The main contract 2508 rose 0.42% to 20,475. The total index open interest decreased by 7,771 to 628,056 lots, and the 08 - 09 spread was 40 [8]. - Market Transaction: After the price decline, market trading improved, but due to the off - season, substantial improvement in downstream purchases was difficult. The premium and discount fluctuated, with a premium of 90 in East China, a discount of - 50 in Central China, and a premium of 80 in South China [8]. - Cast Aluminum Alloy: Cast aluminum alloy fluctuated narrowly with SHFE aluminum. The 2511 contract closed up 0.23% at 19,820, and the AD - AL negative spread was - 475. In the off - season of the automotive industry, with weak demand and raw material shortages, cast aluminum is expected to continue to fluctuate, maintaining a low - level negative spread [8]. - Supply and Demand of Electrolytic Aluminum: Domestic electrolytic aluminum operating capacity remained high but decreased slightly due to capacity replacement. Downstream开工率 was weak due to the off - season, high aluminum prices, and high temperatures. Inventory increased at the beginning of the week, and although there was destocking recently, it is expected to accumulate further. High - level short - selling hedging is recommended [8]. Group 3: Industry News - China's June Aluminum Production: In June 2025, China's primary aluminum (electrolytic aluminum) production was 3.81 million tons, a year - on - year increase of 3.4%. Production decreased slightly month - on - month due to the start of the second - phase electrolytic aluminum replacement from Shandong to Yunnan [9]. - July Operating Capacity: In July, domestic electrolytic aluminum operating capacity remained high. The second - batch replacement project in Yunnan was put into operation, and the industry开工率 rebounded [9]. - Real Estate Policy: The Ministry of Housing and Urban - Rural Development emphasized promoting the stable, healthy, and high - quality development of the real estate market, and local governments should use policy autonomy to implement targeted measures [10]. - US Aluminum Company: Alcoa's San Ciprián aluminum smelter in Spain is expected to restart in mid - 2026, with an expected loss of up to $110 million due to a power outage. The restart was postponed but has now resumed [10]

Report Summary 1. Report Industry Investment Rating - Not provided in the content 2. Core Viewpoints - On July 9, 2025, the coking coal futures price rose. Supply tightened due to safety inspections in major production areas, potential closure of the production - capacity replacement window, and the implementation of the Mineral Resources Law. Demand increased during the "peak - summer" period. This may raise steel production costs and steel prices, and attract more funds to the coal industry. Investors should seize the opportunity to buy on dips [3]. - In the stock market, the overall situation is that the Shanghai Composite Index had a good performance with an opening - low and closing - high trend, while the Shenzhen Component Index and the ChiNext Index had minor fluctuations. The market is expected to continue high - level oscillations [7][8]. - For gold, although there was an adjustment due to the Fed's decision not to cut interest rates and reduced expectations of rate cuts this year, the long - term upward trend remains. It has adjusted to an important support level, and investors can buy on dips [11][12]. - For iron ore, the macro - environment has improved, risk appetite has increased, and the iron - water output remains high. Technically, it maintained a strong high - level consolidation, so a bullish view is appropriate [16]. - For glass, the supply side has no significant cold - repair due to losses, factory inventories are high, and downstream restocking power is weak. The recent trend is driven by news and sentiment. Technically, it pulled up near the end of the session, so a bullish view is appropriate [20]. - For methanol, as of July 9, 2025, China's methanol port inventory increased. The East China region saw inventory accumulation, while the South China region had destocking. With continued inventory accumulation and visible foreign - vessel unloading, a short - selling strategy with a light position is advisable [22]. 3. Summary by Related Catalogs Coking Coal - Supply: In June, over 30 coal mines in Shanxi, Shaanxi, and Inner Mongolia were shut down for rectification. It is expected that annual production will be reduced by 1.2 billion tons. The Mineral Resources Law implemented on July 1 raised the coal - mine production - capacity threshold, causing 30% of small coal mines to face exit, such as the suspension of 12 million tons of production capacity in Shanxi. The supply of high - quality coking coal tightened, and the spot price rose by 50 yuan/ton [3]. - Demand: During the "peak - summer" period, the daily consumption of power plants exceeded 2.4 million tons, the coking industry's operating rate reached 82% (a new high this year), the daily iron - water output rebounded to 2.35 million tons, and the coking - plant operating rate was 73%. Steel mills' passive restocking boosted short - term demand [3]. Stock Market - The Shanghai Composite Index had an opening - low and closing - high trend, while the Shenzhen Component Index and the ChiNext Index had minor fluctuations. Customs data showed that China's goods trade imports and exports increased by 2.9% year - on - year in the first half of the year. The market is expected to continue high - level oscillations [7][8]. Gold - The Fed's decision not to cut interest rates reduced the expectation of rate cuts this year, causing a short - term adjustment in gold prices. However, the long - term upward trend remains, and it has adjusted to an important support level, so investors can buy on dips [11][12]. Iron Ore - The macro - environment has improved, risk appetite has increased, and steel mills' profits are acceptable, resulting in high iron - water output. The industrial chain is in a positive - feedback repair state. Technically, it maintained a strong high - level consolidation, so a bullish view is appropriate [16]. Glass - The supply side has no significant cold - repair due to losses, factory inventories are high, and downstream restocking power is weak. The recent trend is driven by news and sentiment. Technically, it pulled up near the end of the session, so a bullish view is appropriate [20]. Methanol - As of July 9, 2025, the total methanol port inventory in China was 718,900 tons, an increase of 45,200 tons from the previous period. The East China region saw an inventory increase of 61,000 tons, while the South China region had a decrease of 15,800 tons. With continued inventory accumulation and visible foreign - vessel unloading of 177,200 tons, a short - selling strategy with a light position is advisable [22].
