After confirming the stage bottom, low volatility is expected to be followed by an increase in volatility. It's difficult to conduct short - term unilateral futures long operations, and one can lightly and gradually lay out bull spreads of CSI 1000 put options on pullbacks [2]. Treasury Bond Futures - The 10 - year treasury bond faces resistance near 1.85%, and the T2603 contract may find support around 107.6. The 30 - 10Y spread has reached a high this year, but unfavorable factors in ultra - long - term varieties are hard to reverse in the short term. One can lightly test long positions in varieties within 10 years if sentiment improves and avoid 30 - year varieties. It's recommended to wait and see on the unilateral strategy and prefer varieties within 10 years when market sentiment improves. The curve strategy may still tend to steepen [2].

Ferrous Metals - For steel, due to steel mill production cuts, a "long - rebar, short - iron ore" arbitrage is recommended, and the spread between hot - rolled coil and rebar should be narrowed.

For coking coal, with the expansion of price cuts in the origin and a decline in Mongolian coal prices, the futures price is in a weak downward trend. For coke, the first round of price cuts in December has been implemented, and the port trade price has led the decline. All are viewed with a bearish oscillation outlook [2].

Long - term long positions can be held, and short - term long positions can take profits on rallies. Alumina is oscillating around the industry's cash - cost bottom, with limited short - term downside. Aluminum is affected by macro - disturbances, and short - term long positions can be taken on dips. For zinc, due to export - driven tight spot supply, zinc prices are oscillating at a high level, and cross - market reverse arbitrage opportunities should be noted. Tin has a strong fundamental situation and is oscillating at a high level, with the idea of holding previous long positions and going long on pullbacks [2]. New Energy - Industrial silicon futures prices have rebounded after a decline, and existing long positions can be held.

PTA has a near - strong and far - weak supply - demand pattern, with limited rebound space. Short - fiber has a weak supply - demand outlook, and its processing fee is mainly compressed.

Benzene is in a situation where the port is accumulating inventory, with near - term weakness and long - term strength [2]. Agricultural Products - Corn is under pressure as downstream receiving is sluggish. Palm oil is oscillating, and soybean oil has slightly declined following the external market. Sugar in the northern hemisphere's crushing season is progressing well. Cotton should be monitored according to the USDA supply - demand report. Eggs' production capacity is being reduced slowly.
