1. Report Industry Investment Rating - Not provided in the given content 2. Core Views of the Report - **Copper**: Overnight, both domestic and international copper prices fluctuated and weakened. The import window for domestic spot refined copper remained open, but import profitability declined. The US - Iran conflict and negotiations introduced uncertainties, and the market was still pricing in the macro - environment's variability. However, the macro - suppression has weakened marginally, and fundamental support is emerging. Copper prices are expected to enter a phase of "support at the bottom, lack of upward drive" and oscillate to find the bottom. It is recommended to shift from a previously cautious and bearish strategy to range - bound operations and gradually build long positions at key support levels, while paying attention to copper prices in the range of 90,000 - 100,000 yuan/ton [1]. - **Aluminum**: Overnight, alumina fluctuated weakly, while Shanghai aluminum and aluminum alloy fluctuated strongly. Overseas raw material cost support has gradually weakened. After the release of domestic production increments and the upcoming arrival of a large amount of imported alumina, inventory is under pressure. The market's core contradiction has shifted from high premiums due to overseas geopolitics to the weak reality of domestic inventory accumulation and slow - starting demand, as well as the logic of upward repair of the copper - aluminum ratio. If there are no unexpected geopolitical disturbances, aluminum prices are expected to adjust weakly in the short term. Attention should be paid to the approaching inflection point of inventory reduction and be vigilant against new geopolitical variables [1][2]. - **Nickel**: Overnight, LME nickel and Shanghai nickel declined. Nickel ore prices continued to strengthen, while primary nickel faced significant inventory pressure. On the demand side, stainless - steel inventory decreased week - on - week, and the supply of MHP was disrupted. Given the current strengthening cost side, there may be short - term long - trading opportunities based on the cost line, but attention should be paid to overseas geopolitics and market sentiment. There is also an expectation for supplementary quotas in July, which will also put pressure on nickel prices [2]. 3.

Core Insights - The current A-share market is facing two significant underlying logical changes: structural imbalance in internal positions and substantial macroeconomic changes [1] - The report emphasizes the importance of determining whether the current situation is more comparable to early 2021 or early 2022, as historical pricing reviews indicate essential differences between the two periods [1][10] Historical Pricing Review - In March 2021, the core essence of the decline was structural adjustment rather than the onset of a systemic downturn. The decline was triggered by a rapid rise in U.S. Treasury yields and deteriorating micro trading structures, leading to a significant correction in previously favored "Mao Index" core assets [2] - The Shanghai Composite Index fell by 8.1%, while the ChiNext Index dropped nearly 21.6%. However, the market did not enter a full bear market but instead completed a clear shift in main lines, with the "Ning Combination" replacing the "Mao Index" as the core trading focus [2][11] - In February 2022, the decline was characterized as a defensive reduction rather than a simple style rebalancing, driven by weakening risk appetite, declining incremental funds, and profit expectations. The decline was triggered by inflation expectations stemming from the Russia-Ukraine conflict, with the total A-share market dropping 9.46% in January 2022 [3][11] Current Market Analysis - Based on the historical scenarios, two core scenarios are projected for the current market: 1. If the macro environment shows moderate inflation and resilient global economic characteristics, the current market is more likely to resemble March 2021, with the Shanghai Composite Index's performance aligning with this scenario [4][12] 2. If clear stagflation and a pause in the global rate cut cycle occur, the current market will resemble early 2022, necessitating a comprehensive reduction in positions and a shift towards defensive strategies [4][12] Sector Positioning - The report highlights that as of Q4 2025, domestic institutions have a significant allocation in the pan-technology sector, exceeding 50%, with the total allocation in overseas sectors approaching 70%. This indicates a structural imbalance that necessitates a rebalancing strategy moving forward [7][33] - The report suggests a focus on "new and old coexisting" strategies, emphasizing the selection of representative structural directions within technology, overseas, and resource sectors for effective portfolio management [7][8] Investment Themes - The report identifies four key rebalancing themes: 1. New and old rebalancing 2. Internal rebalancing within resource sectors 3. Internal rebalancing within technology sectors 4. Internal rebalancing within overseas sectors [8] - The emphasis is on identifying low-positioned value stocks and adjusting to the changing macroeconomic landscape, particularly in light of rising oil prices and a strengthening dollar [33][29]

