“中国稀土出口管制影响迅速显现,而特朗普几乎毫无还手之力”
Guan Cha Zhe Wang· 2025-04-16 06:41
【文/观察者网 齐倩】美国总统特朗普执意对华挑起关税战,中方予以坚决回击,采取了关税、稀土出 口管制等反制措施。4月15日,美国有线电视新闻网(CNN)刊文称,稀土是中国在此轮贸易战中最有 力的武器之一。如今的局面是,中国打出了这张"强有力"的牌,而特朗普"几乎毫无还手之力"。 4月2日,特朗普政府宣布对华商品征收"对等关税"。仅两天后,中方出台系列措施精准反击,除加征关 税外,对钐、钆、铽、镝、镥、钪、钇等7类中重稀土相关物项实施出口管制。 去年12月,中国曾宣布严控对美出口镓、锗、锑、超硬材料、石墨等相关两用物项。 报道称,目前,中国稀土出口管制的影响正在迅速显现。 美国稀土咨询公司JOC的创始人约翰·奥默罗德告诉CNN,自出口管制实施以来,至少有五家来自美国 和欧洲公司的稀土在中国的运输已被叫停。他说:"他们感到很意外,有很多困惑。他们现在迫切想知 道如何才能获得所需的出口许可证。" 中国稀土产量占全球供应量的60%以上,精炼供应量占比达92% CNN制图 美国稀土公司首席执行官约书亚·巴拉德表示,此次出口管制的重点是"重"稀土,而中国控制着高达98% 的稀土。他补充说,现在,企业必须获得中国政府的批准 ...

The impact of tariffs on the real economy is gradually emerging, and risk appetite is difficult to improve significantly [2][21]. - The price trends of various commodities are affected by factors such as supply - demand relationships, policies, and weather, showing different characteristics of oscillation, strength, or weakness. 3. Summary by Relevant Catalogs 3.1 Financial News and Reviews 3.1.1 Macro Strategy (Gold) - Tariff issues continue to disrupt the market. Gold oscillated and closed higher, showing strength. The market is concerned about future Sino - US negotiation space. The actual trade has been affected, and economic downward pressure is increasing. Market sentiment is bullish, but attention should be paid to increased volatility [12]. - Investment advice: Short - term market volatility increases, so pay attention to risks [12]. 3.1.2 Macro Strategy (Treasury Bond Futures) - The central bank conducted 164.5 billion yuan of 7 - day reverse repurchase operations. The market is in high - level oscillation, lacking unilateral investment opportunities. Attention can be paid to the positive arbitrage opportunities of short - term varieties [13]. - Investment advice: Pay attention to the positive arbitrage opportunities of short - term varieties [14]. 3.1.3 Macro Strategy (Foreign Exchange Futures - US Dollar Index) - Multiple events such as the US considering tax increases on the rich, investigating key minerals, and the slow progress of US - EU trade negotiations have occurred. The difficulty of trade negotiations persists, and the market should have a long - term expectation for tariff negotiations [15][18]. - Investment advice: The US dollar index will rebound in the short term [19]. 3.1.4 Macro Strategy (US Stock Index Futures) - New York state's manufacturing has contracted for two consecutive months, and Canada will conditionally exempt some counter - measures against US - imported cars. The EU expects US tariffs to remain unchanged. The impact of tariffs on the real economy is emerging, and the stock index is expected to oscillate weakly [20][21]. - Investment advice: Although US stocks have temporarily stabilized, they have not completely reversed their weak performance [21]. 3.2 Commodity News and Reviews 3.2.1 Agricultural Products (Soybean Meal) - The NOPA's March soybean crushing volume was lower than expected, and ANEC raised Brazil's April soybean export forecast. Domestic soybean import costs have decreased. The spot market has mixed price changes, and the basis contract is the main form of trading [22][24]. - Investment advice: The futures price is expected to oscillate. Pay attention to Brazil's export quotes, US soybean growing area weather, and Sino - US relations. The spot and basis of soybean meal will be under pressure [24]. 3.2.2 Agricultural Products (Soybean Oil/Rapeseed Oil/Palm Oil) - The export tariff of Malaysian crude palm oil in May remains at 10%, and the reference price is lowered. The export of Malaysian palm oil from April 1 - 15 increased. The oil market oscillated. Rapeseed oil was affected by rumors, palm oil was supported by exports, and soybean oil was affected by the expectation of high soybean arrivals [25][26]. - Investment advice: It is advisable to long - allocate distant - month soybean oil. The price of palm oil will be weak until its cost - performance is fully restored [27]. 3.2.3 Agricultural Products (Sugar) - Guangxi issued a drought risk warning for sugarcane. Brazil's sugar exports in the first two weeks of April decreased year - on - year. The sugar mill's high - price sales support the futures market, but it is in the off - season, and the downstream acceptance of high prices is low. The international market may be under pressure, and the import volume is expected to increase [30][33]. - Investment advice: Zhengzhou sugar is expected to oscillate weakly in Q2 2025, and attention should be paid to the origin weather and Brazil's crushing production [33]. 3.2.4 Agricultural Products (Corn Starch) - Starch enterprises' losses remain unchanged. The raw material cost is high, and the downstream demand is weak. The futures price difference is affected by complex factors, and the loss may lead to a reduction in production. The substitution of wheat may affect the regional price difference [34][35]. - Investment advice: The futures price difference of corn starch has complex influencing factors and is expected to have small fluctuations [36]. 3.2.5 Agricultural Products (Corn) - The spot price of corn is stable. The import of grains is decreasing, and the inventory reduction in Northeast China is accelerating. The drought in North China wheat may affect the market [37]. - Investment advice: Before the May delivery, pay attention to inventory reduction in Northeast China and North China wheat production. Otherwise, the second - round upward repair of old - crop corn may be driven by the tightening of inventory after the May delivery [37]. 3.2.6 Black Metals (Rebar/Hot - Rolled Coil) - In early April, the daily output of key steel enterprises' crude steel increased, and the inventory increased. The steel price oscillated, and the market driver is not obvious.

