The daily MACD indicator of the coke 2601 contract changed from a golden cross the previous day to a death cross, and the daily MACD indicator of the coking coal 2601 contract showed a significant narrowing of the red column after a golden cross the previous day, nearly a death cross [8] 4. News and Policy 4.1 Coking Industry - On August 12, some coking enterprises in Shandong received oral notices of environmental production restrictions, requiring a 30% - 50% production cut from August 16 to early September. Specifically, from August 16 - 25, a 30% cut is required, from August 26 to September 3, a 50% cut, and production will resume on September 4 [10] 4.2 Coal Industry - On August 13, the National Mine Safety Administration held a press conference on the new version of the "Coal Mine Safety Regulations". The revision mainly includes significantly reducing the requirements for underground gas inspectors and inspection frequencies based on the actual coal mine operations, and relaxing some detailed requirements regarding the number of working faces to enterprise decision - making [10] 5. Fundamental Analysis 5.1 Coke - The coke production of independent coking plants has slowly recovered to a new high since mid - June, but the overall increase is still small. The coke production of steel mills has continued to decline, reaching a new low since early February. Port coke inventories have reached a new high since the end of May and tend to continue accumulating, while steel mills and coking plants have further reduced their inventories, reaching new lows since mid - December and early December last year respectively. The profit per ton of coke has been in the red for 12 consecutive weeks. The 5th round of spot price increase for coke was implemented on August 4, and the 6th round of price increase proposed on August 13 may be implemented the next day [10] 5.2 Coking Coal - From January to July, the year - on - year import volume of coal and lignite in China increased by 1.9 percentage points to - 13.0%.

The inventories of refined coal and raw coal in mines have significantly decreased in the past 7 weeks, with declines of 50.8% and 32.1% respectively. The inventories of independent coking plants are hovering near a new high since early February, and the inventories of steel mills have continued to rise, reaching a new high since early February, while port inventories have reached a new low since early August last year. With the continuous increase in steel mill inventories and the cooling of coking plant replenishment, the spot price of coking coal is relatively strong [11] 6. Market Outlook - Affected by the production restrictions of steel enterprises in Tangshan, which boosted the profits of downstream finished products, and the superimposed production restrictions of coking enterprises in Shandong, although the recent increase in the spot prices of coke and coking coal has been relatively lagging, the futures market, especially the main 2601 contract, has risen significantly again. However, it failed to break through on August 13, and the market may shift to a mid - to - high - level oscillation in the future. Attention should be paid to changes in the stock market and risk appetite [11] 7.
