Ruida Futures(SZ:002961) Rui Da Qi Huo·2025-10-29 09:26Report's Investment Rating for the Industry - No investment rating for the industry is provided in the report. Core Viewpoints of the Report - On the raw material side, the Indonesian government's PNBP policy restricts issuance, increasing the cost of nickel resource supply; the growth of Indonesian ferronickel production has slowed down, and domestic production has gradually declined. Recently, the ferronickel price has rebounded from a low level, strengthening the support of raw material costs [2]. - On the supply side, steel mills' production profits have shrunk, but with the arrival of the traditional consumption peak season and the gradual increase in infrastructure and real - estate demand, stainless - steel mills' production schedules have still increased [2]. - On the demand side, infrastructure construction in October is expected to speed up, combined with the favorable domestic fiscal investment policies. Anti - involution measures are expected to improve the supply - demand pattern. Market procurement demand has resilience, and domestic inventories continue to decline [2]. - Technically, with the reduction of positions and price adjustments, both long and short sides are trading cautiously. Attention should be paid to the resistance at 12,900. It is recommended to wait and see for now [2].
