1. Report Industry Investment Rating No information provided in the report. 2. Core Viewpoints of the Report - **Copper**: Overnight LME copper fluctuated weakly, and domestic copper opened lower and fluctuated narrowly with the domestic spot import window continuously open. Concerns about the Fed's independence may increase expectations of monetary policy easing. Seasonal off - peak is ending, downstream orders may improve, and scrap copper substitution is favorable.

Group 1: Report Industry Investment Rating - No relevant content provided Group 2: Core Viewpoints of the Report - The TL2509 variety is expected to be volatile in the short - term, medium - term, and intraday, with an intraday bias towards being volatile on the stronger side. The core logic is that there is still an expectation of loose monetary policy, but the possibility of an interest rate cut in the short term is low [1]. - For major varieties such as TL, T, TF, and TS, the intraday view is volatile on the stronger side, the medium - term view is volatile, and the reference view is volatile. The overall situation is that Treasury bond futures will mainly be in a volatile consolidation phase in the short term. The core logic is that Treasury bond futures oscillated and pulled back yesterday. Since the market interest rate approached the policy rate at the end of July, the anchoring effect of the policy rate has emerged, limiting the further rise of the market interest rate. Treasury bond futures have bottomed out and rebounded since August. The rising risk appetite in the domestic stock market has led to a decline in the demand for Treasury bonds, putting short - term pressure on Treasury bond futures. However, the macro - economic data in the first half of the year showed strong resilience, and the policy side emphasized the implementation of a moderately loose monetary policy to further reduce the cost of real - entity financing, increasing the expectation of future loosening [5]. Group 3: Summary by Related Catalogs Variety Viewpoint Reference - Financial Futures Stock Index Sector - For the TL2509 variety, the short - term view is volatile, the medium - term view is volatile, the intraday view is volatile on the stronger side, and the overall view is volatile.

Report Summary 1. Report Industry Investment Rating No investment rating information is provided in the report. 2. Core Viewpoints - The overall view of Treasury bond futures is that they will fluctuate in the short - term, with the short - term view of TL2509 being fluctuating, the medium - term view being fluctuating, and the intraday view being fluctuating and slightly stronger. The general reference view is fluctuating [1][5]. - Although the demand for Treasury bonds has been somewhat suppressed since July due to the rapid increase in stock market risk appetite, strong internal economic fundamentals, and the easing of external risk factors, the future policy will remain moderately loose, and there is still an expectation of monetary easing. The upward and downward space for market interest rates is limited in the short - term, so Treasury bond futures will mainly fluctuate and consolidate [5]. 3.

Group 1: Report Core View - Today, Treasury bond futures fluctuated and rose. Due to the Politburo meeting in July mentioning the implementation of a moderately loose monetary policy, the future monetary environment tends to be loose, and the expectation of interest rate cuts has rebounded. After continuous corrections since July, the 1 - year Treasury bond yield has rebounded to near the policy rate, triggering the anchoring effect of the policy rate, so Treasury bond futures bottomed out and rebounded. The manufacturing PMI released in July was 49.3, down 0.4 percentage points from the previous month, indicating a decline in manufacturing prosperity and insufficient effective domestic demand. The weak performance of the manufacturing PMI increases the expectation of future monetary easing, which is beneficial to Treasury bond futures. In general, it is expected that Treasury bond futures will mainly fluctuate within a range in the short term [3] Group 2: Industry News and Related Charts - On July 31, 2025, the People's Bank of China conducted 283.2 billion yuan of reverse repurchase operations at a fixed - rate, quantity - tender method for a term of 7 days with a winning bid rate of 1.4% [5] - On July 31, the National Bureau of Statistics released data showing that in July, the manufacturing purchasing managers' index (PMI) was 49.3%, down 0.4 percentage points from the previous month, and the manufacturing prosperity level declined [5] - The report also includes charts such as the trends of TL2509, T2509, TF2509, TS2509, the Treasury bond yield - to - maturity curve, and the central bank's open - market operations [6][8][10]

