市场需求不足，玻碱延续震荡

Report Industry Investment Ratings - No investment ratings for the industry are provided in the report. Core Views - The overall situation of the black building materials market is complex, affected by factors such as market demand, supply - demand relationship, and macro - expectations. Each variety has its own characteristics and price trends [1][2][4]. Summary by Variety Steel - Market Analysis: The steel futures market showed an upward trend in the disk yesterday. The rebar futures main contract closed at 3067 yuan/ton, and the hot - rolled coil main contract closed at 3219 yuan/ton. In terms of spot, the inventory of building materials increased by 50.03% month - on - month to 572.97 million tons, and the hot - rolled coil inventory increased by 40.90% month - on - month to 315.35 million tons. The spot trading of steel is in the seasonal off - season [1]. - Supply - Demand and Logic: As the Two Sessions approach, macro - expectations are more volatile. Building materials are in a situation of weak supply and demand, with seasonal inventory increases. The fundamentals have no prominent contradictions, and the price movement range is limited, following the raw material price fluctuations. The production and sales of strip steel have improved this week, and the demand for sheet metal is expected to further improve, but the high intermediate inventory suppresses the price [2]. - Strategy: The unilateral strategy is to expect a volatile trend, and there are no strategies for inter - period, inter - variety, spot - futures, and options [3]. Iron Ore - Market Analysis: The iron ore futures price was strong yesterday. In the spot market, the prices of mainstream imported iron ore varieties in Tangshan ports were strong. The total transaction volume of iron ore in major ports across the country was 701,000 tons, a month - on - month increase of 327.44%. The total transaction volume of forward - looking spot was 685,000 tons, a month - on - month increase of 73.86%. The global iron ore shipment volume was stable, with a total of 3.341 billion tons, a month - on - month increase of 0.6%. The arrival volume at 45 ports continued to decline, with a total of 2.147 billion tons, a month - on - month decrease of 0.3% [4]. - Supply - Demand and Logic: As the Two Sessions approach, macro - expectations are more volatile. Currently, the supply of iron ore is strong while the demand is weak, and the inventory has been at a high level for a long time, deepening the fundamental contradictions. Although steel mills have plans to resume production, the high supply and inventory still suppress the price. The high - price iron ore shipments remain high, and low prices can suppress the marginal supply of non - mainstream mines, gradually restoring the supply - demand balance. In the short term, the iron ore price still faces downward pressure [4]. - Strategy: The unilateral strategy is to be cautiously bearish, and there are no strategies for inter - period, inter - variety, spot - futures, and options [5]. Coking Coal and Coke (Double - Coking) - Market Analysis: The double - coking futures fluctuated yesterday. The port coke spot market was stable, and the domestic trade spot market had a general trading atmosphere. The coal mines had great pressure to sell, and the prices generally decreased by 20 - 100 yuan/ton. The customs clearance of imported Mongolian coal remained at a high level, and the price of Mongolian No. 5 raw coal was about 1000 - 1010 yuan/ton [7]. - Supply - Demand and Logic: For coking coal, the local supply has recovered quickly, the rigid demand of coking enterprises is stable, but they mainly consume raw material inventory, and the de - stocking pattern continues, with weak cost support. For coke, independent coking enterprises continue to accumulate inventory, which is at a medium - high level, and the total inventory has slightly increased, increasing the expectation of spot price cuts [7]. - Strategy: Both coking coal and coke are expected to show a volatile trend, and there are no strategies for inter - period and inter - variety [8]. Steam Coal - Market Analysis: In the production areas, the demand has recovered recently due to the resumption of work of many downstream enterprises. Most coal mines have queues of trucks for hauling, and the overall coal price has increased. In the port area, affected by the limited domestic resource transfer and the increase in upstream quotations, the ports are generally optimistic about the future, with high quotations. Some traders have a stronger willingness to sell for profit, but the actual transactions are few due to the high quotations. Currently, domestic resources are tight, and imports are also tense, providing short - term support for coal prices. In the import market, the Indonesian policy has not been implemented, and the market pattern is still volatile. Indonesian miners have few offers, and the market quotations and tender prices have increased significantly, but domestic tenders are cautious [9]. - Supply - Demand and Logic: After the Spring Festival, the demand has gradually recovered, leading to a strong coal price. Affected by the supply problems in the import market, the domestic coal price has continued to rise slightly. In the short term, the coal price is easy to rise and difficult to fall, but it will enter the off - season in March, and in the long - term, the supply - loose pattern remains unchanged. Attention should be paid to the consumption and restocking of non - power coal [9]. - Strategy: No strategies are provided [10].