Report Summary 1. Investment Rating No investment rating for the industry is provided in the report. 2. Core Viewpoints - The peanut spot market has seen a price decline. As of March 12, the average price of national general peanuts was 8,064 yuan/ton, up 9 yuan/ton or 0.11% from March 5. Some growers and grain dealers are reluctant to sell, resulting in limited supply. Processing enterprises are cautious in purchasing raw materials, and some trading enterprises hold a large amount of inventory. The demand for commercial peanuts is weak, while the demand for oil peanuts is increasing as some large oil mills start purchasing [1]. - In the futures market, peanut futures rose in the week of March 13. The main contract (PK2605) had a maximum price of 8,198 yuan/ton, a minimum of 7,920 yuan/ton, and a closing price of 8,186 yuan/ton (compared to 7,906 yuan/ton the previous week) [1]. - The Middle - East situation has affected the macro oil - meal market. Oil mills entered the market earlier than expected, which is positive for market sentiment. The increase in export orders for small - sized peanuts from Southeast Asia is beneficial to the peanut spot market, with some specifications in a tight - balance situation. However, the demand for commercial peanuts remains weak, which restricts the upward space of the market [2]. 3. Summary by Directory 3.1 Basis and Spread - The report presents the basis of Henan Baisha peanuts and Xingcheng Xiaoriben peanuts from 2021 - 2026, as well as the 11 - 1 spread (discontinued) and 5 - 10 spread [6][7][8]. 3.2 Price Data - The price of Henan Zhumadian Baisha peanuts was basically flat compared to last week.

1. Report Industry Investment Rating - Not provided in the given content 2. Core Viewpoints of the Report - For the nickel variety, although demand is still weak, the supply - side is supported by Indonesian nickel ore policies, leading to rising nickel ore prices and high production costs for ferronickel and electrolytic nickel, making the price bottom relatively stable. In the short term, geopolitical conflicts and the macro - environment are the main drivers of nickel price movements [2][4]. - For the stainless - steel variety, the price trend is mainly influenced by nickel prices. High costs support the price bottom, but loose supply and increasing inventory will suppress the upside space. Geopolitical conflicts and the macro - environment are the main drivers of price movements in the short term [5][6]. 3. Summary by Related Catalogs Nickel Variety Market Analysis - On March 9, 2026, the main contract of Shanghai nickel opened at 137,000 yuan/ton and closed at 136,520 yuan/ton, a change of - 0.16% from the previous trading day's closing. The trading volume was 630,657 (+249,124) lots, and the open interest was 208,527 (-4,952) lots [1]. Trend Analysis - Due to the intensification of geopolitical tensions in the Middle East and the strengthening of the US dollar index, the Shanghai nickel main contract plunged at the opening of the day session, reaching an intraday low of 132,350 yuan/ton within 15 minutes with a decline of over 3%. Then, due to the easing of the US stance, the price rebounded to near the opening price and then fluctuated until the close. Fundamentally, demand is weak, but the supply - side is supported by Indonesian policies, and nickel ore prices are rising [2]. - In the nickel ore market, the overall market is stable. In the Philippines, the main mining area is affected by weather, and the supply is uncertain. Mines' quotes remain high. In Indonesia, the supply of the domestic nickel ore market is tight, and the domestic premium remains high [2]. Spot Market - Jinchuan Group's ex - factory price premium in Shanghai converged, and the spot premium of Jinchuan resources declined. Other brands' spot premiums were stable or rising. The trading volume improved when the nickel price fell in the morning and then declined as the price rose.
