Report Summary 1. Report Industry Investment Rating No investment rating information is provided in the report. 2. Report's Core View - For copper, the market is influenced by multiple factors. The US government's policies may intensify the global supply - demand tightness, but domestic factors like canceled photovoltaic projects and the off - season in the copper industry reduce the upward momentum. For protein粕, the market is complex with different trends in related products, and the future trend of bean粕 depends on factors such as US soybean weather. For petroleum asphalt, the demand is weak due to rainfall and project funds, and the supply is increasing, so the price is expected to be under pressure in the long - term [1][3][4][6][8][10]. 3. Summary by Variety Copper - **Intraday and Mid - term Views**: Intraday view is in the range of 77000 - 78600, and the mid - term view is in the range of 60000 - 90000. The reference strategy is to adopt an oscillating operation idea [1]. - **Core Logic**: Macroscopically, there are concerns about high tariffs on imported copper. Supply - wise, the Kamoa - Kakula copper mine will resume operation at the end of June, and the global copper concentrate supply - demand tightness persists. Demand - wise, the开工 rate of refined copper rod enterprises is expected to rise slightly this week but may decline in June. Consumption in different regions is weak. In terms of inventory, LME copper inventory decreased and SHFE copper warehouse receipts increased on June 4 [1][2]. - **Outlook**: The US government's policies may exacerbate the supply - demand tightness, but domestic factors reduce the upward momentum [3]. Protein粕 - **Core Logic**: This week, the meal market oscillated. The pressure from domestic traders' large - scale purchases of South American soybeans may have been released. The weather speculation of US soybeans before the end of August may help bean粕 2509 build a bottom. The vegetable oil market has different trends, affected by policies and planting progress [4]. - **International Situation**: US soybean planting is going smoothly. The expected soybean arrivals in June, July, and August are 1200, 950, and 850 million tons respectively. Canadian rapeseed planting is faster than usual, and the global rapeseed production is expected to increase in the 25/26 season [5]. - **Outlook**: Pay attention to the USDA and MPOB monthly reports next week. Bean粕 2509 will generally oscillate, and it is advisable to consider selling out - of - the - money put options on the near - month contracts [6]. - **Intraday and Mid - term Views**: Intraday, bean粕 2509 oscillates in the range of [2900, 3000]. Mid - term, it searches for a bottom at a relatively low position in the range of [2800, 3100]. The reference strategy is to continue holding the sold out - of - the - money put option of bean粕 2509 - P - 2850 [7]. Petroleum Asphalt - **Intraday and Mid - term Views**: Intraday, it runs under pressure, and mid - term, it oscillates weakly. The reference strategy is to sell high [8]. - **Core Logic**: Supply - side, local refineries' losses in asphalt production have deepened, but the domestic asphalt plant operating rate has increased. Demand - side, due to rainfall and project funds, the demand is weak. Inventory - wise, the plant inventory has declined for three consecutive weeks, and the social inventory has increased for two consecutive weeks. The cost is affected by the oil price, which has some upward potential but also faces pressure from OPEC+ [8][9]. - **Outlook**: The release of asphalt's rigid demand is less than expected. In the long - term, with the increase in supply, if the oil price falls, the asphalt price is expected to follow a weak trend [10].

Report Industry Investment Ratings No relevant information provided. Core Views Nickel - The short - term fundamentals change little. The nickel price is expected to be weak and fluctuate, with the main reference range of 118,000 - 126,000. Attention should be paid to Indonesian policy changes [1].

