Report Industry Investment Rating - Unilateral: Cautiously bullish. Arbitrage: Neutral [4] Core View - The opening of the export window weakens the short - allocation value of SHFE zinc. Although the domestic supply pressure remains, the export window opening and the change in domestic TC make the short - allocation logic change marginally. The SHFE zinc price will be more sensitive to overseas macro - positive factors, and the linkage between domestic and overseas markets will strengthen. With the LME inventory below 38,000 tons and the overseas premium rising, there is still a warrant risk. Despite short - term fluctuations caused by the tariff trade war, the long - term interest rate cut expectation remains unchanged, and there is no need to be overly pessimistic about the tariff impact [3] Summary by Related Catalogs Important Data - On October 10, 2025, the SHFE zinc main contract closed at 22,270 yuan/ton, with a fluctuation of 0.32%, and the LME price closed at $2,984.5/ton, with a fluctuation of - 0.01%. The spot prices in East China, Guangdong, and Tianjin were 22,300 yuan/ton, 22,320 yuan/ton, and 22,310 yuan/ton respectively, with different changes in the premium/discount to the main contract compared to the previous period. The LME (0 - 3) premium was $66.80/ton, with a weekly change of + $7.69/ton [1] - The weekly processing fee for domestic zinc concentrates by SMM was 3,500 yuan/metal ton, with a weekly change of - 150 yuan/ton, and the weekly processing fee index for imported zinc concentrates was $118.50/dry ton, with a weekly change of $2.60/dry ton. The import profit and loss of zinc concentrates was - 2,379.03 yuan/ton [1] - The operating rates of galvanizing, die - casting zinc alloy, and zinc oxide enterprises were 46.83% (a change of - 1.83% compared to last week), 46.51% (a change of - 0.35% compared to last week), and 56.08% (a change of - 1.24% compared to last week) respectively [1] Inventory - As of October 9, 2025, the total inventory of zinc ingots in SMM's seven major regions was 150,200 tons, an increase of 8,800 tons compared to the previous week. The warrant inventory was 60,644 tons, and the LME zinc inventory was 37,950 tons [2] Profit - As of October 10, 2025, the production profit of smelting enterprises (excluding by - product income) was about - 436 yuan/ton. The sulfuric acid price in Inner Mongolia was 735 yuan/ton, with no change compared to the previous week. After adding by - product income, the profit was about 1,100 yuan/ton [2] Market Analysis - Domestic smelters have low enthusiasm for purchasing domestic zinc ores. The domestic TC and imported TC continue to diverge, and the domestic TC declines. Although the domestic supply has not changed significantly, the opening of the export window changes the short - allocation logic marginally. The LME inventory is below 38,000 tons, and the overseas premium is rising, with a warrant risk. The tariff trade war causes short - term fluctuations, but the long - term interest rate cut expectation remains unchanged, and there is no need to be overly pessimistic about the tariff impact [3] Strategy - Unilateral: Cautiously bullish. Arbitrage: Neutral [4]

