and the recent price increase is mainly due to macro - level disturbances [56]. - In the short term, the glass futures contract has risen significantly, and a bullish view is maintained in the short term. The soda ash 09 contract has also risen, but the oversupply situation remains unchanged, and excessive chasing of the rise is not recommended [57].
