Report Summary 1. Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant content provided. 2. Core View of the Report - The Shanghai copper main contract fluctuates strongly, with an increase in open interest, spot premium, and weakening basis. The cost - support logic for copper prices remains strong due to rising raw material prices and negative TC fees in the mining end. The supply of domestic refined copper may decline slightly as domestic copper concentrate port inventories are low and raw material supply is relatively tight. The downstream export demand may decline due to high tariffs on copper semi - products imposed by the US, while domestic demand is expected to recover due to macro - policy support and the approaching traditional consumption season. The overall inventory will remain at a medium - low level and gradually decrease with the recovery of consumption. The industry outlook is positive.