Report Industry Investment Rating - Gold: Cautiously bullish [3] - Silver: Cautiously bullish [3] - Arbitrage: Short the gold-silver ratio at high levels [4] - Options: Put on hold [4] Core View of the Report - The resurgence of tariff risks and the continuation of easing expectations have jointly pushed the gold price to continuously hit new historical highs. The U.S. federal government shutdown, although causing the delay of important economic data releases, is itself regarded as an obvious manifestation of fiscal risks, prompting the market to seek safe-haven assets and boosting the gold price. The uncertainty of the Fed's interest rate cut path remains high, but the market still expects a rate cut in October, which also supports the gold price. The silver price is currently strong, hitting a new historical high. There is a need to repair the gold-silver price ratio. However, due to the relatively large volatility of silver, more attention should be paid to position control and strict stop-loss execution when operating [3]. Summary According to Relevant Catalogs Market News and Important Data Macroeconomic Aspects - In the week of October 10, 2025, gold and silver continued their strong performance. U.S. President Trump announced that starting from November 1, a new 100% tariff would be imposed on Chinese imports, an additional part on top of the existing paid tariffs. The U.S. will also implement export controls on "all key software" on the same day, significantly increasing tariff risks. The bill proposed by the U.S. Republicans to end the government shutdown failed to obtain enough votes in the Senate, and the overall U.S. fiscal risk remains prominent. The minutes of the September FOMC meeting showed that there were increasing differences within the Fed regarding the future interest rate cut path. Although most officials supported further rate cuts this year, 7 officials believed that no further cuts were needed, and only Fed Governor Milan supported a larger 50-basis-point cut. The market has strengthened the pricing of a rate cut in October, with the Fedwatch showing a 98.3% probability of a 25-basis-point cut in October [1]. Fundamental Aspects - In the week of October 10, 2025, the Shanghai Futures Exchange's gold warehouse receipts remained unchanged at 70,728 kilograms from the previous week, while silver warehouse receipts decreased by 23,221 kilograms to 1,169,061 kilograms. In the Comex inventory, this week's Comex gold inventory decreased by 170,212.58 ounces to 39,940,669.57 ounces, and Comex silver inventory decreased by 9,409,653.79 ounces to 522,463,797.41 ounces. In the precious metal ETFs, in the week of October 10 (currently the latest), the gold SPDR ETF holdings increased by 2.28 tons to 1,017.16 tons, and the silver SLV ETF holdings increased by 274.06 tons to 15,444 tons. As of September 23, 2025, in terms of CFTC positions, the net long speculative positions in gold increased by 0.13% to 266,749 contracts, and the net long positions in silver increased by 1.43% to 52,276 contracts. In the week of October 10, 2025, the CSI 300 Index fell by 0.51% from the previous week, the electronic components sector index related to precious metals fell by 2.49%, and the photovoltaic sector fell by 0.05%. As of September 29, 2025 (the latest), the photovoltaic price index was reported at 15.74, up 0.01 from the previous period. As of September 15, 2025, the photovoltaic manager index was reported at 119.66, a month-on-month decrease of 5.43 [2]. Strategy - Gold: Cautiously bullish. The resurgence of tariff risks and the continuation of easing expectations jointly push the gold price to continuously hit new historical highs. The U.S. federal government shutdown, although causing the delay of important economic data releases, is itself regarded as an obvious manifestation of fiscal risks, prompting the market to seek safe-haven assets and boosting the gold price. The uncertainty of the Fed's interest rate cut path remains high, but the market still expects a rate cut in October, which also supports the gold price [3]. - Silver: Cautiously bullish. The silver price is currently strong, hitting a new historical high. There is a need to repair the gold-silver price ratio. However, due to the relatively large volatility of silver, more attention should be paid to position control and strict stop-loss execution when operating [3]. - Arbitrage: Short the gold-silver ratio at high levels [4]. - Options: Put on hold [4].

联邦基金期货目前显示，10月降息25个基点的概率为95%；12月再次降息的概率回落至80%。本周早些 时候公布的联邦公开市场委员会（FOMC）会议纪要显示，委员们普遍支持降息，但对降息节奏尚未达 成明确共识——政府停摆导致通胀数据不完整，是节奏不明确的原因之一。 今日周六，外汇市场休市。周五（10月10日）美元指数突破100关口遇阻回落，最终收报98.83，跌幅 0.58%，尽管美联储内部存在部分反对声音，但美联储官员的表态强化了降息可能性，美元指数由此从 周四的两个月高点回落至99.33。 美联储理事克里斯托弗·沃勒（Christopher Waller）周五表示，美联储应保持"谨慎"，但同时确认支持宽 松政策。 当前美国国债收益率走软、地缘政治风险重新显现、海外政治不确定性进一步施压，多重因素叠加下， 美元指数（DXY）或难以顺利突破100关口。该关口的阻力位仍未被突破，且在缺乏新经济数据或美联 储转向鹰派的情况下，美元走势短期上行空间受限。 ...

