Report Industry Investment Ratings - SDIC Futures gives a ☆☆☆ rating to rebar, hot-rolled coil, iron ore, silicon manganese, and silicon iron, indicating a relatively balanced short-term trend with poor operability on the current market, suggesting a wait-and-see approach [1]. - It assigns a ★☆☆ rating to coke and coking coal, indicating a bullish or bearish bias, with a driving force for price increase or decrease, but poor operability on the market [1]. Core Views - The demand expectation for steel remains weak, and the market stabilizes slightly after continuous adjustments but may still fluctuate in the short term. It is necessary to pay attention to the progress of China-US game and the promotion of domestic demand stimulus policies [2]. - Iron ore is expected to fluctuate at a high level, and it is necessary to focus on the progress of China-US trade negotiations and the upcoming important meetings [3]. - The support near the previous low of coke and coking coal is relatively solid, and attention should be paid to the impact of US tariff increases [4][6]. - Silicon manganese and silicon iron prices are mainly oscillating, and attention should be paid to the impact of external trade frictions [7][8]. Summary by Related Catalogs Steel - Today's steel futures market rebounded slightly in a volatile manner. This week, the apparent demand for rebar increased significantly month-on-month but remained weak year-on-year. Production continued to decline, and inventory decreased. The demand for hot-rolled coils also increased, production decreased slightly, and the inventory accumulation rate slowed down. Iron ore production remained high, but downstream demand was insufficient. As steel mill profits declined, the negative feedback expectation of the industrial chain continued to ferment. From the perspective of downstream industries, the manufacturing industry showed marginal stability, real estate investment declined significantly, infrastructure investment growth slowed down, and overall domestic demand remained weak. Steel exports remained high in September. The demand expectation remained weak, and the market stabilized slightly after continuous adjustments but may still fluctuate in the short term [2]. Iron Ore - Today's iron ore futures market showed a weak oscillation. On the supply side, global shipments decreased month-on-month but were stronger than the same period last year. The domestic arrival volume increased, and there was no significant pressure on port inventory accumulation. On the demand side, the apparent demand for steel increased significantly after the holiday, and iron ore production remained high with resilience. Steel mills had a certain demand for phased replenishment, but as profits shrank and demand remained relatively low, the pressure for future production cuts gradually increased. External trade frictions continued, the negative feedback expectation of the industrial chain strengthened, and market sentiment weakened. It still needs subsequent policy support. It is expected that iron ore will mainly oscillate at a high level [3]. Coke - The coke price oscillated upward during the day. The first round of price increases in the coking industry was fully implemented, and the second round was postponed. Profit levels were average, daily production decreased slightly, and inventory decreased slightly. After pre-holiday replenishment, downstream users are currently consuming inventory, and traders' purchasing willingness is average. Overall, the supply of carbon elements is abundant, and the high level of downstream iron ore production supports raw materials. The support near the previous low is relatively solid. The coke futures market is slightly at a premium, and the market has certain expectations for the safety production assessment in the main coking coal production areas [4]. Coking Coal - The coking coal price oscillated upward during the day. The production of coking coal mines continued to increase slightly, the spot auction volume decreased slightly, and the transaction price remained stable. Terminal inventory decreased. The total coking coal inventory decreased significantly month-on-month, and production-end inventory decreased slightly. Overall, the supply of carbon elements is abundant, and the high level of downstream iron ore production supports raw materials. The support near the previous low is relatively solid. The coking coal futures market is slightly at a discount to Mongolian coal, and the market has certain expectations for the safety production assessment in the main coking coal production areas [6]. Silicon Manganese - The silicon manganese price mainly oscillated during the day. Attention should be paid to the tender pricing news of a large steel mill in the north. Currently, the inquiry price is 5,750 yuan/ton. On the demand side, iron ore production remains high. The weekly production of silicon manganese decreased slightly, but production remained at a high level. Silicon manganese inventory decreased slightly, and both futures and spot demand remained good. The quoted price of manganese ore shipments increased slightly month-on-month, and the spot ore was boosted by the market. Manganese ore inventory decreased slightly, and the contradiction was not prominent. Attention should be paid to the impact of external trade frictions [7]. Silicon Iron - The silicon iron price mainly oscillated during the day. On the demand side, iron ore production remains high. Export demand remained at around 30,000 tons, with a marginal impact. The production of magnesium metal increased slightly month-on-month, and secondary demand increased marginally. Overall, demand was okay. Silicon iron supply remained at a high level, and on-balance sheet inventory continued to decline. Attention should be paid to the impact of external trade frictions [8].

