Core Viewpoints - The steel market faces significant destocking pressure due to high supply and insufficient demand, and the futures market may be under pressure [3]. - The iron ore market has a marginal improvement in fundamentals, with short - term prices likely to rise due to demand recovery and supply disruptions [20]. - The coking coal and coke prices may be supported in the short term, but their rebound height depends on the downstream steel market's supply - demand balance [32]. - The ferroalloy market has a prominent contradiction between high supply and weak demand, and the price increase is restricted [45]. - The soda ash market has a pattern of strong supply and weak demand, with high - level inventory restricting the price [55]. - The glass market has a pattern of strong near - term supply and weak demand, and the price is restricted by high inventory and weak demand [82]. 3. Summary by Directory Steel - During the holiday, the apparent demand for the five major steel products was weak, inventory accumulated faster than usual, and the inventory - to - sales ratio reached the highest level in recent years. The hot - rolled coil inventory accumulation was significant. The steel market has a large destocking pressure [3]. - Long - process steel mills still have some profit margins and lack the motivation to cut production voluntarily, while the demand has not improved significantly. The contradiction between high supply and insufficient demand is prominent, and the pressure of negative - feedback production cuts is gradually accumulating [3]. - After the holiday, the raw material replenishment motivation is expected to be weak due to insufficient steel demand [3]. - The prices and spreads of rebar and hot - rolled coil futures on October 9, 2025, are presented in detail, showing price changes compared to September 30, 2025 [4]. Iron Ore - During the holiday, the iron ore market was stable, with shipments above 30 million tons, and the demand side saw steel mills replenishing stocks as needed. Terminal demand recovered seasonally, and inventory decreased, with the fundamentals improving marginally [20]. - Short - term disturbances may come from the supply side, such as China's request to suspend the purchase of BHP's seaborne cargoes and the accident at Simandou that may delay production [20]. - The price data of iron ore futures contracts on October 9, 2025, are provided, along with changes compared to September 30 and September 24, 2025 [21]. - The fundamental data of iron ore, including daily average pig iron production, port desilting volume, and inventory, show weekly and monthly changes [26]. Coking Coal and Coke - In the fourth quarter, domestic coking coal mine production is restricted by policies, and the supply elasticity is limited. The winter storage scale this year is expected to be better than last year, which may support prices [32]. - The rebound height and sustainability of coking coal and coke prices depend on the downstream steel market's supply - demand balance [32]. - The price data of coking coal and coke futures and spot on October 9, 2025, are presented, including basis, spreads, and profits [35][36]. Ferroalloy - The ferroalloy supply is at the highest level in the same period in the past five years, while the demand has not improved significantly during the peak season, resulting in a prominent contradiction between high supply and weak demand [45]. - The electricity price in Ningxia has increased, forming a cost - bottom expectation for silicon iron. However, the funds are withdrawing from the market, which restricts price increases [45]. - The daily data of silicon iron and silicon manganese on October 9, 2025, are provided, including basis, spreads, and spot prices [46][48]. Soda Ash - Market sentiment is volatile, increasing the price volatility of soda ash. The second - phase ignition of Yuanxing has started the trial operation, increasing the long - term supply pressure [55]. - The downstream demand for soda ash is mainly for rigid replenishment, and the alkali plants' high - level inventory has been somewhat relieved [55]. - The market has a pattern of strong supply and weak demand, and the high - level inventory restricts the price [55]. - The price and spread data of soda ash futures on October 9, 2025, are provided, along with changes compared to September 30, 2025 [56]. Glass - The glass market has high inventory in the upstream and mid - stream, and weak demand restricts the price. There are still differences in whether there will be an unexpected reduction in supply in the fourth quarter [82]. - The near - term supply is strong and demand is weak, and the mid - stream inventory in Shahe and Hubei is high, with weak phased replenishment ability [82]. - The price and spread data of glass futures on October 9, 2025, are provided, along with changes compared to September 30, 2025 [83]. - The daily sales data of glass in different regions from October 2 to 8, 2025, are presented [84].
