  1. Report Industry Investment Rating - Not provided in the content 2. Core Viewpoints of the Report - The main contract of Shanghai copper fluctuates strongly, with an increase in open interest, spot premium, and weakening basis. Fundamentally, in the mining end, the TC cost of copper concentrate has improved but remains in the negative range, and the port inventory in China has slightly increased. The tight supply of copper ore still supports the copper price. In terms of supply, due to the increase in newly put - into - production capacity and the high price of by - product sulfuric acid to make up for smelting losses, smelters are currently actively producing. However, considering the supply of copper concentrate, the production growth rate may gradually slow down. In terms of demand, the impact of the consumption off - season is expected to continue, and the export demand will be suppressed due to the high taxes on copper products in the US. So the downstream consumption demand may slow down, and the total inventory remains at a medium - low level. Overall, the fundamentals of Shanghai copper may be in a situation where the supply growth rate gradually slows down and the demand is slightly weak due to seasonal changes and trade tariffs. In the options market, the call - put ratio of at - the - money options is 1.25, with a month - on - month increase of 0.0050, indicating a bullish sentiment, and the implied volatility slightly decreases.
