Macroscopically, the increase in US consumer prices in September was lower than expected, and the Fed is still expected to cut interest rates again this week. Domestically, the macro - sentiment is positive. Fundamentally, the supply of domestic bauxite remains tight, and the price has increased slightly. The operating rate of domestic aluminum downstream processing enterprises is stable in the peak season with internal differentiation. As of October 27, the inventory of electrolytic aluminum ingots in domestic mainstream consumption areas increased [10] - Viewpoint: It is expected to fluctuate strongly in the near term, and attention should be paid to downstream feedback at high prices [11] - Later attention: Geopolitical crisis development, macro - policy implementation, supply increase, and consumption release [12] Zinc - Logic: Last week, the zinc price was strong. The import of zinc ore is still significantly loss - making, and domestic zinc ore is in short supply. The operating rate of galvanizing decreased last week. The inventory of zinc ingots decreased due to downstream enterprises' cautious purchasing. The overall domestic inventory increased, with different trends in different regions [13] - Viewpoint: In the short term, the price will follow the overall non - ferrous metals to operate at a high level, but medium - and long - term supply increase will put pressure on the upside. Attention should be paid to the transmission from the mine end to the smelting end, and be vigilant against macro - risk events [13] - Later attention: Macro - policy implementation, mine - end production release, and consumption release [13] Tin - Logic: In September 2025, the domestic tin ore import volume decreased month - on - month and increased year - on - year. Indonesia's closure of illegal tin mines and the slow resumption of production in Myanmar have led to a tight supply situation. The domestic production and operating rate have rebounded, but the processing fee of smelters remains low. Downstream consumption in emerging fields is okay, but traditional sectors are cooling down [15] - Viewpoint: In the short term, there is a situation of weak supply and demand, and the tin price will be strongly sorted [15] - Later attention: Myanmar's resumption of production and countries' trade policies [15] 3.3 03品种数据（铝、锌、锡） Aluminum - Bauxite: The price of domestic high - grade bauxite in Henan increased week - on - week and year - on - year; the price of domestic low - grade bauxite in Henan increased week - on - week and year - on - year; the average price index of imported bauxite decreased week - on - week and year - on - year.

1. Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant content provided. 2. Core Views of the Report - The market is pricing in the possibility of the Federal Reserve cutting interest rates three times this year due to factors such as the under - expected US non - farm data and lower - than - expected PPI, which weakens the US dollar index and boosts metal prices. The traditional "Golden September and Silver October" season is coming, and the marginal demand for non - ferrous metals may improve to some extent, but the upward space still requires the positive resonance of each variety's fundamentals and the macro - environment [3][11]. - For copper, the price is expected to rise, and the price center may move up. For aluminum, it is recommended to be short - term long. For zinc, it can be considered to participate in the market with a bullish spread at low prices or be slightly long at low stages. For lead, it is advisable to hold long positions and consider a wide - range option double - selling strategy. For nickel and stainless steel, they can be slightly long at low prices [3][5][6]. 