Domestically, there is a supply shortage during the transition period between old and new grains. Wheat may replace corn in the feed sector, and weather will affect prices. Downstream demand is weak [1] Metals - **Copper** - **Spot Price**: The price of Shanghai 1 electrolytic copper is 78350 - 78620 yuan/ton, up 40 yuan/ton [2] - **Market Analysis**: US employment data and political factors affect the possible end of the interest - rate cut cycle. Domestic policies support the market. Raw material supply issues persist, and copper inventory is declining, making the market more complex [2] - **Lithium Carbonate** - **Spot Price**: Battery - grade lithium carbonate (99.5%) is 60800 yuan/ton, and industrial - grade (99.2%) is 59150 yuan/ton, with no change from the previous day [3] - **Market Analysis**: Cost pressure is increasing, ore prices are falling, and inventory is high. Supply is still above average, and demand is divided. Overall, prices are falling, and attention should be paid to upstream production cuts [3] - **Steel** - **Spot Price**: Shanghai rebar is 3090 yuan, with a Tangshan开工率 of 83.56%, social inventory of 532.76 million tons, and steel mill inventory of 200.4 million tons [5] - **Market Analysis**: The steel fundamentals are improving, with a neutral - low valuation. Policy supports the real estate industry. Demand is down year - on - year, raw material prices are weak, and inventory is low. The market is driven by policy expectations and fundamentals [5] - **Coking Coal and Coke** - **Spot Price**: The price of Mongolian 5 coking coal is 1205 yuan/ton, and the price of quasi - first - grade metallurgical coke in Rizhao Port is 1340 yuan/ton [6] - **Market Analysis**: Supply is abundant, demand is weak due to steel mill production cuts, inventory is slowly increasing, and profit is approaching the break - even point [6] - **Iron Ore** - **Spot Price**: The Platts iron ore index is 97.2, and the price of Qingdao PB (61.5) powder is 735 yuan [7] - **Market Analysis**: Supply and demand factors are mixed. Australian shipments are down, Brazilian shipments are up, and port inventory is decreasing. Domestic steel mill demand is weak, and overseas demand is divided [7] Energy and Chemicals - **Crude Oil** - **Market Analysis**: Tensions in the Middle East and OPEC+ production decisions have led to supply concerns. OPEC has lowered future demand growth forecasts, and there are concerns about global demand [8] - **Rubber** - **Spot Price**: Different types of rubber have different prices, such as 13350 yuan/ton for domestic whole - latex [9] - **Market Analysis**: Overseas orders and domestic demand should be monitored. The trade war and oversupply are dragging down prices. Supply is abundant as domestic and Southeast Asian rubber trees are in the tapping season [9] - **PVC** - **Spot Price**: The mainstream price of East China Type 5 PVC is 4680 yuan/ton, unchanged from the previous period [10] - **Market Analysis**: Production capacity utilization has increased, demand is still mainly for rigid needs, and inventory has decreased.

Group 1: Market Overview - LME three-month copper price fell by $12.50 or 0.13%, closing at $9,621.50 per ton on June 4 [1][2] - LME copper inventory decreased by 2,500 tons or 1.74%, reaching a near one-year low of 141,350 tons [4] Group 2: Trade Developments - President Trump announced an increase in tariffs on imported steel and aluminum from 25% to 50%, effective June 4, 2025 [3] - The U.S. Trade Representative's office sent a letter to trade partners reminding them of the upcoming deadline for trade negotiations [3] Group 3: Price Dynamics - COMEX copper price rose by 1.21% to $4.8925 per pound, with a premium over LME copper of $1,164.6 per ton [7] - LME tin led the gains among base metals, rising by $640 or 2.04%, closing at $32,018 per ton due to supply concerns [8]

Group 1: Copper - The LME cash - 3M spread widened due to the large - scale extraction of Russian copper from LME warehouses and its entry into the Chinese market, and high spot premiums in Southeast Asia. Domestic cross - month spreads and spot premiums remained stable, with weakening export demand and potential weakening downstream demand and orders. The supply disruption at Kamora Copper Mine may last until the fourth quarter, negatively affecting Ivanhoe's annual production guidance. The domestic refined copper balance may shift from tight to neutral, and rising inventory may suppress absolute prices [1]. Group 2: Aluminum - Supply increased slightly, with large imports of aluminum ingots from January to April. Demand from May to June is not expected to decline significantly, with stable aluminum product exports and a slight decline in photovoltaic demand. There is still a supply - demand gap. Inventory is expected to decline gradually from May to July. The fundamentals are acceptable, and attention should be paid to demand. Long - short spreads can be held if the absolute price drops [1]. Group 3: Zinc - Zinc prices fluctuated widely this week, briefly surging due to rumors of extended maintenance at a southern smelter. Domestic TC rose to 3,600 yuan/ton, and smelting output is expected to increase by 25,000 tons in June compared to May. Domestic demand has limited elasticity, with slow - falling spot premiums and weak orders in North China, while exports in East and South China are stable. Overseas spot premiums are recovering, and European demand is slightly improving. Domestic social inventory is accumulating slowly, and the inflection point of accelerated accumulation is expected to occur in early June. LME inventory is slightly declining. Attention should be paid to the transition from inventory drawdown to accumulation, and short positions are recommended to be held. Partial profit - taking can be considered for long - short spreads due to potential Trump tariff interference [2]. Group 