Nanhua Futures(SH:603093) Nan Hua Qi Huo·2025-07-28 02:42Report 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].
