Report Industry Investment Rating - No relevant content provided Core Viewpoints - The main contract price of rebar weakened again, with a daily decline of 1.32%, and the volume decreased while the open interest increased. Currently, rebar supply has been continuously shrinking at a low level, supporting steel prices, but demand is also weak. In the situation of weak supply and demand, the fundamentals have not improved, and steel prices are under pressure in the off - season. The relatively positive factor is the low valuation. It is expected that the trend will continue to oscillate and seek the bottom. Attention should be paid to the production changes of steel mills [5]. - The main contract price of hot - rolled coil weakened and declined, with a daily decline of 1.19%, and the volume decreased while the open interest increased. At present, both supply and demand of hot - rolled coil have weakened, the industrial contradiction has not been alleviated, and the inventory reduction pressure is relatively large, so the hot - rolled coil price continues to be under pressure. The relatively positive factor is the low valuation. In the weak reality pattern, the hot - rolled coil will continue to operate in a weak oscillation. Attention should be paid to the production situation of steel mills [5]. - The main contract price of iron ore fell from a high level, with a daily decline of 1.30%, and both volume and open interest decreased. Currently, short - term positive factors support the iron ore price to return to a high level, but the demand for iron ore continues to decline while the supply remains at a high level. In the situation of strong supply and weak demand, the fundamentals of the iron ore market are weak, and the upward driving force is not strong. Under the game of multiple and short factors, the iron ore price will maintain a high - level oscillation. Attention should be paid to the performance of steel products [5]. Summary by Directory 1.

Related Charts - The report provides charts on steel inventory (including rebar and hot - rolled coil inventory), iron ore inventory (including port inventory, 247 - steel - mill inventory, and domestic mine iron concentrate powder inventory), and steel - mill production situation (including blast furnace operating rate, capacity utilization rate, profitability ratio, etc.) [16][21][32] 5.后市研判 - Rebar: Supply and demand continue to weaken. The weekly output of rebar decreased by 105,300 tons month - on - month, and supply has continuously shrunk to a low level, supporting steel prices, but the sustainability of short - process steel mill production cuts needs to be tracked. Meanwhile, rebar demand is weak, with the weekly apparent demand decreasing by 138,900 tons month - on - month, and high - frequency daily transactions are weakly stable. Both are at low levels in recent years, and downstream conditions have not improved. It is expected that demand will continue to weaken seasonally, putting pressure on steel prices. Overall, rebar supply is continuously shrinking at a low level, supporting steel prices, but demand is also weak. In the situation of weak supply and demand, the fundamentals have not improved, and steel prices are under pressure in the off - season. The relatively positive factor is the low valuation. It is expected that the trend will continue to oscillate and seek the bottom. Attention should be paid to the production changes of steel mills [42]. - Hot - rolled coil: The supply - demand pattern remains weak. The weekly output of hot - rolled coil decreased by 56,000 tons month - on - month, and supply has continuously shrunk from a high level, but the inventory level is high, and the pressure relief is limited. Meanwhile, hot - rolled coil demand remains weak, with weak weekly apparent demand and high - frequency transactions. The relatively positive factor is that the production of the main downstream cold - rolled products has continued to increase, supporting demand, but there are concerns about external demand due to export policy disturbances. At present, both supply and demand of hot - rolled coil have weakened, the industrial contradiction has not been alleviated, and the inventory reduction pressure is relatively large. The hot - rolled coil price continues to be under pressure. The relatively positive factor is the low valuation. In the weak reality pattern, the hot - rolled coil will continue to operate in a weak oscillation. Attention should be paid to the production situation of steel mills [42]. - Iron ore: The supply - demand pattern continues to weaken. At the end of the year, more steel mills are under maintenance, and the terminal demand for iron ore continues to decline. The average daily hot - metal output and imported ore consumption of sample steel mills decreased again last week, and the decline rate has increased. Moreover, the profitability of steel mills has not improved, and iron ore demand is expected to remain weak, putting pressure on iron ore prices. Meanwhile, the arrival volume at domestic ports has continued to decline, while the shipments of overseas miners have increased month - on - month, and both are still at high levels within the year. Overseas iron ore supply is active. Even though domestic ore supply is seasonally shrinking, iron ore supply remains high. In short, short - term positive factors support the iron ore price to return to a high level, but iron ore demand continues to decline while the supply remains at a high level. In the situation of strong supply and weak demand, the fundamentals of the iron ore market are weak, and the upward driving force is not strong. Under the game of multiple and short factors, the iron ore price will maintain a high - level oscillation. Attention should be paid to the performance of steel products [43].
