1. Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant content provided. 2. Core Views of the Report - The weak market of coke and coking coal futures continues, and there may be new lows in the next two weeks. However, positive factors in fundamentals and news are accumulating. Attention should be paid to whether there will be a turnaround in the market with changes in tariff policies and recovery of confidence in the steel market in the next two weeks [11]. 3. Summary by Relevant Catalogs 3.1 Market Review and Future Outlook 3.1.1 Futures Market Performance - On May 21, the main contracts of coke and coking coal futures, J2509 and JM2509, oscillated and rebounded, but the gains narrowed. The JM2509 contract hit a new low of 835 yuan/ton for the September contract since September 2016 during the night trading session [7]. - The closing prices of J2509 and JM2509 were 1417.5 yuan/ton and 842 yuan/ton respectively, with a decline of 0.14% and 0.36% respectively. The trading volumes were 19,389 lots and 392,164 lots respectively, and the open interests decreased by 1,902 lots and 5,210 lots respectively. The capital outflows were 0.43 billion yuan and 0.33 billion yuan respectively [5]. 3.1.2 Spot Market Dynamics and Technical Analysis - On May 21, the spot prices of quasi - first - class metallurgical coke at Rizhao Port, Qingdao Port, and Tianjin Port were 1390 yuan/ton, and that in Tangshan was 1320 yuan/ton, with no change. The spot prices of low - sulfur main coking coal in different regions remained stable [10]. - The daily KDJ indicators of the J2509 and JM2509 contracts showed divergent trends, with the J and K values turning up and the D value continuing to decline. The green bars of the daily MACD of the two contracts began to narrow [10]. 3.1.3 Future Outlook - **Coke**: The output of independent coking plants has been hovering near the highest level since early August last year in the past four weeks, while the output of steel mills has declined slightly since late April. The port inventory has decreased significantly, but the de - stocking speed of steel mills and coking plants is slow, putting downward pressure on prices. The profit per ton of coke has been positive for two consecutive weeks, which has led to the delay of the second price increase after the first increase in mid - April and created conditions for steel mills to propose price cuts [11]. - **Coking Coal**: The import volume remains high, and the loose supply pattern is difficult to reverse. The raw coal inventory of coal washing plants has increased again, and the clean coal inventory has risen to a relatively high level. The inventory of independent coking plants has decreased significantly in the past four weeks, and the port inventory has returned to the normal level before early August last year, but the inventory of steel mills has increased steadily. If coking plants also adopt a de - stocking strategy, the price of coking coal is likely to fall [11]. - **News**: The preliminary agreement on mutual substantial tariff cuts has been reached in the Sino - US trade negotiations, and the National Development and Reform Commission will continue to promote urban renewal work and issue the central budget investment plan for urban renewal in 2025 before the end of June [11]. 3.2 Industry News - On May 20, the Ministry of Finance announced that from January to April 2025, the national general public budget revenue was 8.0616 trillion yuan, a year - on - year decrease of 0.4%.

Investment incentives for the steel manufacturing industry will be cancelled [14]. - In South Korea in 2024, nuclear power generation accounted for 31.7% of the total power generation, ranking first, and coal and natural gas power generation each accounted for 28.1%, ranking second. The proportion of renewable energy power generation exceeded 10% for the first time [14]. - In the week of May 16, the US API crude oil inventory increased by 2.499 million barrels, the Cushing crude oil inventory decreased by 443,000 barrels, the gasoline inventory decreased by 3.238 million barrels, and the distillate oil inventory decreased by 1.401 million barrels [14]. 3.3 Data Overview The report provides multiple data charts, including the spot price index of metallurgical coke, the summary price of main coking coal, the production and capacity utilization rate of coking plants and steel mills, the daily average pig iron production, the inventory of coke and coking coal in ports, coking plants, and steel mills, the profit per ton of independent coking plants, the production and operating rate of coal washing plants, the inventory of raw coal and clean coal in coal washing plants, and the basis of Rizhao Port's quasi - first - class coke and Linfen's low - sulfur main coking coal against the September contracts [16][18][20][28][29][32].

Summary of the Conference Call for Luxshare Precision Industry Co., Ltd. Industry Overview - The conference call primarily discusses the impact of recent changes in tariff policies between the U.S. and China on the consumer electronics manufacturing industry, particularly focusing on Luxshare Precision Industry Co., Ltd. [3][21] Key Points and Arguments 1. **Impact of Tariff Changes**: The recent tariff changes have exceeded market expectations, particularly the U.S. tariffs on products from Southeast Asian countries. Although most products from Luxshare do not export to the U.S., some finished products have been affected, leading to potential production shifts to lower-tariff regions [3][4] 2. **Production Capacity Transfer**: The likelihood of large-scale production capacity transfer from Vietnam to other countries is low unless tariffs in Vietnam exceed those in other countries by 10%. Vietnam's advantages in supply chain connectivity and logistics make it less likely for brands and manufacturers to disrupt existing value chains [4][5] 3. **Cost Sharing Mechanism**: Increased tariff costs are typically shared between supply chain customers and end consumers, rather than being fully borne by manufacturers. The specific sharing ratio depends on market negotiations and the bargaining power of each party [6] 4. **Customer Collaboration**: When facing increased tariffs, customers usually collaborate with suppliers to enhance competitiveness rather than directly passing cost pressures onto manufacturers. Historical data shows that cost pressures due to tariffs have not been directly transmitted to manufacturers [7][8] 5. **Competition Landscape**: The competitive landscape of the consumer electronics industry is not expected to change significantly due to tariff variations. Geopolitical factors and local policies have already influenced the market, and the core competitiveness of companies remains crucial [8][9] 6. **Production Timeline**: If customers require production capacity to be established in low-tariff regions, the fastest timeline for Luxshare to complete production lines is estimated to be between one to one and a half years [14] 7. **Global Tariff Policy Changes**: The current global tariff policy changes are not expected to have a large-scale impact on the consumer electronics manufacturing and automotive industries. The overall market structure remains relatively stable despite tariff fluctuations [21][22] 8. **Inventory Management**: Some companies are preparing inventory in advance to respond to fluctuations in U.S. market demand, but this practice is not widespread. Most companies are only slightly adjusting their inventory levels due to capacity constraints across the entire supply chain [23] 9. **Manufacturing Return to the U.S.**: The feasibility of manufacturing returning to the U.S. is questioned, as it requires a complete and long-term industrial chain, which is currently challenging for the consumer electronics sector. However, high-automation products may have some potential for U.S. production [12] 10. **Regional Production Strategies**: The discussion indicates that while there are considerations for production in regions like India, Mexico, or Brazil, the current conditions do not favor such moves. Vietnam remains a strong manufacturing base due to its established ecosystem [10][11] Other Important Insights - **Tariff Calculation**: Export tariffs are calculated based on the terminal export price, and there may be potential for tariff exemptions based on origin rules, although this remains uncertain [26] - **Flexibility in Global Layout**: Companies are encouraged to maintain a flexible global layout to quickly adapt to policy changes and reduce costs, as demonstrated by Luxshare's established factories in multiple countries [25] - **Market Dynamics**: The dynamics of the consumer electronics market are influenced by various factors, including tariffs, exchange rates, and overall competitiveness, which should be prioritized over panic regarding external changes [28]
