锌市场:7月产量或增,短期锌价或偏强运行
Sou Hu Cai Jing· 2025-07-20 15:41
Core Viewpoint - The zinc market is experiencing a stable supply and demand situation, with an increase in both domestic and imported zinc concentrate inventories, while consumption is expected to decline in the short term due to seasonal factors [1] Supply Side - Domestic zinc concentrate market remains stable, with the average weekly TC price at 3,800 RMB per metal ton and the imported zinc concentrate index rising to 73.75 USD per dry ton [1] - Port inventories of imported zinc concentrate increased by 107,000 tons to 440,000 tons, indicating a robust supply [1] - Despite the increase in imported TC, domestic smelting profits are high, leading smelters to prefer domestic concentrate, suggesting potential for further TC increases [1] Smelting Sector - In July, domestic smelting plants are undergoing both maintenance and resumption of operations, with refined zinc output expected to increase by approximately 12,000 tons month-on-month [1] - The recent rise in zinc concentrate processing fees has expanded smelter profits, and with sufficient domestic zinc concentrate supply, smelting activity is likely to increase [1] Consumption Trends - July and August are typically off-peak months for zinc consumption, resulting in reduced terminal orders and lower operational enthusiasm among downstream enterprises [1] - Downstream raw material inventories are at high levels, leading to poor purchasing sentiment, although policies like "old for new" may stimulate consumption [1] - Attention should be paid to consumption in infrastructure, automotive, and home appliance sectors [1] Inventory Data - As of July 17, SMM zinc ingot inventory stood at 93,500 tons, an increase of 400 tons from July 14 and 3,200 tons from July 10 [1] - LME zinc inventory on July 18 was 119,100 tons, up 13,900 tons from July 11 [1] Market Outlook - The macroeconomic environment is improving, with indications of short positions exiting the market [1] - Zinc prices may rebound due to macroeconomic and funding conditions, but medium to long-term outlook suggests ample supply from the mining sector and potential for TC increases [1] - Smelters are expected to maintain high operating rates, leading to increased refined zinc supply, while consumption is entering a seasonal decline, potentially resulting in inventory accumulation [1] Trading Strategy - A single-sided trading approach is recommended, with short-term zinc prices expected to be strong, allowing for day trading on long positions [1] - As macro sentiment fades, consider shorting based on inventory accumulation levels [1] - For arbitrage operations, a wait-and-see approach is advised [1]

The SHFE zinc market was volatile this week due to the mixed macro situation and the fundamentals of increasing supply and weakening demand in the off - season, with signs of inventory accumulation and weakening spot premiums [3]. - The Fed kept interest rates unchanged, and Fed officials' differences became public. In June, the processing fees continued to rise, smelters were highly motivated to produce, and the output from newly - put - into - operation smelters and the resumption of some overhauled smelters are expected to lead to an increase in production in June, making the domestic supply gradually more relaxed. The zinc import window closed in June [3]. - This week, the downstream开工 was under pressure. The galvanizing开工 decreased, the orders for galvanized pipes were few, and the demand for galvanized structural parts weakened in the off - season. The开工 of die - casting zinc alloys decreased, and the demand weakened with a slower shipment rhythm. The开工 of zinc oxide remained flat with weakening orders, but some zinc oxide enterprises are expected to resume production next week, and the开工 may increase slightly [3]. - The domestic zinc ingot spot inventory increased, while the LME zinc inventory continued to decrease. With the Fed's stance, high production enthusiasm of smelters, expected increase in zinc ingot production, weakening demand in the off - season, and signs of inventory accumulation despite the low social inventory of zinc ingots, it is recommended to short SHFE zinc at high prices [3]. Summary by Directory 01 Price Data - The SHFE zinc market was volatile this week. The spread between SHFE zinc 07 - 08 contracts weakened week - on - week, and the LME zinc 0 - 3M backwardation changed little week - on - week. Due to weak downstream demand, the spot premium decreased [8][12][17]. 02 Fundamental Data - This week, the port inventory of zinc concentrates decreased by 0.1 million tons week - on - week, and the raw material inventory increased by 1.4 million tons [20]. - In June, the processing fees continued to rise, smelters were highly motivated to produce, and the production in June is expected to increase, making the domestic supply gradually more relaxed [23][24]. - In May, the net import of refined zinc was 2.53 million tons, with imports of 2.67 million tons and exports of 0.14 million tons [27]. - This week, the downstream开工 was under pressure. Traders replenished less inventory, the orders for galvanized pipes were few, and the demand for galvanized structural parts weakened in the off - season [28][31][35]. - The domestic zinc ingot spot inventory increased this week, the inventory in Shanghai Free Trade Zone decreased, and the LME zinc inventory continued to decrease [37][38]. - Last week, the new - home sales in 10 key cities increased week - on - week but decreased year - on - year, while the second - hand home sales increased both week - on - week and year - on - year [44][45]. - In June, the production plan of household air conditioners was 20.5 million units, a 11.5% increase compared to the actual performance of the same period last year; the production plan of refrigerators was 7.9 million units, a 3.6% increase; the production plan of washing machines was 6.75 million units, the same as the actual performance of the same period last year; from June 1 - 15, the retail sales of new - energy passenger vehicles in the national market increased by 38% year - on - year; and the domestic photovoltaic module production continued to decrease in June [49][51][54][59].
