Core Viewpoint - The article discusses the contrasting performance of A-shares and Hong Kong stocks during the current bull market, highlighting the dominance of domestic investors in A-shares and the influence of external liquidity and local market conditions on Hong Kong stocks [2][10]. Group 1: A-shares vs. Hong Kong Stocks - A-shares are primarily driven by domestic investors, particularly public and private funds, who are highly sensitive to policy information and favor "industry tracks" with high visibility [2]. - In contrast, Hong Kong stocks have seen significant price increases in certain assets, referred to as the "three sisters," with notable price surges: Old Poo Gold's stock price increased 11 times, Pop Mart rose 617%, and Mixue Group saw a maximum increase of 165% [3][4]. Group 2: Market Dynamics - The surge in these assets has amplified market sentiment, contributing to a 40% increase in the Hang Seng Index, which rose from around 17,000 to 24,800 points, with trading volume tripling [4]. - However, the "three sisters" share a common trait of concentrated liquidity and sentiment-driven trading, leading to rapid corrections once sentiment wanes [5][6]. Group 3: Liquidity Factors - Despite global liquidity improvements, Hong Kong stocks have struggled due to tightening local liquidity conditions, particularly as the overnight Hibor rate surged, indicating a decrease in market liquidity [10][18]. - The relationship between the Hang Seng Index and U.S. Treasury yields is highlighted, with the index typically responding inversely to changes in U.S. interest rates [11][13]. Group 4: Economic Fundamentals - The article emphasizes that global liquidity improvements do not necessarily equate to a recovery in risk appetite, as market confidence ultimately hinges on economic fundamentals [22][23]. - Recent trends show a marginal improvement in Hong Kong's corporate earnings, with a decrease in the rate of decline in net profits for the Hang Seng Index from a 7.2% drop in 2024 to a 1.4% decline in Q1 2025 [23][24]. Group 5: Future Outlook - The article suggests that the key factors influencing the future of Hong Kong stocks include the improvement of economic fundamentals and the establishment of a more accommodative liquidity environment [30][32]. - The potential for a more favorable liquidity situation is contingent upon the confirmation of a U.S. Federal Reserve rate-cutting cycle, which could lead to a decrease in local funding costs and an increase in market liquidity [33].

1. Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant information provided. 2. Core Viewpoints of the Report - The steel demand has officially entered the off - season, there is still a risk of hot - rolled coil inventory, and future attention should be paid to the production reduction rhythm. With the gradual implementation of the Fed's easing expectations and positive signals from the China - US meeting, the market sentiment and capital environment are expected to improve. The steel consumption side may gradually recover in the future. In the short term, due to the impact of the cost side, the price center of finished products has slightly declined, and the demand is still weak, with prices continuing the weak and volatile trend. However, with the implementation of policies and changes in the macro - environment, future demand is expected to reach an inflection point [2]. - For iron ore, high inventory still suppresses the price. In the short term, the rebound in hot - metal production supports the demand for iron ore on the margin. In the macro vacuum period, the futures price is likely to follow the real - world logic, and the iron ore fundamentals are weak. The short - term ore price will operate within the shock range, with the lower limit between 750 - 760 yuan/ton [5]. - For the black sector, it is considered that looking for a callback position to do a rebound may have a higher cost - performance ratio than continuing to short. The subsequent overseas situation will be a definite situation of both fiscal and monetary easing, and domestic demand - stimulating policies are still expected. For manganese silicon, pay attention to the manganese ore end; for silicon iron, its operability is relatively low [10]. - For industrial silicon, the supply and demand are both weak, and the cost support is temporarily stable. It is expected that the price will consolidate and wait for new drivers [13]. - For polysilicon, with a significant reduction in supply, the supply - demand pattern may improve marginally, but the short - term de - stocking amplitude is expected to be limited. Be cautious about the authenticity of long and short news [16]. - For glass, the current market has limited positive factors, and the short - term rebound momentum is insufficient with limited upside space [19]. - For soda ash, the current supply is relatively high, and the downstream demand is average. The short - term price will continue the low - level shock pattern [21]. 3. Summary According to Related Catalogs Steel Market Information - The closing price of the rebar main contract was 3046 yuan/ton, up 8 yuan/ton (0.263%) from the previous trading day. The registered warehouse receipts decreased by 5166 tons to 90327 tons, and the main contract positions decreased by 10693 lots to 1.857343 million lots. The Tianjin aggregated price of rebar was 3210 yuan/ton, unchanged, and the Shanghai aggregated price was 3200 yuan/ton, up 10 yuan/ton [1]. - The closing price of the hot - rolled coil main contract was 3254 yuan/ton, down 1 yuan/ton (- 0.03%) from the previous trading day.