Core Viewpoint - The article discusses the potential for gold prices to reach 1000 yuan per gram in the second half of 2025, analyzing current market dynamics, core driving factors, and risks involved [1]. Group 1: Factors Supporting Gold Price Increase - Continued demand for safe-haven assets due to ongoing geopolitical conflicts, such as the Middle East situation and the Russia-Ukraine conflict, which maintain gold's appeal as a traditional safe-haven asset [1]. - Global central banks are accelerating "de-dollarization," with 95% planning to increase gold reserves by 2025, driving up demand for gold [1]. - Expectations of monetary policy easing, particularly a potential interest rate cut by the Federal Reserve in the second half of 2025, which would weaken the dollar and benefit gold [2]. - Resilience of inflation, where persistent global inflation would highlight gold's anti-inflation properties [3]. - Supply-demand imbalance, with limited gold reserves that can be mined for about 16 years and a slow increase in mined gold, while investment demand surged, with a 29% increase in global gold ETF holdings in 2024 and a 24.54% year-on-year increase in domestic gold bar consumption [4]. Group 2: Risks Pressuring Gold Price Increase - Short-term correction pressure due to technical adjustments, as evidenced by a drop of over 160 USD in international gold prices in June 2025, leading to a nearly 50 yuan per gram decline in domestic gold jewelry prices [5]. - Market sentiment reversal could occur if geopolitical tensions ease or if U.S. economic data exceeds expectations, potentially triggering profit-taking [6]. - Policy expectations may not materialize; if inflation remains sticky, the Federal Reserve might delay interest rate cuts, negatively impacting gold prices [7]. - Weak physical consumption, with domestic gold jewelry consumption expected to decline by 24.69% year-on-year in 2024, as high gold prices suppress demand [8]. Group 3: Feasibility Analysis for 1000 yuan/gram Target - Historical reference indicates a medium probability (50%) for gold prices to exceed 1000 yuan per gram if the Federal Reserve cuts rates, geopolitical tensions escalate, and central bank purchases exceed expectations [9]. - A high probability (40%) scenario suggests gold prices will fluctuate between 780-950 yuan per gram, driven by policy and sentiment [9]. - A low probability (10%) scenario indicates a deep correction if global risks diminish and the dollar strengthens [9]. Group 4: Strategies for Ordinary Investors - Conservative households should allocate 5%-10% of their assets to gold, equating to 5,000 to 10,000 yuan for a 1 million yuan asset base [12]. - Avoid chasing high prices, as current gold prices are at historical highs, presenting greater risks than rewards [13]. - Suggested investment tools include physical gold bars for long-term inflation protection, gold ETFs for swing trading, and paper gold for short-term leveraged operations, each with associated risks [14]. - Recommended operational discipline includes staggered buying if gold prices drop below 750 yuan per gram and setting stop-loss orders at a 10% decline while locking in profits at every 10% increase [15]. Conclusion - A breakthrough to 1000 yuan per gram requires multiple favorable conditions to align, with optimistic scenarios suggesting a temporary touch of this price point but unlikely to sustain [16]. - A more neutral outlook indicates a likely range of 800-950 yuan per gram with volatility exceeding 25% warranting caution [17].

Core Viewpoints of the Report - For the TL2509 variety, the short - term, medium - term, and overall view is "oscillation", with an intraday view of "oscillation on the strong side", due to weak macro - economic indicators and rising expectations of monetary easing [1]. - For the TL, T, TF, TS varieties, the intraday view is "oscillation on the strong side", the medium - term view is "oscillation", and the overall view is "oscillation". The bottom support for treasury bond futures is strong, and they will mainly oscillate and consolidate in the short term, as the financing demand of the real sector is still weak, the market's expectation of future monetary policy easing has increased, the central bank has injected liquidity, and there are expectations of policy benefits from the Lujiazui Forum [4]. 3. Summary by Related Catalogs 3.1 Variety Viewpoint Reference - Financial Futures Stock Index Sector - The time - cycle definitions are: short - term is within one week, and medium - term is from two weeks to one month. For the TL2509 variety, short - term, medium - term, and overall view is "oscillation", intraday view is "oscillation on the strong side", and the core logic is weak macro - economic indicators and rising expectations of monetary easing [1]. 3.2 Main Variety Price Market Driving Logic - Financial Futures Stock Index Sector - The varieties include TL, T, TF, TS. The intraday view is "oscillation on the strong side", the medium - term view is "oscillation", and the overall view is "oscillation". The core logic is that treasury bond futures oscillated and rose yesterday. May's credit data shows weak financing demand in the real sector, leading to rising expectations of monetary policy easing. The central bank's issuance of repurchase agreements has increased the expectation of a decline in market interest rates. The expected policy benefits from the Lujiazui Forum on the 18th will drive up the price of treasury bond futures. So, in the short term, treasury bond futures will mainly oscillate with strong bottom support [4].