Group 1 - The U.S. stock market is experiencing a comprehensive adjustment, with all four major indices declining, indicating simultaneous pressure on both safe-haven and risk assets [1] - International gold prices have fallen below $4000 per ounce, while the U.S. dollar index has rebounded, and U.S. Treasury yields have risen, suggesting a subtle cooling of the market's expectations for interest rate cuts by the Federal Reserve [1] - The current government shutdown in the U.S. has led to a lack of key economic data, shifting market attention towards the earnings season [1] Group 2 - Despite strong earnings reports from Micron and TSMC, their stock prices did not respond as positively as expected, indicating a decreased sensitivity to positive earnings news in the market [1] - The market may require a "super surprise," such as significant investment announcements, to effectively boost market sentiment [1] - The technology sector's current momentum heavily relies on the internal circulation of the AI industry chain, where inter-company investments create a seemingly collaborative effect, but this could lead to systemic risks if any part of the chain falters [1] Group 3 - The S&P 500 index recently reached a new high, but has been oscillating within a narrow range of 6700-6750 points for over six trading days, reflecting a divergence between the index's strength and declining trading volume [2] - This situation indicates increasing divergence between bullish and bearish sentiments in the market, suggesting that a clearer catalyst is needed for future directional choices [2]

Group 1 - The current gold-oil price ratio is at its second-highest level in history, only behind the negative pricing phase during the 2020 pandemic, indicating significant divergence in pricing factors [1][2] - Oil pricing is fundamentally driven, while gold pricing is influenced by macroeconomic factors [2][4] Group 2 - Over the past decade, oil prices have closely followed the fundamentals, particularly OECD crude oil inventories, which are currently at a moderately low level [3] - Despite the low inventory levels, oil prices have started to decline due to market expectations of a continued loose fundamental environment for crude oil through 2026, leading to increased inventory accumulation [3] Group 3 - Gold prices have shown a nearly negative correlation with the US 10-year Treasury yield over the past decade, as gold is a non-yielding asset whose attractiveness is linked to real interest rates [4] - The anticipated interest rate cuts in the US starting September 2025, with a 25 basis point reduction, are expected to enhance gold's appeal as market expectations shift towards a rate-cutting cycle [4] Group 4 - The demand for gold from emerging market central banks has increased significantly since the onset of the Russia-Ukraine conflict, contributing to the upward pressure on gold prices [4]

Core Viewpoint - Strong buying interest in US Treasury futures has emerged, leading to a decline in US Treasury yields, with a significant flattening of the yield curve [1] Group 1: Market Reaction - US Treasury yields fell to intraday lows, decreasing by 4.5 to 7 basis points across the board [1] - The short end of the yield curve has priced in more easing expectations, indicating a shift in market sentiment [1] Group 2: Federal Reserve Expectations - The overnight index swap (OIS) linked to Federal Reserve meetings suggests an anticipated total rate cut of 46 basis points over the remaining two meetings this year, up from 44 basis points at Thursday's close [1]

Investment Rating - Industry Rating: Outperform the Market (maintained rating) [4] Core Viewpoints - The current gold-oil price ratio is at a historically high level, second only to the negative pricing phase during the pandemic in 2020. The pricing factors differ, with crude oil being fundamentally priced and gold being macroeconomically priced [10][12]. - Oil prices have closely followed the fundamentals, slightly leading the US 10-year Treasury yield. Currently, OECD crude oil inventories are at a moderately low level, but oil prices have started to decline due to market expectations of a continued loose supply in 2026, which may exacerbate inventory accumulation [2][12]. - Gold prices are primarily driven by macroeconomic factors. Over the past decade, gold prices have shown a nearly negative correlation with the US 10-year Treasury yield. As real interest rates decline, the attractiveness of gold increases. The market anticipates a 25 basis point rate cut starting in September 2025, with expectations of a decline in the US 10-year Treasury yield [3][17]. - The current demand for gold is also linked to central bank purchases in emerging markets, which have increased significantly since the onset of the Russia-Ukraine conflict. Emerging market central banks hold a lower proportion of gold compared to developed market central banks, making this demand a significant factor in driving gold prices [18]. Summary by Sections 1. Gold-Oil Price Ratio - The current gold-oil price ratio is at a historically high level, second only to the negative pricing phase during the pandemic in 2020 [10]. - Oil prices have closely followed the fundamentals, slightly leading the US 10-year Treasury yield, with current OECD crude oil inventories at a moderately low level [2][12]. - Market expectations of a continued loose supply in 2026 may exacerbate inventory accumulation, leading to a decline in oil prices [12][13]. 2. Pricing Mechanisms - Crude oil is fundamentally priced, while gold is macroeconomically priced [16]. - Gold prices have shown a nearly negative correlation with the US 10-year Treasury yield, with real interest rates impacting gold's attractiveness [3][17]. - The anticipated rate cut in the US and the expected decline in the US 10-year Treasury yield are significant for gold pricing [17]. 3. Central Bank Demand - Increased purchases of gold by emerging market central banks since the Russia-Ukraine conflict have contributed to rising gold prices [18].

Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant information provided. Core Viewpoints of the Report - The demand for safe - haven assets is boosted by the potential U.S. government shutdown, and the market's expectation of the Fed's interest rate cut is strengthened. The real interest rate of U.S. Treasury bonds is declining. Global central banks are continuously increasing their gold holdings, and the "de - dollarization" trend enhances the allocation value of gold. Geopolitical uncertainties and concerns about the U.S. dollar's credit further support the long - term safe - haven nature of precious metals [3]. - The upward gap of Shanghai copper yesterday was in line with expectations. Whether sentiment or expectation will be dominant in the future may affect copper price fluctuations. From a trend perspective, Shanghai copper has broken through, and in the short - term cycle, it has reached the upper range of fluctuations. Adjustment at high levels is not unexpected, and the same situation applies to LME copper [18]. - Affected by copper and gold prices and macro - policies, Shanghai aluminum is expected to fluctuate strongly in the short term. Alumina is still in an oversupply situation, and the prices of domestic and foreign spot alumina are continuously falling. Cast aluminum alloy has a strong follow - up effect on Shanghai aluminum and is also expected to fluctuate strongly in the short term [37]. - The zinc price was driven by the overall rise of the non - ferrous metal sector in the previous trading day. The LME zinc price was stronger during the holiday, and the import profit and loss has reached a low point, with the export window expected to open soon. The fundamentals of Shanghai zinc are still weak, with an obvious pattern of strong supply and weak demand [61]. - In the nickel industry chain, the quota for nickel mines in Indonesia in 2026 is expected to decrease. The purchasing intention in the new energy sector has recovered after the holiday, and the price of nickel iron is limited in its downward space due to cost pressure. The spot trading of stainless steel has improved after the holiday, and the export situation is favorable [77]. - Affected by the U.S. government shutdown during the holiday, the macro - uncertainty has increased. The expectation of interest rate cuts has become the main trading logic in the market again. Coupled with supply - side disturbances in Wa State and Indonesia, Shanghai tin is still considered to be in a strong position [91]. - The previous market expectation of the shutdown of lithium mines in Jiangxi has not been verified. Attention should be paid to the resumption progress of Xiawo lithium mine and the restocking situation of downstream sectors [107]. - For industrial silicon, as the dry season approaches, more enterprises are expected to cut production, and the price center may move slightly upward, but the overall inventory in the industry will suppress the price increase. For polysilicon, the market trading will focus on the expectations of "platform establishment in October" and "centralized cancellation of warehouse receipts in November", and investors should be cautious due to high volatility [118].

Report Industry Investment Rating - Not provided in the content Core View of the Report - The medium - to long - term trend of precious metals may be bullish, but in the short term, there is adjustment pressure, and attention should be paid to the progress of the silver squeeze event.

1. Report Industry Investment Rating - No information provided on the report industry investment rating. 2. Core View of the Report - The precious metal prices have risen strongly driven by factors such as the US government shutdown, increased political uncertainties in France and Japan, strengthened interest - rate cut expectations, and continuous central bank gold purchases. In the long - term, precious metal prices still have upward space, and long - term long positions can be held. However, in the short - term, due to large and rapid price increases, strong market sentiment, and the impact of the Gaza cease - fire agreement, gold prices may experience sharp fluctuations, so short - term investors are advised to wait and see. For silver, short - term interest rates support a strong price, but the transfer of value between London and COMEX may limit the upside space. In the medium - to - long - term, factors like potential Fed rate cuts, global geopolitical uncertainties, and continuous central bank gold purchases will likely drive up the price of gold [5]. 3.