3. Summary According to the Table of Contents 3.1 First Part: Non - Ferrous Metals Operation Logic and Investment Suggestions - **Macro - logic**: The expectation of interest rate cuts is rising. The weak US employment data and the continuous slowdown of the ISM manufacturing data have raised concerns about the US economic growth slowdown and recession. However, the moderate inflation has strengthened the positive impact of interest rate cuts. The non - ferrous metals market is fluctuating and rising, and the leading varieties are driving the overall sector to turn warmer [10]. - **Single - side Strategy for Each Metal** - **Copper**: The demand in industries such as electricity, data centers, and new energy vehicles is strong. The domestic electrolytic copper production in September is expected to decline. The price is expected to rise, with a short - term upper pressure range of 81000 - 82000 yuan/ton and a lower support range of 79000 - 80000 yuan/ton. It is recommended to go long at low prices [3][12]. - **Aluminum Industry Chain**: The supply and demand of the aluminum industry chain are both changing. The electrolytic aluminum production capacity is shifting, and the demand is gradually recovering. It is recommended to be short - term long, with an upper pressure range of 21300 - 21700 and a lower support range of 20200 - 20500. For alumina, it is recommended to hold short positions cautiously, with an upper pressure range of 3500 - 3700 and a lower support range of 2700 - 2900 [5][13]. - **Zinc**: The zinc price shows an external - strong and internal - weak pattern. The downstream procurement is relatively light, and the inventory is slightly increasing. It is recommended to participate in the market with a bullish spread at low prices or be slightly long at low stages, with an upper pressure range of 22800 - 23000 and a lower support range of 21800 - 22000 [6]. - **Lead**: The supply of primary and secondary lead is decreasing, and the spot inventory is slightly decreasing. It is recommended to hold long positions, with a short - term support range of 16500 - 16600 and an upper pressure range of 17200 - 17400. A wide - range option double - selling strategy can also be considered [6]. - **Nickel and Stainless Steel**: The nickel price rebounds due to the uncertainty of the Indonesian mining end. It is recommended to be slightly long at low prices, with an upper pressure range of 125000 - 128000 yuan and a lower support range of 118000 - 120000 yuan. Stainless steel is recommended to be slightly long at low prices, with a support range of 12700 - 12800 and an upper pressure range of 13000 - 13200 [6]. - **Arbitrage Strategy** - **Copper 2510 - 2511 Contracts**: It is recommended to conduct a positive spread due to the strengthening of the domestic copper fundamentals and the expected interest rate cut [15]. - **Alumina 2502 - 2509 Contracts**: It is recommended to conduct a reverse spread as the near - strong and far - weak structure of alumina has returned [15]. 3.2 Second Part: Non - Ferrous Metals Market Review - The report provides the closing prices and weekly price changes of various non - ferrous metals, including copper, aluminum, tin, zinc, lead, nickel, stainless steel, and casting aluminum alloy [15]. 3.3 Third Part: Non - Ferrous Metals Spot Market - The report presents the spot prices and price changes of various non - ferrous metals, such as copper, zinc, aluminum, alumina, nickel, stainless steel, tin, and lead [20]. 3.4 Fourth Part: Key Data Tracking of the Non - Ferrous Metals Industry Chain - It provides a series of data charts related to the non - ferrous metals industry chain, including inventory changes, processing fees, production capacity, and开工率 for each metal [21][23][32]. 3.5 Fifth Part: Non - Ferrous Metals Arbitrage - The report includes various charts related to the arbitrage of non - ferrous metals, such as the ratio of domestic and foreign prices, basis spreads, and spreads between different contracts for each metal [74][76][78]. 3.6 Sixth Part: Non - Ferrous Metals Options - It provides charts of historical volatility, weighted implied volatility, trading volume, and open interest of options for various non - ferrous metals, and gives corresponding option strategies [93][94][96].

