Report Core View - Short - term supply of ferroalloys increases while demand decreases, leading to a decline in ferroalloys among black varieties. The supply of silicon - manganese and ferrosilicon is on an accelerating upward trend, and the demand for steel - making is affected in the short term. The futures market may be under pressure, with a short - term bearish outlook [1][5] Market Conditions - The SM2601 contract closed at 5914 today, down 206 points or 3.37% from yesterday's close, with a daily increase in positions of 18.59%. The SF2601 contract closed at 5652, down 214 points or 3.65% from yesterday's close, with a daily increase in positions of 21.39% [4] Influencing Factors - Some steel mills in Tangshan received oral notices of environmental production restrictions. From August 25th to September 3rd, sintering machines will be restricted by 30%, and from August 31st to September 3rd, blast furnaces will be restricted by 40% [4] - Last week, the weekly operating rate of manganese - silicon enterprises was 45.75%, an increase of 2.32% from the previous week, and the daily average output was 29,580 tons, an increase of 1,605 tons. The weekly operating rate of ferrosilicon enterprises was 36.18%, a week - on - week increase of 1.86%, and the daily average output was 16,125 tons, a week - on - week increase of 3.43% or 535 tons [4] Analysis and Suggestions - The resumption of production of ferroalloy enterprises is accelerating, and the supply is increasing, which puts pressure on the prices of silicon - manganese and ferrosilicon. The approaching military parade on September 3rd has led to production restrictions in steel mills, affecting the short - term demand for ferroalloys in steel - making. The increasing hedging demand of enterprises may suppress the futures market, and the short - term outlook is bearish [5]
