The open interest decreased by 18,097 lots to 76,908 lots. The price of SMM N-type polysilicon material rose to 36,000 yuan/ton, and the price of the lowest deliverable N-type polysilicon material also rose to 36,000 yuan/ton. The spot premium over the main contract remained stable at 950 yuan/ton. Industrial silicon showed a volatile and slightly weaker trend. The main contract 2509 closed at 8,010 yuan/ton, with an intraday decrease of 0.93%. The open interest decreased by 5,521 lots to 381,000 lots.

The price of the lowest deliverable 553 silicon rose to 8,150 yuan/ton, and the spot premium widened to 165 yuan/ton [2]. - The latest industry meeting put forward more requirements to prevent "involutionary" vicious competition in the industry, and the implementation of polysilicon production cuts is expected to speed up. Previously, there were news of large-scale production cuts at industrial silicon plants in Xinjiang. Industrial silicon drove polysilicon to rebound upwards. Due to the previous oversold situation, the recovery power of polysilicon was stronger than that of industrial silicon. Recently, there have been frequent news in the polysilicon industry, and the trading logic has gradually shifted to polysilicon leading the rise of industrial silicon [2]. - Currently, the high inventory pressure has not been resolved, and there has been no actual improvement in the fundamentals of the two silicons. The news has increased the volatility of the market. It is recommended that investors be cautious and continuously pay attention to the price ratio of the two silicons, track inventory inflection points, and policy trends [2].

The impact of the rainy season in Guinea is expected to gradually emerge. The average weekly outbound volume in the 4th week of May was 3.54 million tons/week, and in the 4th week of June, it was 3.32 million tons/week, a decrease of 220,000 tons/week. In June, the PMI composite index of the aluminum processing industry was 40.1%, falling below the boom - bust line, a decrease of 9.7 percentage points month - on - month and 1.5% year - on - year. As of June 30, the inventory of electrolytic aluminum ingots in the main domestic consumption areas was 468,000 tons, an increase of 5,000 tons from last Thursday and 4,000 tons from last Monday. Due to the increase in the overall supply of aluminum ingots in late June and the high price of aluminum inhibiting consumption and outbound performance, inventory accumulation occurred as expected. In early July, with the expected slight increase in the ingot - casting volume in some provinces, inventory may continue to increase steadily. [9] - View: Macro uncertainty remains high. Low inventory provides support but there are signs of inventory accumulation. Prices are expected to move within a range in the short term. Follow - up attention should be paid to the development of news and the transition of downstream off - season. [9] Zinc - Logic: Last week, zinc prices were strong. The macro - market sentiment improved due to macro - easing, and the expectation of interest rate cuts also supported the upward movement of LME zinc. There was a strike by workers at a zinc smelter in Peru, and overseas inventories have been declining recently, which brought uncertainty to the supply side and drove prices up. The operating rate of zinc oxide enterprises was 58.72%, a decrease of 0.28% month - on - month. The procurement of zinc oxide enterprises decreased due to the rising zinc price and weakening downstream consumption, and the raw material inventory decreased while the finished product inventory increased. The operating rate of die - casting zinc alloy enterprises was 46.54%, a decrease of 8.58 percentage points month - on - month. Due to the rising zinc price, enterprise procurement willingness was low, and the raw material inventory decreased. Due to weakening downstream consumption and high prices, the outbound volume of die - casting zinc alloy enterprises decreased, and the finished product inventory increased. As of June 30, the total inventory of zinc ingots in SMM's seven regions was 80,600 tons, an increase of 2,800 tons from June 23 and 1,100 tons from June 26. [10] - View: Zinc supply disruptions boost short - term prices, but medium - to long - term supply increases will put pressure on prices. Attention should be paid to the development of news. [10] Tin - Logic: Overseas supply remains tight, domestic smelting enterprise inventories are low, and the operating rate has decreased. Although future supply is expected to be loose, short - term supply tightness continues to support tin prices. Downstream demand has not changed much, but there are signs of slowing growth in sectors such as semiconductors, automobiles, and home appliances, which may put some pressure on tin. [11] - View: Prices are expected to be volatile and strong in the short term, but downward pressure will increase in the medium term. [11] 03 Variety Data Aluminum - Bauxite: The price of domestic high - grade bauxite in Henan remained unchanged at 640 yuan/ton from June 20 to June 27, up 15 year - on - year; the price of domestic low - grade bauxite in Henan remained unchanged at 570 yuan/ton, up 30 year - on - year; the average import bauxite price index was 74.21 US dollars/ton on June 27, a decrease of 0.22 from June 20 and an increase of 2.04 year - on - year.

Group 1: Report Core View - The short - term coking coal and coke may continue the volatile and upward trend as recent coal mine production cuts and import volume reduction have alleviated the pressure of oversupply to some extent, and the upstream coal mines have seen an inventory inflection point [4] Group 2: Market Conditions Summary - Last week, coking coal and coke futures prices showed a volatile rebound trend. On the spot side, coke remained stable after four rounds of price cuts, and the coking coal market maintained a weak and stable operation [3] - Due to safety reasons, there were regional and group - based coal mine production cuts and shutdowns in coal mines in Changzhi Qinyuan and Linfen, Shanxi last week, leading to a significant decline in production and a shortage of resources such as lean coal and lean coking coal. The coal prices in the local area rebounded under the drive of the rigid replenishment demand of downstream coking and steel enterprises. In addition, environmental inspections in Wuhai, Inner Mongolia remained strict, and surrounding open - pit coal mines shut down voluntarily [3] - Steel mills maintained a high operating rate, and the rigid demand for raw materials was good [3] Group 3: Production and Inventory Data - Last week, the daily output of raw coal in coal mines was 1.85 million tons, a week - on - week decrease of 45,000 tons and a year - on - year decrease of 203,000 tons; the daily output of clean coal was 738,000 tons, a week - on - week decrease of 5,000 tons and a year - on - year decrease of 35,000 tons [4] - The raw coal inventory was 6.835 million tons, a month - on - month decrease of 179,000 tons; the clean coal inventory was 4.631 million tons, a month - on - month decrease of 361,000 tons [4]

1. Report's Industry Investment Rating - Not provided in the content 2. Core Viewpoints of the Report - Aluminum: The current situation remains strong, and the market is waiting for confirmation of the inventory inflection point. The high premium and low inventory situation persists, and the impact of pre - emptive export demand on subsequent demand needs dynamic observation. Attention should be paid to inventory changes and export shipping capacity. From a micro - fundamental perspective, aluminum ingot social inventory continues to decline, and downstream production and processing profits are under pressure [3]. - Alumina: It is in a dilemma of continuous复产 but low inventory. The disk is slightly supported due to tight warrant supplies. The market expects the inventory inflection point to be approaching, but inventory data from different sources shows divergence. The current price valuation is a key factor in the long - short game [4]. 3.
