  1. Report Industry Investment Rating - Not provided in the document 2. Core Views of the Report - Gold: The price was supported by strong buying after a decline, with a rebound due to disappointing US non - farm payroll data. The short - term gold - silver ratio may be in a rebound channel, and the overall gold and silver market lacks a clear trend, mainly in a range - bound pattern [7]. - Silver: The upward space is basically saturated, showing a relatively weak trend this week [7]. - Copper: Global total inventory increased, with a significant increase in LME inventory. The copper price's driving logic will shift from inventory - structure logic to fundamental logic. Although there are uncertainties in the macro - environment, there is support at the bottom. Downstream buyers are more active at low prices, and LME copper price may be weak, which is favorable for the internal - external reverse arbitrage [90]. 3.
