Report Industry Investment Ratings - Copper: The rating is not clearly interpretable from the Chinese - like symbols provided. Analysis indicates potential resistance at integer levels [1]. - Aluminum: The rating is not clearly interpretable. It is expected to be in short - term oscillation with resistance at the 21,000 yuan area [2]. - Alumina: The rating is not clearly interpretable. It is in a weak oscillation, testing the 3000 - yuan support level [2]. - Casting Aluminum Alloy: The rating is not clearly interpretable. It follows the movement of Shanghai Aluminum [2]. - Zinc: The rating is not clearly interpretable. There is a mid - line idea of short - selling on rebounds [3]. - Lead: The rating is not clearly interpretable. In the short - term, it is seen as oscillating [5]. - Nickel and Stainless Steel: The rating is not clearly interpretable. Technically, nickel has a rebound intention, but the fundamental is weak, suggesting looking for short positions [6]. - Tin: The rating is not clearly interpretable. It is recommended to hold previous long positions and wait for profit realization, with caution when chasing up above 275,000 yuan [7]. - Lithium Carbonate: The rating is not clearly interpretable. It is in a relatively strong oscillation [8]. - Industrial Silicon: The rating is not clearly interpretable. There is a risk in going long, with the current focus on the 8300 - yuan/ton support level [9]. - Polysilicon: The rating is not clearly interpretable. It is expected to maintain an oscillating trend [10]. Core View The report analyzes the market conditions of various non - ferrous metals. It takes into account factors such as inventory changes, supply - demand relationships, and policy expectations. Different metals show different trends, including oscillation, potential rebounds, or weakening trends. For example, some metals have clear resistance or support levels, and the market sentiment and trading volume also vary among different metals [1][2][3][5][6][7][8][9][10]. Summary by Metal Copper - On Friday, Shanghai copper increased its positions, and the afternoon session expanded the rebound amplitude. The spot copper price was 79,390 yuan, and the Shanghai copper premium widened to 250 yuan. Attention was paid to the US monthly PCE indicator at night, and the resistance at integer levels was strong [1]. Aluminum, Alumina, and Aluminum Alloy - Shanghai aluminum had a narrow - range fluctuation, with spot discounts remaining in various regions. Downstream开工seasonally increased, and inventory was likely to be low this year. However, the inventory accumulation point was not clear, and it was expected to oscillate in the short - term, with resistance at the 21,000 - yuan area. Casting aluminum alloy followed Shanghai aluminum, with the Baotai spot price at 20,300 yuan. The supply of scrap aluminum was tight, and the expected tax policy adjustment increased enterprise costs, with the potential for the cross - variety price difference between spot and Shanghai aluminum to narrow further. Alumina's operating capacity was at a historical high, with increasing industry inventory and Shanghai Futures Exchange warehouse receipts. Supply surplus was emerging, and the spot index in various regions was declining. It was in a weak oscillation, testing the 3000 - yuan support level, and short - term long positions could be considered if the futures discount widened [2]. Zinc - SMM zinc social inventory rose to 144,500 tons, and LME zinc inventory was as low as 58,000 tons, with the cancelled warrant ratio at 25%. The domestic downstream consumption was in the off - season, and there were concerns about pre - consumption. In September, attention was paid to whether the consumption would be weak during the peak season. The increase in the mine end was being realized, and there was still room to short - sell mine profits on the futures market. The mid - line idea of short - selling on rebounds remained unchanged [3]. Lead - LME lead had high inventory, suppressing the lead price. Factors such as pre - consumption, tariff impact, and lithium substitution for lead led to insufficient expected demand growth and lack of rebound momentum. Due to smelter production cuts and transportation restrictions, SMM lead social inventory decreased to 67,100 tons. The raw material shortage situation remained unchanged, and the cost provided support. The downward adjustment space was limited, and in the short - term, the directional signal was weak, with continuous capital outflows. The consumption expectation was difficult to improve fundamentally, and in September, attention was paid to the implementation of smelter maintenance [5]. Nickel and Stainless Steel - Shanghai nickel rebounded, but the market trading was dull. Traders had a strong intention to support prices, and the premium range of mainstream electrolytic nickel remained at - 100 - 300 yuan/ton this week. Affected by the decline in the futures price, the downstream procurement volume increased this week. Pure nickel inventory decreased by 1000 tons to 41,000 tons, nickel - iron inventory remained at 33,000 tons for nearly a month and a half, and stainless - steel inventory remained unchanged at 934,000 tons, but the overall level was still high. Attention was paid to the end of the de - stocking. Technically, nickel had a rebound intention, but the fundamental was weak, and short positions were to be sought [6]. Tin - Shanghai tin increased its positions and rose sharply. Tin announced maintenance as expected. Overseas A1 semiconductor investment remained prosperous, with low LME tin inventory and high premiums. The domestic spot tin price was raised to 272,900 yuan, with a real - time discount of 350 yuan to the delivery month. Attention was paid to social inventory. Caution was needed when chasing up above 275,000 yuan, and attention was paid to capital changes. The tin price might test 280,000 - 282,000 yuan. Previous long positions were to be held, waiting for profit realization [7]. Lithium Carbonate - The lithium carbonate futures price adjusted downward, and market trading declined. Some