Summary by Relevant Catalogs 3.1 Research Views - Steel: The rebar futures price on September 23, 2025, showed a strong and volatile trend. The closing price of the rebar 2601 contract was 3185 yuan/ton, up 13 yuan/ton (0.41%) from the previous trading day, with a decrease of 109,000 lots in positions. The spot price was stable with an increase, and the trading volume recovered. The national building materials inventory decreased by 1.63% to 518.39 million tons, and the hot - rolled coil inventory increased by 1.74% to 224.59 million tons. The steel industry's growth plan boosted market sentiment, and it is expected that the short - term rebar futures will be in narrow - range consolidation [1]. - Iron Ore: The main contract i2601 of iron ore futures showed a volatile trend on September 23, 2025, closing at 808.5 yuan/ton, up 1 yuan/ton (0.12%) from the previous trading day, with a trading volume of 410,000 lots and a decrease of 12,000 lots in positions. The supply side showed a decline in shipments from Australia and Brazil, while the demand side saw an increase in molten iron production and a decline in steel mill profitability. With multiple factors at play, the ore price is expected to fluctuate in a narrow range [1]. - Coking Coal: On September 23, 2025, the coking coal futures price declined. The closing price of the coking coal 2601 contract was 1217.5 yuan/ton, down 14.5 yuan/ton (1.18%), with a decrease of 7023 lots in positions. The supply side saw an increase in production at coal mines, and the demand side showed an increase in demand from coking enterprises. However, due to the general profit situation of coking and steel enterprises, it is expected that the short - term coking coal futures will have wide - range fluctuations [1]. - Coke: On September 23, 2025, the coke futures price declined. The closing price of the coke 2601 contract was 1718 yuan/ton, down 20.5 yuan/ton (1.18%), with a decrease of 489 lots in positions. The supply side faced rising costs of coking coal, and the demand side saw an increase in demand from some steel mills. But due to the poor profitability of steel mills, the short - term coke futures are expected to have wide - range fluctuations [1]. - Manganese Silicon: On September 23, 2025, the manganese silicon futures price showed a weakening trend. The main contract was reported at 5870 yuan/ton, down 1.84% from the previous day, with an increase of 5304 lots in positions to 339,800 lots. The current weekly output of manganese silicon is still high, and the demand side has limited drivers. The cost and inventory sides have little change, so it is expected to follow the overall trend of black commodities [1]. - Ferrosilicon: On September 23, 2025, the ferrosilicon futures price showed a weakening trend. The main contract was reported at 5648 yuan/ton, down 2.01% from the previous day, with a decrease of 11,755 lots in positions to 200,000 lots. The production of ferrosilicon is at a relatively high level, and the demand side has weak drivers. Although the cost of raw materials has increased, the inventory is still high. Therefore, it is expected to follow the overall trend of black commodities [3]. 3.2 Daily Data Monitoring - The report provides data on contract spreads, basis, and spot prices of various black commodities such as rebar, hot - rolled coil, iron ore, coke, coking coal, manganese silicon, and ferrosilicon, as well as data on profits and spreads between different varieties [4]. 3.3 Chart Analysis - Main Contract Prices: The report presents the closing price trends of main contracts of rebar, hot - rolled coil, iron ore, coke, coking coal, manganese silicon, and ferrosilicon from 2020 to 2025 [6][7][10][15]. - Main Contract Basis: The report shows the basis trends of rebar, hot - rolled coil, iron ore, coke, coking coal, manganese silicon, and ferrosilicon [17][18][21][23]. - Inter - period Contract Spreads: The report displays the spread trends between different contracts of rebar, hot - rolled coil, iron ore, coke, coking coal, manganese silicon, and ferrosilicon [26][31][32][33][36][37]. - Inter - variety Contract Spreads: The report presents the spread trends between different varieties such as main contract hot - rolled coil and rebar, rebar and iron ore, rebar and coke, etc [41][43][45]. - Rebar Profits: The report shows the profit trends of rebar main contracts such as disk profit, long - process profit, and short - process profit [46][50]. 3.4 Black Research Team Member Introduction - The report introduces the members of the black research team, including their positions, work experience, and relevant qualifications [52][53].
