铁合金周报：硅锰：关注减产持续性，静待新的驱动；硅铁：成本支撑加强，维持震荡格局-20251109

1. Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant content provided. 2. Core Views of the Report Silicon Manganese - This week, the silicon manganese market was generally weak, with the futures price fluctuating with the black series. In the fourth quarter, affected by seasonal factors, terminal demand weakened, steel prices were poor, and steel mills' pressure on silicon manganese prices was obvious. The spot price continued to decline, and the factory's shipment difficulty increased. The supply - demand was in a weak state, and the alloy factory's production pressure increased. The new production furnace this year may fall short of expectations. The manganese ore market in Tianjin Port was oscillating strongly, while that in Qinzhou Port was stable. [5][7] - The core contradiction lies in the game between supply contraction expectations and weak demand, cost support and inventory pressure, and technical oscillations and fundamental changes. The recommended strategy for next week is mainly range operation, with futures testing short at 5850 - 5880 yuan/ton and testing long below 5700 yuan/ton. Pay attention to the arbitrage of the north - south spot price difference. [10] Silicon Iron - This week, the spot price of the main production area of silicon iron declined slightly, and the new round of steel mill tender prices showed mixed changes with a small adjustment range. The futures price of the main contract oscillated flat, and the futures - spot was basically at par. The supply pressure increased moderately, the cost support was strengthened, but the enterprise was still in a loss state and the inventory was high. The demand for steel was stable but without increment, and the non - steel and export sectors could not make up for the gap, and the winter storage had not started. [16] - The core logic is the game between cost support and loose supply - demand. The key lies in the price increase of semi - coke, the impact of cooling, winter storage, and production restrictions. The short - term strategy is to operate in the range of 5500 - 5600 yuan/ton. [16] 3. Summary by Directory 01 Silicon Manganese Core Views and Strategy Recommendations Market Review - Supply: The operating rate in the southern main production area decreased, especially in Yunnan. In Inner Mongolia, there is room for the operating rate to decline. The factory's recent quotations are few, and the transactions are mainly based on the futures price. [7] - Demand: The output of the five major steel products decreased this week. Steel mills entered the maintenance stage, and the demand is expected to decline. The factory's inventory pressure is large, and the willingness of northern factories to reduce production is low. [7] Influence Factor Analysis - Macro: Neutral. [8] - Demand: Downward. The weekly demand for silicon manganese in the five major steel types decreased by 2.71% week - on - week, and the national silicon manganese output decreased by 2.81% week - on - week. [8] - Supply: Upward. The operating rate of 187 independent silicon manganese enterprises decreased by 2.75% week - on - week, and the daily output decreased by 835 tons. [8] - Inventory: Downward. The inventory of 63 independent silicon manganese enterprises increased by 5000 tons. [8] - Basis: Neutral. The main basis was - 60 yuan/ton, with a decline rate of 13.88% compared with the previous week. [8] - Cost and Profit: Upward. The cost support was strengthened, but the enterprise's loss increased. [8] Strategy Recommendation - Next week's strategy is mainly range operation. Futures test short at 5850 - 5880 yuan/ton and test long below 5700 yuan/ton. Pay attention to the north - south spot price difference arbitrage. Spot traders reduce inventory at high prices in the north and replenish inventory at low prices in the south. Production enterprises should do a good job in hedging or slow down production. [10] 02 Silicon Iron Core Views and Strategy Recommendations Market Review - Spot: The spot price in the main production area declined slightly. The new round of steel mill tender prices showed mixed changes with a small adjustment range, and the procurement volume maintained the rigid demand level. [16] - Futures: The main contract of silicon iron oscillated flat this week, with a trading range of 5518 - 5586 yuan/ton. [16] Influence Factor Analysis - Macro: Neutral. [19] - Demand: Upward. The inventory of 60 independent silicon iron enterprises increased by 9.31% week - on - week. [19] - Supply: Downward. The operating rate of 136 independent silicon iron enterprises increased by 0.18% week - on - week, and the daily output increased by 0.80%. [19] - Inventory: Downward. The inventory of 60 independent silicon iron enterprises increased by 9.31% week - on - week. [19] - Basis: Neutral. The basis was 274 yuan/ton, with a decline rate of 45.99% compared with the previous week. [19] - Cost and Profit: Upward. The cost support was significantly strengthened, and the enterprise's loss amplitude narrowed but still did not get out of the loss state. [19] Strategy Recommendation - Short - term strategy is to operate in the range of 5500 - 5600 yuan/ton. In the long - term, pay attention to the change of contradictions. The industrial side can use futures to hedge risks. [17] 03 Silicon Manganese Data Tracking and Analysis Price Data - Futures: The closing price of the main contract decreased by 0.21% week - on - week, the trading volume decreased by 40.51%, and the open interest increased by 1.33%. [23] - Spot: The southern and northern spot prices decreased by 0.89% and 0.71% respectively week - on - week. The basis decreased by 13.33%. [23] Market Conditions - The warehouse receipts decreased slightly this week, and the effective forecasts increased slightly. The production and operating rates were still at a high level, and attention should be paid to the intensified production reduction during the dry season. The steel mill's operating rate decreased slightly, and the demand for silicon manganese was reduced. The overall inventory was at a high level, and the pressure to reduce inventory still existed. The manganese ore inventory in ports increased slightly, and the import volume decreased significantly. The manganese element price was weakly stable in the short term, and the mainstream cost of raw materials was stable with general short - term support. [32][37][43][50] 04 Silicon Iron Data Tracking and Analysis Price Data - Futures: The closing price of the main contract increased by 0.47% week - on - week, the trading volume decreased by 34.57%, and the open interest increased by 12.14%. [82] - Spot: The market price in Ningxia decreased by 1.72% week - on - week, and the trade price in Hebei increased by 0.90%. The basis decreased by 45.99%. [82] Market Conditions - The basis converged slightly. The trading volume on the disk was relatively active this week, and the open interest increased slightly. The supply decreased slightly, the demand decreased, and attention was paid to the new round of steel tenders. The inventory decreased slightly but was still under pressure. The cost decreased continuously this week, and the profit decline increased. [85][89][92][99][110][117]
