Report Summary 1. Report Industry Investment Rating - No specific industry investment rating is provided in the given reports. 2. Core Views - Steel: The futures prices of steel were slightly weak on Monday, with spot prices following the decline. Although the trading volume remained above 100,000 tons, speculative demand was lacking. As the long - holiday approached and restocking neared completion, the spot trading activity cooled further. Macro - level, US interest rate cuts are favorable for liquidity and risk appetite in the medium - term, but there is no obvious expected trading in the short - term. At the industry level, the peak - season demand for steel was flat, and the improvement in the apparent demand for building materials was marginal, unable to form a strong upward drive. With the approaching holiday, restocking is almost over, and cost support has temporarily ended. High steel production raises concerns about the future market. It is recommended to take a wait - and - see approach on the single - side and reduce positions during the holiday [2][7]. - Silicon Iron and Manganese Silicon: The fundamentals of silicon iron and manganese silicon are concerning. Silicon iron has high supply, weak demand, and neutral inventory, while manganese silicon has high supply, weak demand, and high inventory. Short - term alloy plant profits are near the break - even point, and the motivation to maintain production is high. Before the holiday, they mainly follow the black - metal sector. The weak fundamentals will suppress price increases. Industry self - discipline is not optimistic, and large - scale production cuts are unlikely. With the arrival of the peak seasons (Golden September and Silver October), the terminal demand needs verification, and the risk of a decline in iron - water and electric - furnace starts is accumulating, which may directly impact the demand for these two alloys [2]. - Coking Coal and Coke: The first round of coke price increases has been partially implemented, but the market trading sentiment has weakened due to the decline in the futures market. The coking - coal auction in the production areas has mostly fallen. The futures market of coking coal and coke has been weak, possibly due to concerns about weak terminal demand after the holiday. Although the fundamentals of steel are improving marginally before the holiday, the market is worried about the continuation of weak terminal demand after the holiday and the weakening of cost support. It is recommended to hold light positions during the holiday and sell on rallies for hedging [7]. - Iron Ore: The peak - season demand for steel has been flat, and the inventory has changed from accumulation to slight de - stocking, mainly due to the reduction in steel production. The flat demand cannot drive a strong rebound. High iron - water production throughout the year may lead to an oversupply of steel in the second half of the year if production is not reduced after the holiday. The support from inventory rotation for ore prices will disappear after the holiday, and the expected increase in iron - ore supply from Simandou restricts the price ceiling. The fundamentals of the black - metal market are expected to weaken after the National Day holiday, but the downward pressure is limited [7]. 3.
