Report Summary 1. Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant content provided. 2. Core Viewpoints of the Report - The black metal sector maintained a weak and volatile trend today, with overall spot trading volume being generally weak and slightly weaker than yesterday [8]. - Affected by the military parade, building materials production decreased, but hot - rolled coil production increased. Steel inventories continued to accumulate, but the accumulation rate slowed down. The apparent demand for building materials and hot - rolled coils increased month - on - month [8]. - There is still support for steel exports recently, and the funds of downstream construction sites continue to improve, leading to a recovery in building materials demand. The current improvement in steel demand, the decline in molten iron output, and strong steel exports support steel prices. However, molten iron production may resume rapidly after the military parade. In September, coal daily consumption is expected to decline, blast furnaces will resume production, and the steel fundamentals will deteriorate. If coal mines resume production rapidly after the military parade, steel prices will still face pressure [8]. - It is expected that in the short term, capital will act first, and steel prices will maintain a weak and volatile trend. In September, attention should be paid to the peak - season demand for steel, coal mine safety inspections, overseas tariffs, and domestic macro and industrial policies [8]. 3.