miners sold goods when the futures price rose, and there were sporadic auctions. After the futures price dived, there was phased reluctance to sell. Downstream continuously adjusted their psychological price levels, and the replenishment behavior was generally cautious. The total market inventory slightly decreased by 700 tons to 142,000 tons, smelter inventory decreased by 3000 tons to 47,000 tons, downstream inventory increased by nearly 3000 tons to 52,000 tons. After the price dropped rapidly, downstream took the opportunity to buy goods, and trader inventory decreased by 1000 tons to 43,000 tons. The speculation sentiment in the mid - stream decreased, and the transfer of goods was mainly from the upstream to the downstream. The latest Australian ore quotation was 925 US dollars, and the ore - end quotation slightly adjusted downward, matching the lithium price fluctuation. The mid - stream production decreased by 5% week - on - week. During the adjustment of the lithium carbonate futures price, the market focus was on the expectation of the 930 deadline after downstream shutdowns, which was difficult to verify in the short - term, and the fundamental had limited guidance on the price. Overall, it was in a relatively strong oscillation, and risk control was needed [8]. Industrial Silicon - The industrial silicon futures price was approaching the lower limit of the oscillation range. In terms of fundamentals, both supply and demand increased in August, and the restarted production capacity in Xinjiang released output. In September, due to industry self - discipline, the production schedule of polysilicon was expected to decline significantly, and the large - scale production cuts in Sichuan and Yunnan might be postponed until after the dry season in September. It was expected that the supply - demand contradiction of industrial silicon would intensify this month, and the spot price had been continuously adjusting downward recently. The futures market was currently focusing on the 8300 - yuan/ton support level. Next week, the policy expectation of polysilicon might ferment, but the fundamental support was weak, and the risk of going long was to be vigilant [9]. Polysilicon - The polysilicon futures closed up in an oscillating manner at around 49,500 yuan/ton. The weekly inventory data of polysilicon decreased rapidly, and downstream trading volume increased, mainly due to industry self - discipline. The production schedule of polysilicon in September was expected to decline significantly. Next week, the "anti - involution" policy expectation might ferment again, but before more details were disclosed, it was expected to maintain an oscillating trend [10].

Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant content provided. Core Viewpoints of the Report - In January - May 2025, China's cumulative net exports of unwrought aluminum and aluminum products reached 760,000 tons, remaining flat year - on - year, with positive year - on - year growth from January to April. The good performance of net export data mainly stems from the Shanghai - London ratio limiting imports rather than outstanding export data [3][43]. - In 2024, direct exports to the US accounted for 3.7% of the total export volume. Assuming the extreme scenario of re - export trade, the US's indirect imports from China accounted for 7.8%. Thus, the US's maximum dependence on Chinese aluminum products could reach 11.5% [4][19][43]. - If the re - export trade of Chinese aluminum products to the US is completely restricted, based on 2025 data, direct exports to the US would decline by 1.8%, and the consumption of aluminum elements in China would only decline by 0.2% [5][24][43]. - Regarding the 24% tariff window on China, starting from May 14th, if goods arrive in the US and clear customs before August 11th, they can be exempted from the 24% tariff. Assuming the fastest clearance time of 15 days, China's rush to export can last until the end of July [5][40][45]. - There is no need to overly focus on the US's impact on China's consumption. Even with the pre - consumption caused by the rush to export, attention should be paid to the consumption resilience of other developed regions and the consumption growth of third - world countries [6][27][45]. - The pre - consumption caused by the rush to export may lead to a decline in later consumption, but the steepness of the decline may be less than expected. In the context of limited supply, as long as the year - on - year consumption of aluminum increases, the overall positive trend remains unchanged [6][45] Summary by Directory Export Data Analysis - From January to May 2025, China's cumulative net exports of unwrought aluminum and aluminum products were 760,000 tons, remaining flat year - on - year, with positive year - on - year growth from January to April. This was mainly due to the decrease in net imports of electrolytic aluminum and aluminum alloy affected by the Shanghai - London ratio. From January to May, the cumulative net exports of aluminum products were 2.12 million tons, a cumulative year - on - year decrease of 6%. The cancellation of export tax rebates for Chinese aluminum products since November 2024 had a substantial impact on exports. However, the monthly decline in net exports of aluminum products in the first half of the year narrowed, which was related to the rush to export during the tariff window. Due to the additional tariffs imposed by the US on steel and aluminum imports, the actual export was more difficult, and the rush to export was mainly in the form of end - products [12]. US's Direct and Indirect Dependence on Chinese Aluminum Products - Using sample data from 2021 - 2024, which accounted for about 24% of the total export volume, it was estimated that in 2024, direct exports to the US accounted for 3.7% of the total export volume, and indirect imports from China accounted for 7.8% under the extreme re - export scenario, with a maximum dependence of 11.5%. If the US imposes tariffs globally, the impact on China's aluminum export consumption is limited under the condition that US consumption