4: Nickel - On the supply side, pure nickel production remains high, and Russian nickel imports increased in April. Demand is weak overall, and Jinchuan's premium strengthened slightly after the price decline. Overseas nickel plate inventory is slightly increasing, and domestic inventory is stable. The macro - impact is weakening, and the short - term fundamentals are average. Opportunities to narrow the nickel - stainless steel price ratio can continue to be monitored [3]. Group 5: Stainless Steel - In terms of supply, production increased seasonally in April, and some steel mills cut production passively in May. Demand is mainly for rigid needs. The prices of nickel and chrome iron are stable. Inventory in Xijiao and Foshan is slightly decreasing, and exchange warehouse receipts are partially expiring. The fundamentals are generally weak, and short - term fluctuations are expected [3]. Group 6: Lead - Lead prices oscillated downward this week. On the supply side, scrap volume is weak year - on - year, recyclers are panic - selling, and mid - stream secondary smelters have concentrated production capacity, but operate at half capacity due to tight scrap battery supply. Downstream demand is weak, with about 50% capacity utilization. Concentrate supply is abundant from April to May. On the demand side, battery inventory is high, and overall demand is weak, but there is a motivation for replenishment this week. The refined - scrap price difference is +75, and secondary lead prices are strongly supported. LME inventory has concentrated deliveries. The old - for - new policy continues, but overall consumption is weak in the off - season from April. The price is expected to oscillate between 16,400 - 16,700 next week, and supply is expected to decline in May [5]. Group 7: Tin - Tin prices declined this week due to weak commodity sentiment and energy prices. On the supply side, the short - term复产 in Myanmar's Wa State requires negotiation, processing fees are low, and smelting profits are inverted. Some smelters in Jiangxi have cut production, and those in Yunnan are struggling. Overseas supply disruptions have basically subsided. On the demand side, solder demand has limited elasticity, and the growth of terminal electronics and photovoltaics is expected to slow. Domestic downstream actively replenished inventory after the price drop, and overseas consumption continues to be strong with low - level inventory fluctuations. Small - brand tin ingots are still in short supply, and exchange inventory is mainly high - priced Yunzi brand, with weak downstream提货意愿. In the short term, supply disruptions and weakening demand coexist, and the first half of the year is expected to see weak supply and demand. June may be a key period to verify the transmission from tight ore to tight ingot supply. Short - term observation is recommended, and medium - term short - selling opportunities can be monitored [7]. Group 8: Industrial Silicon - Some northern large - scale plants resumed production this week, Sichuan Tongwei continued to increase production, and new production capacities of Yunnan Yongchang and Xin'an Silicon Materials are gradually coming online. Market overall operating rate increased slightly, and some small plants in Sichuan plan to resume production in June during the wet season. Organic silicon plants that previously cut production increased their operating rates, slightly boosting the demand for industrial silicon. Inventory is at a high level, with sufficient warehouse receipts and non - standard goods, and high spot pressure. In the short term, both supply and demand are decreasing, and the rigid demand from polysilicon and organic silicon is weak. Speculative demand in downstream and mid - stream sectors is limited. Currently, the overall supply and demand of industrial silicon reach a tight balance after upstream large - scale plants reduce their operating rates. However, with the commissioning of new production capacities and small - scale resumption of small plants in the wet season, future supply has significant potential pressure. In the long - term, industrial silicon prices are expected to bottom - out based on the cash - flow costs of leading large - scale plants [10]. Group 9: Lithium Carbonate - Lithium carbonate prices declined this week. Downstream buyers prefer new or discounted goods, and the basis of new goods is decreasing. Manufacturers are reluctant to sell and try to support prices, while traders have difficulty selling. Tianqi and Yahua resumed production, small recycling plants cut production more severely, some self - owned mines rely on hedging to maintain profits and production, and Jiangxi Chunpeng plans maintenance. The inventory accumulation speed slowed this week, and downstream only maintains a safety inventory. Low prices reduce the registration of new goods in warehouse receipts, and production in June is expected to decrease slightly. In the long - term, there are many lithium mine and lithium salt capacity expansion projects. If the operating rates of leading mine - smelting integrated enterprises do not significantly decline, lithium carbonate prices will continue to oscillate weakly. In the short term, downstream demand is weak, and policies to stimulate demand are less effective than expected. Lithium ore prices are declining, and lithium prices lack support. Downstream buyers replenish inventory cautiously at low prices. Smelters using externally - sourced ores are all in losses and cut production. The price has reached the cost line of some self - owned mines, which rely on hedging to maintain profits. Cathode production is less motivated due to losses, and high - cost production capacities may be cleared. Future supply has high elasticity, and there may be more news of production cuts and shutdowns next week, with prices expected to decline after oscillations [12].

1. Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant content provided. 2. Core Views of the Report - **Copper**: Overnight LME copper first declined and then rose, up 0.24% to $9,638.5/ton; SHFE copper main contract rose 0.5% to 78,180 yuan/ton. The US April JOLTS job openings unexpectedly increased, easing market concerns about the economy and job market. The Fed may maintain a hawkish stance, and the probability of a rate cut in June is low. LME copper inventory decreased by 4,600 tons to 143,850 tons, while the domestic mainstream copper inventory increased by 14,300 tons to 153,000 tons. With the arrival of the off - season and the end of the phased export rush, downstream and terminal procurement is cautious. The US tariff policy and the 232 investigation may support copper prices. The current copper price is at a directional crossroads, and if it breaks through the 78,000 - 80,000 yuan/ton resistance range, it may rise further [1]. - **Aluminum**: After the holiday, alumina and Shanghai aluminum both trended stronger. AO2509 closed at 3,036 yuan/ton, up 1.27%, and AL2507 closed at 19,990 yuan/ton, up 0.25%. The SMM alumina price slightly declined to 3,275 yuan/ton, and the aluminum ingot spot premium widened to 110 yuan/ton. Alumina supply and demand both increased, and the ore cost provided short - term support. The electrolytic aluminum demand has both off - season pressure and structural resilience. The price is supported by the low - level destocking at the beginning of the month, and the overall operating center may decline slightly with the cost. Attention should be paid to inventory changes [1][2]. - **Nickel**: Overnight LME nickel fell 0.23% to $15,475/ton, while Shanghai nickel rose 0.25% to 121,860 yuan/ton. LME nickel inventory increased by 1,152 tons to 201,462 tons, and domestic SHFE nickel warrants decreased by 19 tons to 22,038 tons. The nickel ore price was stable. In the stainless - steel industry chain, the raw material nickel - iron trading was sluggish, and the cost still provided support. The supply at home and abroad decreased, and the stainless - steel inventory decreased. However, the overall demand was weak. In the new - energy sector, the supply and demand of nickel sulfate were both weak.

1. Report Industry Investment Ratings No information about industry investment ratings is provided in the content. 2. Core Views of the Report Crude Oil - International crude oil futures prices have been rising, supported by a weakening US dollar and geopolitical risks. The supply - side OPEC+ production increase has alleviated concerns, but trade frictions suppress demand. After the holiday, the short - term trend depends on the US dollar, geopolitical situation, and supply - demand re - balancing. Unilateral trading can be in a slightly bullish direction, with WTI in the range of [59, 69], Brent [61, 71], and SC [440, 500]. Pay attention to the rebound opportunity of INE spreads and consider buying a straddle option to capture post - holiday volatility [8]. Styrene - In June, the supply - demand of styrene is expected to gradually become looser, and the price remains under pressure. However, due to tight spot circulation, the near - end price may fluctuate. It is advisable to take a short - selling approach [2]. Chlor - Alkali - For caustic soda, short - term spot prices remain strong. Before the fundamentals significantly weaken or warehouse receipts flow out, consider expanding the spread between the near - month and September contracts. For PVC, in the long - term, supply - demand contradictions are prominent. In June, supply pressure is expected to increase, and demand is weak. It is recommended to take a short - selling approach, with an operating range of 4500 - 5000, while also paying attention to macro - level disturbances [30][40]. Urea - The core contradiction of urea lies in high supply and weak demand expectations. Currently, supply is abundant, and demand is in a seasonal off - peak. After the Dragon Boat Festival, the market will test whether agricultural fertilizer procurement can start effectively. If not, it may further pressure the market [44]. Polyolefin - For plastics, there is an expectation of inventory reduction in early June due to increased maintenance and less imports. For PP, supply pressure will increase as maintenance ends. Demand lacks sustainability after a round of replenishment. Unilateral trading for PP can be short - biased at high prices, and the LP spread is expected to widen [46]. Polyester Industry Chain - **PX**: In June, PX supply - demand is expected to be tight, but may weaken after mid - June. It is expected to fluctuate at a high level. Consider short - selling at high levels, gradually exit the PX9 - 1 positive spread, and look for opportunities to narrow the PX - SC spread [50]. - **PTA**: In June, PTA supply - demand remains tight but may weaken in late June. It is expected to fluctuate at a high level. Consider short - selling at high levels and exit the TA9 - 1 positive spread at high prices [50]. - **MEG**: In June, the supply - demand structure of ethylene glycol is good, with inventory reduction expectations. Consider buying EG09 at around 4200 and taking a positive spread for EG9 - 1 [50]. - **Short - fiber**: In June, short - fiber supply - demand is expected to be weak. It is expected to fluctuate at a high level following the cost. Consider expanding the PF July processing fee around 800 [50]. - **Bottle chips**: In June, bottle chip supply - demand is expected to improve, and processing fees will be supported. Consider expanding the processing fee at the lower end of the 350 - 600 yuan/ton range [50]. 3. Summaries by Relevant Catalogs Crude Oil - **Price and Spread Data**: On June 3, Brent was at $65.12/barrel, WTI at $63.05/barrel.
