Report Summary of Iron Ore Daily by Guantong Futures 1. Report's Industry Investment Rating No information provided regarding the report's industry investment rating. 2. Core Viewpoints - The iron ore fundamentals show a decrease in arrivals, alleviating supply pressure. The demand side has stable rigid demand, and although ports are still accumulating inventory, it is gradually shifting to downstream steel mills. The fundamental contradictions are not prominent, but the futures contracts present a back structure and a futures discount under a positive basis. After a short - term breakdown, it shows a certain weakness [4]. 3. Summary by Relevant Catalogs Market行情态势回顾 - **Futures Prices**: The main contract of iron ore futures maintained a weak downward trend, closing at 760.5 yuan/ton, down 8 yuan/ton or 1.04% from the previous day's closing price. The trading volume was 216,000 lots, the open interest was 515,000 lots, and the settled funds were 8.612 billion yuan. After the breakdown, it remained weak, with attention on further tests around 750 [1]. - **Spot Prices**: The mainstream spot varieties at Qingdao Port, PB powder, dropped 2 to 770 yuan/ton, and Super Special powder dropped 2 to 665 yuan/ton. The main swap was at 99.3 (-1.3) US dollars/ton. Spot and swap prices declined slightly [1]. - **Basis and Spread**: The price of Qingdao Port PB powder converted to the futures price was 807.2 yuan/ton, with a basis of 46.7 yuan/ton, showing little change. The iron ore 5 - 9 spread was 18 yuan, and the 9 - 1 spread was 10 yuan. Iron ore was slightly weak in the short - term [1]. Fundamental Analysis - Overseas mine shipments increased month - on - month, mainly due to the obvious recovery in Brazilian shipments. The arrivals continued to decline, as the previous drop in shipments was reflected in arrivals. There were expectations of supply disruptions due to weather. On the demand side, the molten iron output decreased slightly month - on - month, the steel mill profitability weakened, and the rigid demand was stable. As the Spring Festival approached, steel mills accelerated restocking, and as restocking progressed, the support for prices might gradually weaken. In terms of inventory, ports continued to accumulate inventory, the inventory at berth decreased, and steel mill inventories increased significantly. The total inventory pressure was still building up. Market sentiment weakened, and both futures and spot prices were under pressure [2]. Macro - level Analysis - **Domestic**: The positive policy expectation continues as the macro - mainline, and the expectation of policy intensification in the first quarter to achieve an economic "good start" in the first year of the "15th Five - Year Plan" is strengthening. The overall policy environment is favorable, which is one of the core logics for being bullish on risk assets in the first quarter [3]. - **Overseas**: One of the core variables in overseas macro this week is that Kevin Warsh was nominated as a candidate for the new Federal Reserve Chairman, but the impact on the market is expected to be limited. His monetary policy stance is "supporting interest rate cuts but advocating balance - sheet reduction", so he is considered a hawkish figure. In addition to monetary policy, investors are also advised to pay attention to the two high - uncertainty risk events of the US - Iran situation and the US government shutdown [3].

1. Report Industry Investment Rating No information provided in the content. 2. Core Viewpoints of the Report - The current 10Y - 1Y and 30Y - 10Y spreads are continuously widening, reaching a ten - year high. The report analyzes the driving mechanisms and characteristics of these two key spreads, revealing the differences in dominant forces and structural change trends of different term spreads [1]. - In 2026, the steepening of the yield curve will continue, and the 10Y - 1Y and 30Y - 10Y spreads will generally widen marginally. The 10Y - 1Y spread will be steepened by monetary easing and may widen, while the 30Y - 10Y spread will be repaired by supply and rise in an oscillatory manner [3][4]. 3. Summary According to the Directory 3.1 10Y - 1Y Spread: Short - end Dominant, Long - end Amplifying - **Driving Factors: Policy Anchor, Growth Expectation, and Supply - demand Structure** - The 10Y - 1Y spread reflects the relative changes among short - term policy interest rates, medium - and long - term growth and inflation, and bond supply - demand structure. Short - term interest rates are more sensitive to monetary policy and the money market, while long - term interest rates reflect future growth trends, inflation expectations, and economic cycle changes. Bond supply - demand structure differences and investor behavior also affect the spread [9]. - **Pricing Logic: A Stable Negative Dynamic Equilibrium Relationship between 1Y and 10Y - 1Y** - Short - term interest rates determine the core direction of the 10Y - 1Y spread. After removing the influence of interest rate central migration, the 1 - year Treasury yield and the spread show a clear negative correlation. Long - term interest rates have a limited and unstable impact on the 10Y - 1Y spread [10][13]. - **Periodic Deviation: Structural Disturbance under Short - end Dominance** - The short - term interest rate and the 10Y - 1Y spread generally show a strong negative correlation, but there are also periodic changes in their correlation during the interest rate central switching stage. The 1 - year yield dominates the spread direction, and the negative correlation between the spread and the 1 - year yield may deviate or weaken in the short term. The correlation between the spread and the 10 - year Treasury yield is weak [17]. 3.2 30Y - 10Y Spread: The Dominance Shifting to the Ultra - long End, Spread Repricing - **Driving Factors of the 30Y - 10Y Spread: Differentiation in Supply - demand, Expectation, and Term Sensitivity** - The 30Y - 10Y spread reflects the differences in supply - demand structure, long - term expectations, and policy sensitivity between long - term and medium - long - term Treasuries. Its core drivers include supply - demand structure differences, differences in long - term economic growth and inflation expectations, and the impact of policy uncertainty and term sensitivity differences [25]. - **Core Pricing Logic: The Ultra - long End is Becoming the Dominant Force of the Spread** - The correlation between the 10 - year Treasury yield and the 30Y - 10Y spread is generally weak. The 30 - year Treasury yield has a more stable positive linkage with the spread, indicating that the ultra - long - end interest rate is playing an increasingly prominent role in driving the 30Y - 10Y spread [26][27]. - **Stage Switching: Multiple Combination Forms of Interest Rate Central Changes** - The pricing center of the 30Y - 10Y spread is gradually shifting to the ultra - long end. In different macro - economic and policy environments, the spread may show multiple combination forms, and the mid - term trend shows that the ultra - long end is gradually becoming the core anchor of spread pricing [34][43]. 3.3 Outlook: The Steepening of the Curve Continues, and the Double Spreads Widen - **10Y - 1Y Spread: Steepened by Easing, May Widen** - In the first half of 2026, the 10Y - 1Y spread may widen. The strengthening of the interest rate cut expectation will lower the short - term interest rate, and the front - loaded fiscal policy will increase the supply pressure, with the long - term pressure being higher [44][45]. - **30Y - 10Y Spread: Repaired by Supply, Rise in an Oscillatory Manner** - In 2026, the supply premium will replace the liquidity premium as the dominant factor of the 30Y - 10Y spread. In the first half of 2026, the 30Y - 10Y spread will remain high and oscillate, and the center may widen further [46].
