Report Summary 1. Report Industry Investment Rating No investment rating is provided in the report. 2. Core Viewpoints - Fundamentally, zinc ore imports at home and abroad are on the rise, zinc ore processing fees are continuously increasing, and the sulfuric acid price has risen significantly, leading to further recovery of smelter profits and increased production enthusiasm. New production capacities are being released, and previously shut - down capacities are resuming production, resulting in a faster growth in supply. Currently, the import loss continues to widen, and the inflow of imported zinc has decreased. On the demand side, the downstream is in the off - season, and the operating rate of processing enterprises has declined year - on - year. Although the zinc price has dropped recently and downstream enterprises are purchasing on demand at low prices, overall trading remains dull. Domestic social inventories continue to accumulate, and the spot premium has declined. Overseas, LME inventories have decreased significantly, and the strong LME zinc price has driven up the domestic zinc price. Technically, with increasing positions and rising prices, the bullish sentiment is strong. Attention should be paid to the resistance at the 23,000 mark. It is recommended to wait and see for now [3]. 3.