Report Industry Investment Rating - Not provided in the content Core Viewpoints of the Report - For the overall non - ferrous metals, macro uncertainties remain high. Domestic policies boost the entire non - ferrous metals market in the short term, and prices are expected to run strongly in the short term. Follow - up attention should be paid to the development of news and downstream off - season conditions [9][10] - For aluminum, the short - term domestic macro situation significantly boosts the alumina price. Although the overall supply of alumina is relatively loose, the spot price in the southwest region is supported. The alumina spot price is expected to gradually peak, and attention should be paid to subsequent arrivals [9] - For zinc, domestic policies boost short - term prices, but medium - to - long - term supply increases still put pressure on the upper limit. Attention should be paid to the development of news [12][13] - For tin, it shows a short - term oscillatory and strong trend, but the downward pressure increases in the medium term [15] Summary by Directory 01 Non - ferrous Weekly Market Review - **Futures and Spot Prices**: From July 11 to July 18, 2025, the closing prices of copper, aluminum, zinc, nickel futures main contracts decreased, with weekly declines of 0.03%, 0.89%, 0.38%, and 0.73% respectively; the tin futures main contract price increased by 0.23%. Spot prices of copper, zinc, tin, and nickel decreased, with weekly declines of 0.04%, 0.34%, 0.28%, and 0.60% respectively; the aluminum spot price remained unchanged [7] 02 This Week's Non - ferrous Market Forecast Aluminum - **Logic**: Overseas tariff policies and personnel change rumors make risk assets cautious, while domestic "anti - involution" policies drive up industrial metals. Domestically, short - term macro factors boost alumina prices. Demand in the southwest region increases due to upcoming electrolytic aluminum capacity replacement projects, and supply may decrease due to upcoming maintenance. Nationally, alumina supply is relatively loose, and the increase in electrolytic aluminum plant inventories may put pressure on the alumina spot price [9] - **Viewpoint**: Prices are expected to run strongly in the short term, and follow - up attention should be paid to news and downstream off - season conditions [10] - **Follow - up Concerns**: Geopolitical crisis development, macro policy implementation, supply increase, and consumption release [11] Zinc - **Logic**: Domestic zinc ore processing fees remain stable, and imported zinc ore processing fees increase. The galvanizing start - up rate rises, and zinc ingot inventories increase. The die - casting zinc alloy start - up rate decreases, raw material inventories slightly increase, and finished product inventories decrease. Domestic inventories decrease overall [12] - **Viewpoint**: Domestic policies boost short - term prices, but medium - to - long - term supply increases put pressure on the upper limit. Attention should be paid to the development of news [13] - **Follow - up Concerns**: Macro policy implementation, mine production release, and consumption release [14] Tin - **Logic**: The resumption of production in Myanmar is slow, resulting in a shortage of raw materials for domestic smelters. Downstream demand is in the off - season, and orders in various sectors decline. Tin prices are supported at the bottom but face pressure at the top. An increase in supply may put pressure on prices [15] - **Viewpoint**: Short - term oscillatory and strong, with increasing downward pressure in the medium term [15] - **Follow - up Concerns**: Resumption of production in Congo (Kinshasa), Myanmar, and Malaysia; trade policies of various countries [15] 03 Variety Data Aluminum - **Bauxite**: Domestic high - grade bauxite prices in Henan remain unchanged week - on - week; domestic low - grade bauxite prices in Henan remain unchanged week - on - week; imported bauxite average prices decrease week - on - week.

The spot price was 122,540, up 1,900 (1.57%) [7]. 02 This Week's Non - ferrous Market Forecast Aluminum - Logic: Last week, aluminum prices first declined and then rose. The impact of the rainy season in Guinea is expected to gradually emerge. The average weekly outbound volume in the 4th week of May was 3.54 million tons/week, and in the 4th week of June, it was 3.32 million tons/week, a decrease of 220,000 tons/week. In June, the PMI composite index of the aluminum processing industry was 40.1%, falling below the boom - bust line, a decrease of 9.7 percentage points month - on - month and 1.5% year - on - year. As of June 30, the inventory of electrolytic aluminum ingots in the main domestic consumption areas was 468,000 tons, an increase of 5,000 tons from last Thursday and 4,000 tons from last Monday. Due to the increase in the overall supply of aluminum ingots in late June and the high price of aluminum inhibiting consumption and outbound performance, inventory accumulation occurred as expected. In early July, with the expected slight increase in the ingot - casting volume in some provinces, inventory may continue to increase steadily. [9] - View: Macro uncertainty remains high. Low inventory provides support but there are signs of inventory accumulation. Prices are expected to move within a range in the short term. Follow - up attention should be paid to the development of news and the transition of downstream off - season. [9] Zinc - Logic: Last week, zinc prices were strong. The macro - market sentiment improved due to macro - easing, and the expectation of interest rate cuts also supported the upward movement of LME zinc. There was a strike by workers at a zinc smelter in Peru, and overseas inventories have been declining recently, which brought uncertainty to the supply side and drove prices up. The operating rate of zinc oxide enterprises was 58.72%, a decrease of 0.28% month - on - month. The procurement of zinc oxide enterprises decreased due to the rising zinc price and weakening downstream consumption, and the raw material inventory decreased while the finished product inventory increased. The operating rate of die - casting zinc alloy enterprises was 46.54%, a decrease of 8.58 percentage points month - on - month. Due to the rising zinc price, enterprise procurement willingness was low, and the raw material inventory decreased. Due to weakening downstream consumption and high prices, the outbound volume of die - casting zinc alloy enterprises decreased, and the finished product inventory increased. As of June 30, the total inventory of zinc ingots in SMM's seven regions was 80,600 tons, an increase of 2,800 tons from June 23 and 1,100 tons from June 26. [10] - View: Zinc supply disruptions boost short - term prices, but medium - to long - term supply increases will put pressure on prices. Attention should be paid to the development of news. [10] Tin - Logic: Overseas supply remains tight, domestic smelting enterprise inventories are low, and the operating rate has decreased. Although future supply is expected to be loose, short - term supply tightness continues to support tin prices. Downstream demand has not changed much, but there are signs of slowing growth in sectors such as semiconductors, automobiles, and home appliances, which may put some pressure on tin. [11] - View: Prices are expected to be volatile and strong in the short term, but downward pressure will increase in the medium term.

1. Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant content provided. 2. Core Viewpoints of the Report - The macro - disturbances are weakening, but the Sino - US game continues, and there is still a possibility of repetition in the tariff issue. The prices of non - ferrous metals continue to fluctuate. The fundamentals of different metals have different impacts on prices, and the prices of each metal are expected to show different trends in the short term [3][4]. 3. Summary by Related Catalogs 3.1 Copper - **Trend Status**: High - level and strong - side oscillation, with a price range of 76000 - 79500 [3]. - **Market Viewpoint**: Mine - end disturbances continue, the cost pressure of smelters limits the downward space of prices, but the supply shortage pressure is difficult to change. Consumption in May weakened compared with April but was better than the same period. Social inventory has been slightly accumulating since May, and the spot premium has weakened, but the low - level inventory still supports the premium. The market demand is difficult to recover significantly at the end of the month, but there may be some inventory - building sentiment during the Dragon Boat Festival. The fundamentals still support the copper price, and the Shanghai copper may maintain an oscillating pattern before the festival [3]. - **Operation Suggestion**: Interval trading, and pay attention to the position of near - month contracts [3]. 3.2 Aluminum - **Trend Status**: Continued strong - side oscillation [3]. - **Market Viewpoint**: The revocation of some mining licenses in Guinea has escalated. The operating capacity of alumina has increased, and the operating capacity of electrolytic aluminum has also increased. The demand of domestic aluminum downstream processing enterprises has declined, and the off - season is approaching. However, the unexpected de - stocking of aluminum ingots and aluminum rods, and the 90 - day tariff window period promote export rush. The short - term aluminum price is expected to oscillate [3]. - **Operation Suggestion**: Wait - and - see [3]. 3.3 Zinc - **Trend Status**: Oscillation, with a price range of 22000 - 23000 [3]. - **Market Viewpoint**: The supply of the mine end is loose, and the domestic inventory has decreased. However, the traditional consumption peak season of downstream has passed, and the consumption is weak, with insufficient fundamental support. If the inventory turns, the decline of zinc price may expand [3]. - **Operation Suggestion**: Interval trading [3]. 3.4 Lead - **Trend Status**: Overall strong - side oscillation, with a price range of 16600 - 17100 [3]. - **Market Viewpoint**: The supply and demand are both weak. The import decline has accelerated the de - stocking of domestic lead, but it is in the consumption off - season, and both smelters and battery enterprises are waiting and watching [3]. - **Operation Suggestion**: Interval trading [3]. 3.5 Nickel - **Trend Status**: Weak - side oscillation, with a price range of 122000 - 127000 for nickel and 12800 - 13200 for stainless steel [3]. - **Market Viewpoint**: The nickel ore market in Indonesia is tight, and the cost is firm, but the long - term supply of nickel is excessive.
