Report Industry Investment Rating - Copper: Cautiously bullish [9] - Arbitrage: On hold [9] - Options: short put @ 83,000 yuan/ton [9] Core View of the Report The copper price strengthened during the National Day due to the resumption of the Fed's interest - rate cut cycle and frequent mine - end disturbances. However, the processing fee of - 40 dollars/ton already reflects the tightening of mine - end resources, so the short - term price increase caused by mine - end disturbances may not be sustainable.
