1. Report Industry Investment Ratings No information about industry investment ratings is provided in the reports. 2. Core Views of the Reports Tin - Short - term: Due to the tense situation between the US and Iran, market sentiment fluctuates greatly, causing wide - range fluctuations in tin prices. It is recommended to wait and see, focusing on the recovery of downstream demand and overseas macro - drivers. - Medium - to long - term: The bullish logic for tin prices still exists. After sentiment stabilizes, investors can enter the market at an appropriate time [1][2]. Aluminum - Short - term: The macro situation is the key variable this week. It is recommended to trade cautiously to prevent short - term price retracements caused by profit - taking. The expected range for the Shanghai Aluminum main contract is 24,000 - 26,000 yuan/ton. - Medium - to long - term: The global supply - demand balance pattern will be maintained, and the long - term bullish logic for aluminum prices remains unchanged [5]. Nickel - The recent overseas macro uncertainty increases. The raw material end has strong support, but weak demand and high inventory are the main constraints. The bottom support is strong, but the upward driving force is limited. It is expected that the nickel price will maintain range - bound fluctuations, with the main contract reference range of 134,000 - 140,000 yuan/ton [6]. Stainless Steel - Overseas macro risks have increased uncertainty, and domestic policy expectations from the meeting window have a certain boosting effect. The supply - demand fundamentals are slowly recovering, and costs and demand are in a continuous game. In the short term, it is expected to be mainly in a state of shock adjustment, with the main contract reference range of 14,000 - 14,500 yuan/ton [7]. Lithium Carbonate - Geopolitical conflicts increase market uncertainty and magnify macro risks. The lithium carbonate price is over - valued, and funds are flowing more towards the oil - chemical and precious metal sectors. The single - sided driving force for new energy is weak. In the short term, it is expected to have wide - range shock adjustments, with the main contract reference range of 150,000 - 160,000 yuan/ton. It is recommended to wait and see for now and pay attention to policy guidance during the meeting period [9]. Aluminum Alloy - In the short term, the market will continue to fluctuate within a range in a situation of weak supply and demand, with the main contract reference range of 22,500 - 24,500 yuan/ton. The key turning point after the festival lies in the matching degree between the downstream resumption of work and order recovery and the supply increase speed, as well as the improvement of scrap aluminum circulation. If there is a phased increase in terminal orders, the ADC12 price still has room to rise [10]. Copper - Short - term: The copper price is expected to maintain a high level in March, with a phased mismatch between supply and demand, continuous inventory accumulation, and limited upward driving force for prices. - Medium - to long - term: The copper fundamentals are still good. The supply side is constrained by capital expenditure, and the AI expectation brings incremental demand for power grid upgrading and transformation. The copper price is still optimistic in the long run. It is recommended to pay attention to the downstream resumption of work rhythm and overseas macro - drivers. Short - term adjustments may provide opportunities for long - term long positions, with the main contract focusing on the support around 100,000 yuan/ton [11]. Zinc - The zinc fundamentals are generally good. If the downstream resumption of work in the peak season fails to meet expectations, the domestic inventory pressure may suppress the zinc price performance in the short term. It is necessary to pay attention to the marginal changes in zinc ore TC and demand, with the main contract focusing on the support around 23,800 yuan/ton [13]. Industrial Silicon - In March, both supply and demand are expected to be strong. It is necessary to pay attention to the recovery of production and sales after the Lantern Festival. Although there is new production capacity to be put into operation, the demand - side capacity release is greater than the supply - side. The organic silicon industry is expected to achieve positive supply - demand repair. The futures price has support at the cost level. It is necessary to pay attention to the impact of the Middle East geopolitical conflict on export demand. It is recommended to hold long positions around 8,200 yuan/ton with caution and pay attention to position reduction or liquidation [15]. Polysilicon - Although the current supply pressure is large, the demand is expected to recover in March. However, the annual demand remains weak. If there is no further regulation on the supply side, attention should be paid to the price decline pressure. It is recommended to wait and see for now. If you want to participate, you can try long positions after the price stabilizes, but pay attention to position control and stop - loss setting [16]. 3.
