  1. Report Industry Investment Rating - No relevant information provided 2. Core View of the Report - The main contract of Shanghai copper fluctuated and declined, with a decrease in open interest, a premium in the spot market, and a strengthening basis. The copper price is supported by the cost of the concentrate due to the negative TC index of copper ore and the firm offer of concentrate. Supply is constrained by the tight supply of scrap copper and copper concentrate, and macro - factors such as the Fed's interest rate cut keep the copper price in a high - level range. However, the strong copper price suppresses downstream purchasing sentiment, resulting in a light trading volume in the spot market. The peak season has not yet boosted demand, and consumption recovery is slow. In the options market, the call - put ratio of at - the - money options is 1.38, with a month - on - month increase of 0.0514, indicating a bullish sentiment and a slight increase in implied volatility. Technically, the 60 - minute MACD shows both lines below the 0 - axis with an expanding green bar. The operation suggestion is to go long on dips with a light position, while paying attention to controlling the rhythm and trading risks [2]. 3.
