Construction steel sales on the 25th were 11110 tons [5] - Steel production resumed last week, with rebar production decreasing and hot - rolled coil increasing. The five major steel products accumulated inventory, but the speed slowed down [5] - Steel exports remained strong, and hot - rolled apparent demand was high. Building material demand rebounded from the bottom [5] - Steel demand improved, iron - water production remained high, and exports were strong, supporting steel prices [5] - As the parade approaches, iron - water production is expected to decrease next week, relieving supply pressure [5] - A coal mine accident in Fujian increased the expectation of coal mine production cuts, supporting pre - parade steel prices [5] - After August, coal consumption will decline, and if the coal mine production cut expectation fails, post - parade steel prices may face pressure [7] Trading Strategies - Unilateral: Steel prices will maintain a bottom - oscillating trend [7] - Arbitrage: Close profitable long - short positions [8] - Options: Wait and see [9] Group 3: Coking Coal and Coke Related Information - Henan coke enterprises will limit production by 20 - 35% from August 25 to September 3, and some have already implemented a 30 - 35% limit [10] - The coke price in Xingtai is planned to increase, with wet - quenched coke up 50 yuan/ton and dry - quenched coke up 55 yuan/ton [10][17] Logical Analysis - Coking coal prices fluctuated, and downstream procurement enthusiasm weakened.

Non - mainstream mine shipments were high in August [15] - In July, manufacturing and infrastructure investment growth slowed down.
