It provides investment strategies for each metal based on their supply - demand fundamentals and market trends [1][3][6]. 3. Summary by Metal Variety Gold and Silver - **Core View**: Long - term long positions are recommended. Gold has support due to factors like the US government shutdown, the debate on Trump's tariff legality, and geopolitical tensions. Silver follows related markets and has long - term demand supported by global policies [1][3]. - **Main Logic**: The US employment market is weakening, with a significant increase in corporate lay - offs in October. The uncertainty of Trump's tariff legality may lead to a large - scale tax refund. In the long run, gold will benefit from global monetary easing, the decline of the US dollar's credit, and the restructuring of the geopolitical pattern [3]. - **Strategy Recommendation**: Consider entering the market for the medium and long - term. The support levels are 900 for domestic gold and 11,200 for silver. Hold long - term value - allocation positions [4]. Copper - **Core View**: Long - term holding is recommended, and short - term light - position buying on dips is suggested [1][7]. - **Main Logic**: In Q3 2025, the output of major global copper mining enterprises decreased year - on - year, and this trend is expected to continue in Q4. Refined copper supply has shrunk. The US employment data is weakening, the government shutdown is ongoing, inflation data is lacking, and the Fed's hawkish stance has returned [6]. - **Strategy Recommendation**: Buy on dips with a light position in the short - term.

Supply is still growing, but there are some production restrictions in Sichuan [20][22] - **Investment Strategy**: Consider long - positions in the range of 82800 - 85500 [23]

Core Viewpoint - The non-ferrous metal sector has shown strong performance this year, driven by supply-demand imbalances and financial attributes under a global monetary easing backdrop [1][2]. Supply Side Summary - Supply constraints are a core support for the industrial metals sector, with global copper supply disruptions becoming a norm. An incident at Indonesia's second-largest copper mine in September is expected to reduce its 2026 output by approximately 35%, with recovery not anticipated until 2027 [1]. - Reduced capital expenditure in the mining sector due to declining global economic growth may lead to production cuts in the coming years, emphasizing the importance of supply constraints [1]. - Geopolitical factors, such as new rare earth export control policies from the Ministry of Commerce, are also impacting global supply [1]. Demand Side Summary - Traditional metals like copper and aluminum are closely linked to manufacturing and real estate, with recent price fluctuations influenced by pessimistic demand expectations. However, new industries such as AI are expanding downstream demand for non-ferrous metals [2]. - Upgrades in traditional power demand and the growth of new energy sectors, including electric vehicles and batteries, are expected to drive future demand for non-ferrous metals [2]. - The overall supply-demand balance for non-ferrous metals is currently tight, providing support for industry growth [2]. Financial Environment Summary - The Federal Reserve has initiated a rate-cutting cycle, with a 25 basis point cut in September, leading to expectations of further cuts. This environment reduces the risk-free return on dollar assets, potentially shifting market liquidity towards physical assets [2]. - A weaker dollar, resulting from Fed rate cuts, could benefit commodities priced in dollars, including copper and other major metals, while also favoring precious metals like gold [2]. Investment Perspective Summary - The long-term price recovery of non-ferrous metals is supported by the aforementioned factors, despite potential short-term volatility [3]. - Investors are encouraged to consider index-based tools for overall exposure, such as mining ETFs (561330) that cover key commodities like copper, gold, and rare earths, or focus on specific products like gold ETFs (518800) and gold stock ETFs (517400) [3]. - The growth of emerging industries and the tight supply-demand balance are expected to sustain sector attractiveness, with opportunities for strategic accumulation during short-term adjustments [3].

Core Viewpoint - The recent interest rate cuts by the Federal Reserve have opened up more room for China's monetary policy, potentially aiding the struggling real estate market in China [1][3]. Monetary Policy Impact - The Federal Reserve's fifth rate cut since September 2024 has reduced the federal funds rate to a range of 3.75% to 4.00%, alleviating the long-standing pressure of interest rate differentials between China and the U.S. [1] - Analysts suggest that a follow-up adjustment in domestic policy is likely on November 20, with expectations of a 10 to 15 basis point reduction in the 5-year LPR over the next 3 to 6 months [3]. Financing Environment for Real Estate - The decline in dollar bond costs provides a respite for quality real estate companies, allowing firms like Baolong Real Estate to save approximately $500,000 annually if their existing dollar bond rates decrease by 0.5 percentage points [3]. - Despite improvements for leading firms, the overall financing difficulties for the majority of industry players remain unresolved [3]. Housing Loan Rates and Consumer Impact - A 0.25 percentage point decrease in housing loan rates can reduce monthly payments by about 140 yuan and save over 50,000 yuan in total interest over 30 years for a 1 million yuan loan [6]. - Some cities have seen housing loan rates drop to around 3%, with potential for first-time home loan rates to reach the "2" range, although lower rates alone may not stimulate demand [6]. Market Dynamics and Trends - The real estate market is undergoing a transformation, shifting from an oversupply to a structural imbalance, with a focus on quality over quantity [9]. - Sales in first and second-tier cities have improved, with a 15.5 percentage point reduction in the year-on-year decline of national housing sales area compared to the same period in 2024 [9]. - The influx of foreign capital is selective, favoring core assets in first-tier and strong second-tier cities, while the impact on most regions remains minimal [8][10]. Developer Landscape - The top 100 developers account for over 70% of sales, indicating a rising concentration in the industry, while many small to medium-sized developers face bankruptcy or acquisition risks [12]. - Demand for improved housing products is strong, while entry-level products are under pressure to reduce inventory [12]. Historical Context and Future Outlook - Historical data shows that during previous Fed rate cut cycles, new home sales in major cities like Shenzhen increased significantly, suggesting potential for similar trends if the market anticipates continued rate declines [13]. - However, concerns about job stability and income growth continue to suppress home buying intentions, with a shift towards second-hand home transactions reflecting changes in demand structure [16].
