Core Viewpoint - The domestic steel market in January 2026 exhibited a fluctuating trend characterized by an initial rise followed by a decline, influenced by macro policy expectations, seasonal demand effects, and weak market transactions [10][11]. January Market Review - The overall steel price in January showed a pattern of "initial bottoming and recovery, followed by high-level decline, and a low-level rebound before another drop," with a core operating range of 3085-3198 yuan/ton [11]. - The first phase (January 5-7) saw a weak bottoming trend due to seasonal demand shrinkage and cautious winter storage intentions from traders, leading to a weak supply-demand dynamic [11]. - The second phase (January 8-21) experienced high-level fluctuations with no clear trend, as the market faced increasing supply-demand contradictions and inventory accumulation [12]. - The third phase (January 22-30) marked a low-level rebound driven by strengthening cost support and marginal improvements in market sentiment, although the overall weak supply-demand situation persisted [13]. February Steel Price Outlook - February is expected to be influenced by traditional holiday effects, with positive expectations for policy benefits from the March meetings providing support for the steel market [14]. - The central bank's announcement of a comprehensive monetary policy package, including potential rate cuts, lays a foundation for macro expectations, although immediate impacts on February are limited [14]. - The industry anticipates increased inventory pressure in February, with a significant reduction in demand before the holiday, which may suppress steel prices [14]. - Overall, February is projected to see a limited increase in prices, with expectations of a narrow fluctuation before the holiday and potential price increases afterward [14]. Operational Recommendations - Steel prices should be approached cautiously, with opportunities for minor replenishment only when prices return to undervalued zones, while profits can be gradually realized [15].

In the short - term, the oil price rebounds due to geopolitical disturbances, but is under pressure in the long - term. The supply is stable, and the downstream chemical demand is weak with inventory accumulation [12] - **Strategy Recommendation**: In the medium - to - long - term, the price has room for further compression as the upstream crude oil supply exceeds demand. In the short - term, the cost - side oil price is uncertain. The range for PG is [4300 - 4400] [13] L - **Market Performance**: The L05 contract price decreased by 0.5%. The L05 basis was - 174 yuan/ton, and the L59 spread was - 55 yuan/ton [15][16] - **Basic Logic**: The inventory of Sinopec and PetroChina has dropped to a low level in the same period.

Core Viewpoint - The recent decline in tin prices is driven by a combination of macroeconomic pressures, weak demand recovery, and rising inventory levels, leading to a bearish sentiment in the market [2][3][4]. Group 1: Macroeconomic Factors - The US dollar index has seen significant gains, creating a strong currency environment that diminishes the attractiveness of dollar-denominated commodities like tin [2]. - The US stock market is experiencing heightened risk aversion, particularly affecting technology stocks, which has negatively impacted market confidence in downstream demand for tin in electronics and AI hardware [2]. - Hawkish signals from the Federal Reserve and unexpected inflation data have reversed optimistic expectations for interest rate cuts, leading to a tightening of liquidity support [2]. Group 2: Supply Dynamics - There is a clear expectation of a shift from tight to loose global supply conditions, primarily driven by steady recovery in Myanmar's Wa region and ongoing releases of legal production capacity in Indonesia [3]. - Global visible tin inventories have surged significantly from their lows, raising concerns about oversupply and putting downward pressure on prices [3]. Group 3: Demand Challenges - The traditional consumption sectors, which constitute the majority of tin demand, remain sluggish, with no strong signs of recovery in electronic solder, home appliances, and real estate-related tin chemical demand [4]. - Although emerging sectors like photovoltaics and AI servers show long-term resilience, their current share of total demand is still small, making it difficult to offset declines in traditional sectors [4]. - High historical tin prices have suppressed actual purchasing intentions among downstream users, leading to low inventory levels and weak support in the spot market [4]. Group 4: Industry Profitability - The profit distribution within the tin industry is increasingly skewed towards upstream resource providers, who are benefiting from their scarcity [5]. - As expectations for increased tin supply rise, the scarcity premium for upstream resources is likely to face downward pressure [5]. - Midstream smelting operations, primarily dominated by China, are stable but face rising environmental costs, while downstream processing enterprises are struggling with weak orders and high raw material costs [5]. Group 5: Market Sentiment - The sharp decline in futures prices has led to a collapse in trading sentiment in the spot market, with traders opting for aggressive selling to avoid further losses [6]. - Downstream processing companies are maintaining minimal purchasing levels due to weak end-user demand and a strong wait-and-see attitude, resulting in a lack of buying interest [7]. - The market is characterized by a "strong selling but weak buying" dynamic, indicating a challenging short-term trading atmosphere [7]. Group 6: Short-term Outlook - Tin prices are expected to continue fluctuating as they seek a bottom, with investors advised to monitor developments in Myanmar's production recovery, the Federal Reserve's March meeting, domestic consumption trends, and global inventory depletion rates [8].