It is advisable to conduct band operations unilaterally and remain on the sidelines for arbitrage [44]. 3.2.8 Non - ferrous Metals (Polysilicon) - The polysilicon production plan is expected to increase, but the high inventory and weak demand may put pressure on the spot price. The number of registered warehouse receipts is limited [46]. - Investment advice: Pay attention to the opportunities of going long on PS2506 at low prices and shorting PS2511 at high prices unilaterally.

Pay attention to shorting opportunities after the price rebounds [49]. 3.2.10 Non - ferrous Metals (Lithium Carbonate) - The discovery of high - grade tin - tantalum mineralization in a project may affect the market sentiment. The short - term supply reduction may help the price stabilize, but the long - term external demand is uncertain due to the tariff war [50][51]. - Investment advice: Short - term lithium prices may stabilize, and short positions can consider taking profits. In the medium - long term, pay attention to shorting opportunities on rebounds [51]. 3.2.11 Non - ferrous Metals (Nickel) - The LME will add two nickel delivery warehouses in Hong Kong. The macro - market and supply - demand factors affect nickel prices. The current nickel price may be oversold, and there are opportunities for upward repair [52][53]. - Investment advice: Pay attention to long - buying opportunities at low prices, manage positions well, and find short - matching varieties to hedge risks [53]. 3.2.12 Non - ferrous Metals (Lead) - The lead price oscillated, following macro - news.

Hold previous long positions and wait for buying opportunities on pullbacks. Hold the internal - external reverse arbitrage [55]. 3.2.13 Non - ferrous Metals (Zinc) - The LME approved four LME - approved warehousing facilities in Hong Kong.

The terminal demand is affected by tariffs, and the supply - side inventory decreased due to maintenance. In the short term, it may rebound slightly, but in the long term, it is bearish [62][63]. - Investment advice: The rebound height of the PTA industry chain is limited, and it is bearish in the medium - long term [64]. 3.2.16 Energy Chemicals (Urea) - The urea market prices in Shandong and Henan decreased slightly. The supply is stable, and the demand is for rigid needs.