Core Viewpoint - The article discusses the escalating trade tensions between the EU and China, particularly focusing on the EU's potential new policies requiring Chinese companies to transfer technology to local firms in exchange for investment opportunities in Europe [4][5][7]. Group 1: EU's Trade Policy Changes - The EU is considering a significant shift in its trade policy towards Chinese investments, which may include mandatory technology and intellectual property transfers [4][5]. - This move is seen as a response to protect European industries, especially the automotive sector, and aims to ensure that Chinese investments create jobs and facilitate technology sharing in Europe [4][7]. Group 2: Geopolitical Context - The discussion on technology transfer is part of a broader trend of the EU adopting a tougher stance on China, as evidenced by recent proposals to impose tariffs on steel imports and the Dutch government's takeover of a Chinese-controlled semiconductor manufacturer [8][10]. - European officials are increasingly concerned about supply chain security amid geopolitical risks, particularly in light of China's new export control regulations affecting critical materials [9][10]. Group 3: Strategic Resource Concerns - The article highlights Europe's vulnerability regarding its dependence on Chinese rare earth materials, with countries like Germany and Turkey relying on China for 91% and 93% of their imports, respectively [10][11]. - The inclusion of lithium battery materials and production equipment in China's export controls signifies the strategic importance of the lithium battery industry, elevating it to a level comparable to that of rare earths [11]. Group 4: Global Market Implications - The ongoing trade tensions are creating uncertainty in global markets, with potential implications for supply chain restructuring and investor sentiment [12][13]. - The upcoming APEC summit may provide insights into whether these trade frictions are merely short-term negotiation tactics or indicative of a longer-term structural shift in global trade dynamics [12][13].

Group 1 - Shipping stocks are experiencing active performance, with notable increases in share prices for companies such as COSCO Shipping Energy (up 3.21% to HKD 9.65), Orient Overseas International (up 3% to HKD 126.9), COSCO Shipping Holdings (up 2.97% to HKD 12.82), and Yang Ming Marine Transport (up 1.7% to HKD 8.39) [1] - The U.S. 301 port fee measures will be implemented on October 14, prompting China to announce special port fees for U.S. vessels starting the same day. This reciprocal action is expected to create short-term price fluctuations in shipping rates due to initial implementation chaos [1][2] - Concerns over port congestion and supply chain efficiency have intensified following new U.S. sanctions and China's announcement of special port fees, leading to a significant increase in VLCC shipping rates last week. The combination of these factors and the seasonal peak is expected to result in strong performance for oil shipping rates in the short to medium term [1] Group 2 - The reciprocal port fee measures between China and the U.S. are anticipated to increase costs for shipping companies, potentially disrupting established trading rhythms and causing short-term chaos. This environment may empower shipping companies to pass on costs and exert greater pricing power, supporting short-term rate increases [2] - In the medium to long term, shipping companies may adjust capacity across global routes to mitigate the impact of port fees. However, given China's critical role in global dry bulk, energy transport, and manufacturing exports, the ultimate effects of these measures will require further observation [2] - Investment opportunities in shipping stocks related to U.S.-China trade tensions are suggested, with oil and dry bulk shipping rates likely to benefit from the short-term risk premium associated with the current chaos [2]

螺纹钢 去库存压力大 (2025 年 10 月 16 日) 媒体发文 投资咨询业务资格:证监许可【2011】1778 号 在 9 月中旬短暂反弹之后,螺纹钢期货价格再度转弱下行,国庆假期前主力合约更是跌破 3100 元/吨整数关口,创下阶段性新低。同时,现货价格也在低位偏弱运行。 宏观情绪偏弱 美东时间 10 月 10 日,美方宣布,针对中方采取的稀土等相关物项出口管制,将对中方加征 100%关税,并对所有关键软件实施出口管制。上述举措引发市场避险交易,风险资产价格承压回 落。在经历了 4 月的"对等关税"冲击后,新一轮关税威胁对商品市场的边际影响减弱。事实上,新一 轮关税威胁对黑色产业的影响有限,国内钢材直接出口至美国的数量较少。不过,若贸易摩擦升 级,可能对我国钢材的间接出口形成冲击,例如汽车、家电等产品出口受限后会加剧板材产业的供 需矛盾,进而导致建筑钢材价格承压。笔者认为,若贸易摩擦升级,国内将出台更多利好政策,对 黑色金属价格形成显著支撑,市场情绪将再度切换。 与钢价弱势下行不同,原料价格表现相对偏强。根据钢联数据,截至 10 月 10 日当周,247 家 样本钢厂中盈利钢厂占比为 56.28%,已 ...