The aggregated price of hot - rolled coils in Lecong and Shanghai was 3270 yuan/ton, unchanged [1]. Strategy Views - Rebar supply and demand both declined, inventory continued to decline, and the overall performance was neutral. Hot - rolled coils had weak demand, could not absorb the production, and the inventory showed a counter - seasonal accumulation. Overall, steel demand has entered the off - season, and there is still a risk of hot - rolled coil inventory. Future attention should be paid to the production reduction rhythm [2]. Iron Ore Market Information - The main iron ore contract (I2601) closed at 772.50 yuan/ton, with a change of - 0.19% (- 1.50), and the positions decreased by 7106 lots to 494,100 lots. The weighted positions were 910,700 lots. The spot price of PB powder at Qingdao Port was 782 yuan/wet ton, with a basis of 58.73 yuan/ton and a basis ratio of 7.07% [4]. - The Simandou iron ore project was officially put into production on November 11, but it will take time to reach full production, and the increase is expected to be limited this year [4]. Strategy Views - On the supply side, the overseas iron ore shipment volume continued to decline. The shipments from Australia and Brazil decreased, and Vale and Rio Tinto contributed to the reduction. The shipments from non - mainstream countries increased, and the near - end arrivals decreased. On the demand side, the daily average hot - metal production was 236.88 tons, up 2.66 tons. The increase mainly came from Hebei, with an increase in the utilization rate of some blast furnace capacities. The steel mill profitability continued to decline, and some regional steel mills started blast furnace annual inspections due to losses. The port inventory continued to increase, and the steel mill inventory increased slightly. The terminal data was weak. High inventory still suppresses the price, and the short - term rebound in hot - metal production supports the demand for iron ore on the margin [5]. Manganese Silicon and Silicon Iron Market Information - On November 13, the main manganese silicon contract (SM601) closed down 0.10% at 5756 yuan/ton. The spot price of 6517 manganese silicon in Tianjin was 5700 yuan/ton, with a discount to the futures price of 5890 yuan/ton, unchanged from the previous day, and a premium to the futures price of 134 yuan/ton [7]. - The main silicon iron contract (SF601) closed up 0.29% at 5506 yuan/ton. The spot price of 72 silicon iron in Tianjin was 5500 yuan/ton, unchanged from the previous day, and a discount to the futures price of 6 yuan/ton [8]. Strategy Views - In November, the macro environment entered a relative vacuum period, and the pricing of the black sector returned to the fundamentals. The market was trying a "negative feedback" trading in the black sector, but it was considered a temporary shock and emotional release with limited downside space. For the black sector, it is more cost - effective to look for a callback position to do a rebound. For manganese silicon, pay attention to the manganese ore end; for silicon iron, its operability is relatively low [9][10]. Industrial Silicon and Polysilicon Market Information - The main industrial silicon contract (SI2601) closed at 9145 yuan/ton, with a change of - 0.54% (- 50). The weighted positions increased by 6269 lots to 418,415 lots.

The weighted positions increased by 2397 lots to 237,112 lots. The average price of N - type granular silicon was 50.5 yuan/kg, the average price of N - type dense material was 51 yuan/kg, and the average price of N - type re - feeding material was 52.15 yuan/kg, all unchanged. The basis of the main contract was - 2045 yuan/ton [15]. Strategy Views - For industrial silicon, in October, the production continued to increase. In November, the production in the southwest is expected to decline. The demand for polysilicon decreased, and the organic silicon production is expected to be stable. The supply and demand are both weak, and the price is expected to consolidate [13]. - For polysilicon, in November, some production capacities started maintenance, and the production is expected to decline in the last two months. The downstream silicon wafer production is also expected to decline. The supply - demand pattern may improve marginally, but the short - term de - stocking amplitude is expected to be limited [16]. Glass and Soda Ash Market Information - The glass main contract closed at 1056 yuan/ton, up 0 + 0.67% (+ 7). The North China large - plate price was 1110 yuan, unchanged; the Central China price was 1140 yuan, unchanged.

