9月30日，国内期市能化板块跌幅居前。其中，纯碱期货主力合约大幅收跌2.26%，报1255.00元/吨。 现货方面，据中财期货介绍，华南地区轻质纯碱均价为1350元/吨，重质纯碱均价为1400元/吨；东北地 区轻质纯碱均价为1350元/吨，重质纯碱均价为1400元/吨，沙河地区重质纯碱均价为1203元/吨。 展望后市，光大期货表示，在新投产能压力下纯碱宽松程度将进一步扩大，但当前基本面对市场影响程 度较弱。后续宏观刺激政策、反内卷及环保等外部题材将和纯碱羸弱的基本面持续博弈，故纯碱期价 上、下方空间都将受限，整体走势弱于玻璃。 基本面来看，建信期货指出，供应高位运行，但库存持续去化，整体偏弱格局未改。纯碱周产由降转升 至77.69，涨至今年以来最高点，环比增长4.19%。纯碱装置运行稳定，无检修消息，后期产量预计进一 步增加。 需求端，瑞达期货（002961）分析称，玻璃产线冷修数量不变，整体产量不变，依旧底部徘徊，刚需生 产迹象明显，利润回升，主要来自于现货价格上行，预计下周产量继续底部。光伏玻璃走平，对整体纯 碱需求依旧不变，伴随反内卷进程，后续光伏玻璃减产加速，需求有望减弱。 ...

近期市场波动较大，当前临近长假，在较大不确定性情况下，市场关注如何应对跨 节。 从季节性来看，国庆前后长债并不存在明显的季节性，而资金在节后则往往会季 节性宽松。从过去 4 年经验来看，国庆节后利率上升压力不大，国庆后首周 10 年 国债平均下行在 0.9bp，而整个 10 月相对于 9 月底，利率平均下行 0.2bp，其中 2022 年和 2024 年长债利率在 10 月均有所回落。而从资金状况来看，节后资金首 周或有季节性回落，往年经验来看，10 月资金也未有明显收紧。结合当前融资需 求不足，且央行对流动性保持呵护的情况，整体资金预计将继续保持宽松，R007 有望继续保持 1.4%-1.5%附近运行。 虽然说往年季节性如此，但每一年都有自己的特殊情况，因而也不好完全照搬。 从目前情况来看，宽松的资金面和偏弱的基本面依然是债市中期的安全保障。近 几个月融资需求偏弱，信贷保持同比少增，并且社融增速放缓。结合后续相对有限 的资产统计，即使考虑到 4 季度可能提前发行再融资债，如果假定提前增发 1 万 亿，那么政府债券供给也较去年少 0.7 万亿左右，因而预计资金将保持持续宽松， 资产荒有望加剧。同时，近期基本面 ...

Summary of Key Points from Conference Call Records Industry Overview - The financial data for August 2025 indicates a year-on-year growth rate of social financing at 8.8%, with a continuous decline in loan growth. The cumulative new loans from January to August decreased by approximately 1 trillion yuan compared to the previous year, with significant reductions in household credit [1][4] - The upstream resource and real estate chain industries continue to decline, while the consumer and infrastructure sectors show positive signals. The midstream manufacturing and TMT (Technology, Media, and Telecommunications) sectors perform strongly, and the financial industry releases favorable signals [2][11] Core Insights and Arguments - The central bank's monetary policy remains multi-targeted, requiring a balance between internal and external factors. It is crucial to monitor the impact of fiscal policy on social financing and maintain a moderately loose monetary policy to support reasonable growth in money supply [6][7] - The A-share market has experienced a rebound after a period of volatility, particularly in the technology growth sector. The market is expected to focus on performance and policy in September and October, with the upcoming 20th Central Committee's Fourth Plenary Session influencing market expectations [8][9] - In the first half of 2025, the overall revenue growth rate of A-shares turned positive, with a year-on-year increase of 0.03%. However, the revenue growth rate of non-financial sectors declined, while the net profit growth rate remained positive at 2.44% [9][10] Important but Potentially Overlooked Content - The phenomenon of "residential deposit migration" began to show signs from July, with household deposits declining for two consecutive months and the growth rate falling below M2. This trend indicates a shift of funds towards non-bank sectors, such as stocks and other equity assets [5][11] - The financial sector shows signs of recovery, with banks, securities, and insurance industries reporting positive net profit growth. The TMT sector continues to exhibit high levels of prosperity, particularly in the semiconductor and consumer electronics segments [16] - The infrastructure sector displays a mixed performance, with certain sub-sectors like airports experiencing high growth, while logistics shows signs of recovery due to policy changes [17] - Future investment opportunities should be analyzed based on growth potential (net profit growth), stability (ROE), and valuation matching. Key sectors to watch include precious metals, cement, and TMT, particularly in gaming software development [18][19]

Report Summary 1. Report Industry Investment Ratings No specific industry investment ratings are provided in the report. 2.

Report Industry Investment Ratings No relevant content provided. Core Views Copper - Macroscopically, a September interest rate cut is likely, but its impact on copper prices depends on the reason and background. The "stagflation-like" environment in the US restricts the scope of rate cuts. In the short term, rate cuts boost copper's financial attributes, raising the bottom price, but the upside is limited. - Fundamentally, it presents a state of "weak reality + stable expectations." The demand may weaken marginally in the second half of the year, but the supply - demand deterioration is limited. With the arrival of the peak season, demand is expected to improve marginally, and the terminal demand is resilient. Copper prices are expected to at least remain volatile, and a new upward cycle requires the resonance of commodity and financial attributes. The reference range for the main contract is 79,500 - 81,500 yuan/ton [1]. Aluminum - For alumina, the market shows a pattern of "high supply, high inventory, and weak demand." The short - term import of bauxite is tight, but new production capacity is continuously being put into operation. The demand for alumina from electrolytic aluminum is limited. The price is expected to fluctuate between 2,900 - 3,200 yuan/ton in the short term. - For aluminum, macro factors support the price, and the fundamentals are improving marginally. However, the price increase is restricted by the 20,900 - 21,000 yuan/ton pressure range. It is expected to fluctuate around the actual fulfillment of peak - season demand, with the main contract reference range of 20,600 - 21,200 yuan/ton [3]. Aluminum Alloy - Macroscopically, the expectation of Fed rate cuts boosts the sentiment of commodities. The cost support is strong due to the tight supply of scrap aluminum. The supply is affected by tax policy adjustments, and the demand has slightly recovered but needs verification. The price of ADC12 is expected to remain high and volatile in the short term, with the main contract reference range of 20,200 - 20,800 yuan/ton [4]. Zinc - The improvement of rate - cut expectations boosts zinc prices. The supply side is expected to be loose, and the demand side is about to enter the peak season. The low global inventory supports the price. In the short term, the price may be driven by macro factors, but the upside is limited, and it is expected to mainly fluctuate, with the main contract reference range of 21,500 - 23,000 yuan/ton [7]. Tin - The supply of tin ore remains tight, and the demand shows no obvious improvement. The spot market transactions are differentiated. The tin price is expected to remain high and volatile. If the supply recovers smoothly, a short - selling strategy can be considered; otherwise, it will continue to fluctuate at a high level, with the reference range of 265,000 - 285,000 yuan/ton [9]. Nickel - Macroscopically, the market's expectation of the rate - cut rhythm remains unchanged. Industrially, the spot trading of refined nickel is average, and the price of nickel ore is firm. The profit of stainless steel is in deficit, and the demand is weak.