does not decline. The biggest impact comes from the re - inflation problem caused by tariffs. Chinese aluminum products can be compensated through re - export trade. From January to May 2025, China's total exports of unwrought aluminum and aluminum products were 1.67 million tons, a cumulative year - on - year decrease of 7.2% (130,000 tons), mainly due to the cancellation of export tax rebates. The direct export to the US in 2024 was 61,000 tons, while from January to May 2025, it was only 11,000 tons, and the proportion of direct exports to the US dropped to 1.9%. The direct impact of tariffs on exports to the US was only 1.8%. Since the US import data for 2025 has not been released, the impact of re - export has not been evaluated [15][19]. - Based on the aluminum element calculation, in 2024, China's aluminum element supply was 55.75 million tons, and exports accounted for about 12% of China's aluminum consumption. If the US completely stops relying on Chinese aluminum products, the consumption of aluminum elements in China will decline by 1.4%. In reality, on the basis of stable US consumption, re - export trade is difficult to restrict, and US trade actions alone are unlikely to significantly impact China's aluminum consumption [20][24]. Attention to Third - World Consumption Growth after Tariff - Affected Rush to Export - According to customs data, from January to June, China's cumulative exports of automobiles (including chassis) reached 3.473 million units, a cumulative year - on - year increase of 18.6%. According to data from the China Association of Automobile Manufacturers, the cumulative exports of automobiles from January to June were 3.078 million units, a cumulative year - on - year increase of 10.3%. Both data sources show a monthly growth trend in exports, and the monthly exports of components also show a recovery trend [27]. - There is no need to overly focus on the US's impact on China's consumption. The export price of Yiwu small commodities remains high, and although the US price in the container shipping price index has dropped significantly, the comprehensive price index is still good. Therefore, attention should be paid to the consumption resilience of other developed regions and the consumption growth of third - world countries. From January to May, China's cumulative exports of wire and cable were 1.23 million tons, a cumulative year - on - year increase of 14.5%, and the cumulative year - on - year growth rate continued to rise, showing a continuous growth trend in recent years. The rapid development of developing countries will drive the export and consumption of China's infrastructure products [27]. Rush - to - Export Time Point under US Tariff Window - Since January 20, 2025, when Trump officially took office as the US President, the tariff war began. With the implementation of tariff executive orders such as those related to fentanyl, the US imposed a maximum tariff of 145% on Chinese goods. After the Geneva negotiations on May 12th, 91% of the reciprocal tariffs were cancelled, and the 24% tariff on China was suspended for 90 days, reducing the tariff on Chinese goods exported to the US to 30%. However, for aluminum products, due to the US's consecutive increases in steel and aluminum tariffs, even after the Geneva talks, Chinese aluminum products still face a high tariff of 104% when exported to the US [40]. - Starting from May 14th, if goods arrive in the US and clear customs before August 11th, they can be exempted from the 24% tariff. Considering the fastest shipping time from China's coastal areas to the US West Coast (about 12 days) and the estimated fastest clearance time of 15 days, China's rush to export can last until the end of July [40]. Conclusion - The conclusion is consistent with the core viewpoints of the report, emphasizing the export situation of Chinese aluminum products, the US's dependence on Chinese aluminum products, the impact of tariff policies, the rush - to - export time point, and the focus on consumption in other regions [43][45].

Group 1: Company Analysis - Lu'an Huanneng is identified as a leading enterprise in the blowing coal sector, characterized by pure business operations and high elasticity. Despite being in a downward coal price cycle, the company's current price-to-book (PB) ratio presents value, with projected net profits for 2024-2026 at 2.62 billion, 2.14 billion, and 3.03 billion yuan, translating to earnings per share (EPS) of 0.87, 0.71, and 1.01 yuan respectively. The current price-to-earnings (PE) ratios are 13, 16, and 11 times, leading to an "overweight" rating [2] - Bailing Co., Ltd. reported a revenue of 27.675 billion yuan in 2024, a decrease of 9.32% year-on-year, while net profit attributable to shareholders increased by 292.73% to 1.567 billion yuan. The company is expected to benefit from the ongoing recovery in consumer spending, with net profit forecasts for 2025 and 2026 adjusted to 473 million and 519 million yuan, respectively, and a new forecast for 2027 set at 565 million yuan [19] Group 2: Industry Insights - The impact of the US-China tariff conflict on domestic electricity consumption is deemed limited. The electric machinery and equipment manufacturing sector, which has a significant export volume to the US, shows that tariff changes will not substantially affect overall electricity demand. Historical data from July 2018 to January 2020 indicates that the hydropower sector outperformed, while thermal power slightly lagged but still surpassed wind, solar, and nuclear power sectors. Recommended stocks include Yangtze Power and Sichuan Investment Energy in the hydropower sector, and Huadian International and Anhui Energy in the thermal power sector [6] - The recent tariff imposition by the US has led to a preemptive increase in consumer purchasing behavior, with March retail sales in the US showing a month-on-month growth of 1.4%, a significant rise from February's 0.2%. However, this surge may lead to a potential weakening of future retail demand, prompting the Federal Reserve to maintain a cautious stance in the short term [15]
