Report Summary 1. Industry Investment Rating No industry investment rating was provided in the report. 2. Core Viewpoint The recent rebound in the coal and coke futures market is mainly driven by the game of the main contract approaching delivery and the impact of government intervention on market expectations. However, the current supply - demand pattern shows both supply and demand are weak. With limited driving force from the winter storage replenishment market, the report is skeptical about the sustainability of a significant upward trend in prices [6]. 3. Summary by Directory Coal and Coke Weekly Viewpoint - Supply: This week, coal mines in major producing areas were restricted by factors such as safety inspections and underground working conditions, resulting in continuous production disruptions. The overall supply was difficult to fully release, and the resumption of production was slow. The daily output of raw coal in sample coal mines increased by 29,000 tons week - on - week [3]. - Demand: The restocking demand of coking and steel enterprises has rebounded, and the demand for some high - quality coal types has recovered, but the overall demand is still limited. This week, the molten iron output continued to decline significantly, decreasing by 26,500 tons week - on - week to 2.2655 million tons. On Friday, the third round of price cuts for coke was initiated and is expected to be implemented next Monday [4]. - Macro: To cope with the start of the 15th Five - Year Plan, there are relatively frequent domestic year - end meetings, which can still boost market risk appetite to a certain extent, and the valuations of various risk assets have shown a certain upward repair [5].

For example, the capacity utilization rate of 247 steel enterprises for coke production is around 82% - 89% [38][40]. - Inventory: Coke inventory data is presented for coking plants, steel mills, and the overall sample. The inventory of independent coking enterprises and steel mills' coking plants shows different changes. For example, the inventory of independent coking enterprises' coke has changed over time [46][47]. - Supply - Demand and Profit: The supply - demand difference of coke and the profit situation of coking enterprises are also presented.