Pay attention to the demand in traditional and new delivery areas [66]. 3.2.17 Energy Chemicals (Styrene) - The trading volume of Shandong styrene decreased.

Summary of Conference Call on Oil Market Industry Overview - The conference call focused on the oil market, discussing recent price declines and the impact of tariffs and OPEC's production decisions on global oil prices [1][2][3][4]. Key Points and Arguments 1. **Recent Price Declines**: - Domestic oil prices have dropped to around $48-$50 per barrel, while WTI prices have fallen below $60 per barrel [1]. - The decline is attributed to increased tariffs initiated by the U.S. and subsequent retaliatory measures from China, leading to concerns about a potential global economic slowdown [2][3]. 2. **Impact of Tariffs**: - The U.S. has raised tariffs on a wide range of goods, which is expected to increase domestic inflation by 1% and delay potential interest rate cuts by the Federal Reserve to Q4 of this year [2][3]. - The International Monetary Fund has revised global economic growth forecasts down to 2.3%, significantly lower than previous estimates [2]. 3. **OPEC's Production Increase**: - OPEC announced a production increase of 410,000 barrels per day for May, which is three times the expected increase, exacerbating the decline in oil prices [4][20]. - This decision is seen as a response to the ongoing trade war and the negative economic outlook [22]. 4. **China's Oil Demand**: - China's crude oil imports for January and February decreased by 5% year-over-year, influenced by stricter U.S. sanctions on Iranian and Venezuelan oil and domestic port restrictions [5][6]. - The demand for crude oil in China is expected to decline further due to the rise of electric vehicles [6]. 5. **U.S. Oil Production and Inventory**: - As of March 28, U.S. crude oil production reached 13.58 million barrels per day, surpassing pre-pandemic levels [7]. - U.S. crude oil inventories increased by 6.45 million barrels, indicating a surplus in supply [19]. 6. **Market Sentiment and Future Outlook**: - The market sentiment is pessimistic, with expectations that WTI prices could drop to $40-$45 per barrel if the trade war continues [21][23]. - OPEC's strategy appears to be aimed at maintaining market share rather than supporting prices, which could lead to further price declines [25][26]. Other Important but Overlooked Content - The call highlighted the potential for a significant drop in oil prices due to the ongoing trade tensions and OPEC's production decisions, suggesting that the market may not stabilize until prices reach around $40 per barrel [23][26]. - The discussion also touched on the geopolitical landscape, indicating that a direct conflict between the U.S. and Iran is unlikely in the short term, which could prevent a spike in oil prices due to geopolitical tensions [27]. - The overall strategy for oil-related investments is to consider short positions, as further declines in oil prices and related chemical products are anticipated [28].

场,很多资金都在避险回撤。 当然贴水扩大不一定100%下跌,否则照着贴水买涨跌不早就发财了,贴水波动反应的是市场情绪,我如实描述,尤其是这些情绪现在一般都被媒体忽 视。我最近逛国内财经网站的时候,总觉得内容报道时的倾向性越来越明显。 昨晚的文章简单提到了1985年的广场协议,为了方便读者理解我做了简化描述,其实当时参与协议的除了日本美国外,还有英法和西德,加起来一共5个 国家。 这5个国家里日本和西德是主要的顺差国,美国是主要逆差国,英国是给美国站场子的,法国是来浑水摸鱼的。最后协议的主要内容是让日元和德国马克 升值,以此来缓解美国的贸易逆差。 日本在日元升值后,多次降息对冲,放大国内金融杠杆,最终在90年代崩盘衰退。不过1985年日元升值以后,日本资本大量投资海外,在海外没少挣钱, 实际上没有"消失的30年"那么惨。 德国在广场协议后马克对美元也升值了70%,但是德国是一个对金融杠杆始终很谨慎的国家,即便出口受阻也不愿意过度刺激,坚持3%以上的利率以及 财政紧缩,控制了风险。另外就是90年代东西德合并,以及东欧剧变、苏联崩溃,这些为德国经济的再次启动提供了市场土壤。 大致就是这样,1985年的日本和2025 ...