The weekly inventory of soda ash sample enterprises was 1.7073 million tons, down 0.69 million tons (- 0.18%), including 907,100 tons of heavy - alkali inventory, up 75,000 tons, and 800,200 tons of light - alkali inventory, down 144,000 tons. The top 20 long - position holders increased 21,477 long positions, and the top 20 short - position holders reduced 16,961 short positions [20]. Strategy Views - For glass, the current market has limited positive factors, the downstream support is insufficient, the production enterprise shipment pressure increases, and the short - term rebound momentum is insufficient with limited upside space [19]. - For soda ash, the current supply is relatively high, the downstream demand is average, especially the consumption of heavy - alkali is weak. Due to the industry - wide losses, some enterprises have a stronger willingness to support prices. The short - term price will continue the low - level shock pattern [21].

Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant information provided. Core View of the Report - The natural rubber futures market is expected to experience range - bound trading in the short term due to the multi - factor game on the fundamentals. The macro market's positive news has been realized, dragging down the rubber price center, and the decline of synthetic rubber will also affect the natural rubber price. Although the supply side has some support, there is an expectation of increased supply later. The terminal consumption shows fair performance, but demand lacks remarkable highlights. The natural rubber inventory is continuously decreasing, but the decline rate is slowing down [8][9][89]. Summary by Related Directory Price Analysis Futures Price - Last week, the price of the main natural rubber contract RU2601 ranged from 15,030 to 15,670 yuan/ton, showing a trend of rising first and then falling, with an overall slight decline.

As of October 31, 2025, the arrival price of natural rubber in Qingdao was 2,040 US dollars/ton, down 20 US dollars/ton from last week [20][23]. Basis and Spread - Using the spot quotation of Shanghai Yunnan state - owned whole latex (SCRWF) as the spot reference price and the futures price of the main natural rubber contract as the futures reference price, the basis between the two expanded slightly compared with last week. As of October 30, 2025, the basis was maintained at - 600 yuan/ton, an increase of 15 yuan/ton from last week. As of October 31, 2025, both the domestic and foreign prices of natural rubber declined slightly compared with last week [27][30]. Important Market Information - There were multiple significant events including the China - US leaders' meeting, China - US economic and trade consultations, Fed's interest rate cut, statements from the US Treasury Secretary, and economic data releases from various countries. For example, the Fed cut interest rates by 25 basis points, the US consumer confidence index declined, and China's automobile and heavy - truck sales showed growth [31][33][36]. Supply - side Situation - As of August 31, 2025, among the main natural rubber producing countries, the production in Thailand, Indonesia, and Malaysia decreased slightly compared with the previous month, while that in India, Vietnam, and China increased.

Fundamental Analysis - Supply: The global natural rubber producing areas are in the peak supply season. Recently, the main producing areas at home and abroad have been affected by weather, with high raw material procurement prices last week, providing strong short - term support. However, as the rainfall in some main producing areas decreases, there is an expectation of increased supply. In September 2025, China's imports of natural and synthetic rubber totaled 742,000 tons, a 11.7% month - on - month and 20.8% year - on - year increase. From January to September, the cumulative imports increased significantly. - Demand: Last week, the tire enterprises'开工 rates declined slightly. The inventory accumulation trend of all - steel tires reversed, and semi - steel tires had a slight inventory reduction. In September, China's automobile production and sales increased year - on - year and month - on - month, and the monthly sales of heavy trucks increased significantly year - on - year. The export volume of rubber tires in the first nine months increased slightly year - on - year. - Inventory: Last week, the inventory on the Shanghai Futures Exchange decreased slightly, and the social inventory and Qingdao's total inventory of natural rubber continued to decline slightly [87]. 后市展望 - The short - term trend of the natural rubber futures market is expected to be range - bound. The supply side has short - term support but an expectation of increased supply later. The demand side has fair performance but lacks highlights, and the inventory is decreasing with a slowing decline rate. Key factors to watch include China - US trade relations, anti - dumping policies in Europe and the US, weather in rubber - producing areas, terminal demand changes, and zero - tariff policy progress [89][90]. 观点及操作策略 - This week's view: The main natural rubber futures contract is expected to maintain range - bound trading in the short term. - Operation strategy: For single - side trading, stay on the sidelines, and aggressive investors can consider buying on dips; for arbitrage and options, stay on the sidelines for now [91][92].

