Report Summary Investment Rating The report does not provide an overall investment rating for the industry. Core Views - Aluminum: Affected by the Iran and Strait blockade news, overseas supply is tightening. In the short - term, the micro - demand for electrolytic aluminum is weak, but the price may be driven by overseas factors. Alumina spot is stable, and the trading sentiment on the disk has a greater impact [6][7]. - Cast aluminum alloy: Follows the trend of electrolytic aluminum, and the pricing center moves up. In the short term, the AD price may continue to fluctuate strongly under cost support and moderate supply release [127]. - Zinc: Attention should be paid to the supply - side contradictions, and the zinc price volatility intensifies. In the long - term, the supply - side contradictions will continue to dominate the price, and the zinc price operation center is expected to move up [185][188]. - Lead: With the addition of new delivery products, the price fluctuates weakly. The lead market shows a pattern of both supply and demand increasing, and the price is expected to remain weak overall [259][265]. - Tin: The short - term tight pattern remains unchanged, and it is expected to stabilize and rebound.
