Report Summary 1. Industry Investment Rating No industry investment rating is provided in the report. 2. Core Views - Coke: As of the week ending November 7, the total daily coke output of all - sampled independent coking plants and steel - mill coking plants was 1.0968 million tons, a weekly decrease of 11,200 tons. On the demand side, the daily hot - metal output of 247 steel mills was 2.3422 million tons, a weekly decrease of 21,400 tons. The profitability rate of steel mills continued to decline by 5.19 percentage points to 39.83%, with over 60% of steel mills in a loss state, indicating continued demand pressure for coke. In terms of inventory, the coke inventory in each link of the industrial chain decreased this week. As of the latest data on November 7, the total coke inventory in the statistical scope was 8.8705 million tons, a weekly decrease of 129,700 tons. Overall, due to environmental protection restrictions and operational pressure, the supply and demand of coke are weak in the off - season, and the fundamentals lack effective support. The upward driving force mainly comes from coking coal on the cost side, supporting the main coke contract to oscillate at a high level. Attention should be paid to the subsequent changes in coking coal supply [6][35]. - Coking Coal: As of the week ending November 7, the daily output of clean coal from 523 coking coal mines nationwide was 738,000 tons, a decrease of 20,000 tons compared with the previous week and 47,000 tons compared with the same period last year. The total daily coke output of all - sampled independent coking plants and steel - mill coking plants was 1.0968 million tons, a weekly decrease of 11,200 tons. In terms of inventory, as of the week ending November 7, coking coal accumulated in the middle and upper reaches of the industrial chain and decreased in the downstream. Among them, the inventory of independent coking plants increased by 175,400 tons week - on - week, the port inventory increased by 141,200 tons week - on - week, and the coking coal inventory of 247 steel mills decreased by 90,200 tons week - on - week. Overall, the supply and demand of coking coal both decreased, and the fundamentals are neutral. The relative positive factor lies in the strong supply - side expectation brought by safety supervision and anti - involution. Attention should be paid to the subsequent production situation of coal mines in the main producing areas [7][36]. 3.