Report Industry Investment Rating - The mid - term outlook for the industry is "Oscillation" [6] Core Viewpoints - The Fed's interest rate cut and the easing of Sino - US trade frictions continue to boost market sentiment, but the differentiation of fundamentals leads to different price performances of sector varieties. The supply - demand of coal and coke remains balanced with high - level price oscillation, while high inventories of steel and continuous inventory accumulation of iron ore lead to price declines [1][2]. - The marginal weakening of the supply - demand pattern is the main feature of the later fundamental situation, which still poses upward resistance to the prices of some sector varieties. At the same time, there is still a possibility of positive news from the macro and policy levels. It is recommended to seize the upward opportunities under favorable macro and policy conditions [6]. Summary by Relevant Catalogs Iron Element - Iron ore: The weekly molten iron output has decreased as expected. The weakening of steel mill profitability and the start of the off - season will limit the recovery space of molten iron after the end of environmental protection restrictions. Iron ore arrivals are expected to recover, and inventory is expected to increase marginally. The fundamentals are marginally weakening, but overall contradictions are not prominent. Macro expectations and market sentiment dominate, and short - term prices are expected to oscillate [2]. - Scrap steel: The supply and demand of scrap steel both decline, and the fundamental contradictions are not prominent. Recently, the finished product data has slightly improved, and the downward driving force of scrap steel is limited. It is expected that the short - term scrap steel price will mainly follow the finished products [2][10]. Carbon Element - Coke: Under environmental protection restrictions, the demand for coke is temporarily tightened, but the overall supply - demand contradiction is not large. With the continuous increase in raw coal prices, coke has started three rounds of price increases. However, although the finished product prices have slightly recovered recently, steel mill profits are still under pressure, and the game between steel and coke continues. It is expected that the coke price will oscillate [2][12]. - Coking coal: The supply of coking coal is difficult to improve. With continuous procurement from the middle and lower reaches, the coal mine inventory has dropped to a recent low. The short - term fundamentals are healthy. It is expected that the short - term coking coal price will oscillate, waiting for further macro and policy boosts [2][13]. Alloys - Manganese silicon: The short - term cost is stable, and the high output of steel supports the price. However, the market supply - demand expectation is pessimistic, and the driving force for the price increase of manganese silicon is insufficient [3]. - Ferrosilicon: The high output of finished products and the firm cost support the ferrosilicon price in the short term. However, the market supply - demand relationship is relatively loose, and the upward price space is limited [3]. Glass and Soda Ash - Glass: Some manufacturers are trying to support the price by raising the spot price. Attention should be paid to whether the price increase is implemented and the sales situation after implementation. If the sales remain weak, the price will return to a weak oscillation. In the medium and long term, market - oriented capacity reduction is still needed, and the price may continue to oscillate downward [3][14]. - Soda ash: The supply - surplus pattern remains unchanged. It is expected that the price will follow the macro fluctuations and oscillate widely in the future. In the long term, the price center of gravity will still move down to promote capacity reduction [3][16]. Specific Varieties - Steel: The macro sentiment is volatile, and the futures price is under pressure to decline. The spot market trading is generally weak, and the market sentiment has deteriorated. The fundamentals are improving, but the inventory level is still higher than the same period last year. It is expected that the short - term futures price will be under pressure, and attention should be paid to macro policy disturbances [8]. - Iron ore: The molten iron output has decreased significantly, and the inventory has increased month - on - month. The spot price has weakened. The fundamentals are marginally weakening, but overall contradictions are not large. Macro expectations and market sentiment dominate, and short - term prices are expected to oscillate [8][9]. - Scrap steel: The arrival volume has decreased slightly, and the price is oscillating. The supply and demand of scrap steel both decline, and the fundamentals have no prominent contradictions. It is expected that the short - term price will follow the finished products [10]. - Coke: The supply has slightly increased, and the demand is temporarily tightened. The overall supply - demand contradiction is not large, and the price is expected to oscillate [11][12]. - Coking coal: The supply is difficult to increase, and coal mines continue to reduce inventory. The short - term fundamentals are healthy, and the price is expected to oscillate [13]. - Glass: Manufacturers are trying to support the price by raising the spot price. Attention should be paid to the implementation of the price increase and the sales situation. If the sales are weak, the price will return to a weak oscillation. In the long term, the price is expected to oscillate downward [14]. - Soda ash: After the supply recovery, manufacturers have returned to the inventory accumulation state. The supply - surplus pattern remains unchanged. It is expected that the price will follow the macro fluctuations and oscillate widely, and the long - term price center of gravity will move down [16]. - Manganese silicon: The driving force for price increase is insufficient, and the futures price is oscillating. The short - term cost is stable, and the high steel output supports the price, but the market supply - demand expectation is pessimistic [17]. - Ferrosilicon: The supply - demand relationship is still loose, and there is pressure above the futures price. The high output of finished products and the firm cost support the price in the short term, but the supply - demand relationship is relatively loose [18].
