行业研究丨行业周报丨钢铁 [Table_Title] 为何钢铁的需求侧具有韧性？ 报告要点 [Table_Summary] 回顾 2025 年钢铁需求侧表现， 1~10 月粗钢、钢材产量同比分别-3.9%、+4.7%。钢材产量由 于涉及冷轧、钢管等二次材重复计算的问题，伴随钢铁产品结构升级和二次材占比的提升，或 对实际产量有所高估。粗钢产量由于系钢企自行上报，缺乏严格监督机制，不涉及流转税数据 的检验，导致实际的产量或有所低估。由此，实际钢铁产量或介于统计局粗钢产量和钢材产量 之间。结合钢材库存整体去化至低位，当前库存水平和年初库存水平差异也不大，表明 2025 年 钢铁总需求相对 2024 年是较为平稳的。为何钢铁的需求侧具有韧性？ 丨证券研究报告丨 分析师及联系人 [Table_Author] 王鹤涛 赵超 易轰 吕士诚 SAC：S0490512070002 SAC：S0490519030001 SAC：S0490520080012 SAC：S0490525080005 SFC：BQT626 SFC：BUY139 SFC：BUZ394 请阅读最后评级说明和重要声明 %% %% %% %% research ...
