Different commodities are expected to show various trends based on their own fundamentals and macro - economic factors [2][5]. 3.

Commodity fluctuations have intensified. A - shares opened lower and closed higher with heavy trading volume. The bond market significantly adjusted under pressure. In the long - term, social security policies are expected to ease over - capacity and involution problems, and domestic demand policies may continue to strengthen.

COMEX gold futures rose 2.08% to $3383 per ounce, while COMEX silver futures fell 0.09% to $38.33 per ounce. The market is concerned about Sino - US economic and trade negotiations and the Fed meeting. The US and China will extend reciprocal tariffs and counter - measures for 90 days. The EU may purchase 40 billion euros of AI chips in the US - EU trade agreement. The US labor market data is weak, and the trade deficit has narrowed. The market expects the Fed to keep interest rates unchanged this week but is highly concerned about its policy outlook. If more Fed members support a rate cut in September, it may boost gold prices. Short - term gold and silver prices are expected to fluctuate [4][5][6]. 3.3 Copper - On Tuesday, SHFE copper was weakly volatile, and LME copper sought support at the $9700 level. The spot market trading of electrolytic copper improved slightly, and domestic trade copper rose to a premium of 110 yuan/ton. The Sino - US economic and trade talks made positive progress, and the IMF significantly raised China's economic growth forecast for this year to 4.8%.

The spot alumina national average price rose to 3267 yuan/ton. The Australian alumina FOB price increased to $379 per ton.

The downstream buying willingness is low, and the spot market maintains a small premium. The Sino - US trade negotiations have not made a major breakthrough. The market is waiting for the Fed's interest - rate decision and domestic important meetings. Although heavy rain in the north has not affected galvanizing plant production, terminal demand is insufficient. It is expected that zinc prices will fluctuate narrowly in the short - term [14][15]. 3.7 Lead - On Tuesday, SHFE lead showed narrow - range fluctuations. Heavy rain in the Beijing - Tianjin - Hebei region has affected raw material transportation. The supply shortage in some areas has slightly improved. The supply is mixed with both positive and negative factors, and consumer demand has changed little. It is expected that lead prices will consolidate horizontally in the short - term [16][17]. 3.8 Tin - On Tuesday, SHFE tin was volatile. The rainy season in Myanmar may disrupt tin ore transportation, intensifying the shortage of raw material supply. Domestic refined tin smelter operations have marginally improved but remain at a low level. The off - season for downstream consumption continues, and high - price buying is insufficient. Domestic inventories have increased, but LME inventories are at a low level.

The weather in the US soybean - producing areas is favorable, increasing the expectation of high yields. The US and China will extend reciprocal tariffs and counter - measures for 90 days.
