Report Summary 1. Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant information provided. 2. Core Views - **Jiaomei**: With the approaching Spring Festival, the supply of coking coal has decreased, and coal mines are reluctant to lower prices. However, downstream procurement sentiment is weak, and the price fluctuation is small. The market is in a wait - and - see state. The current basis indicates a premium of the spot price over the futures price. The total inventory has decreased compared to last week. The 20 - day line is upward, and the price is above it. The main position has changed from net short to net long. Considering that some steel mills have slightly limited production and some coking enterprises have completed winter storage, the demand for coking coal is expected to remain stable in the short term [2][3]. - **Jiaotan**: The coking coal auction market has improved, and most coking enterprises are in normal production. But downstream procurement enthusiasm is weak, and coking enterprises' inventory pressure is increasing. The current basis indicates a discount of the spot price to the futures price. The total inventory has decreased compared to last week. The 20 - day line is upward, and the price is above it. The main position has increased net long positions. As some steel mills have completed inventory replenishment and the steel market is unlikely to improve before the Spring Festival, the price of coke is expected to remain stable in the short term [6][7]. 3.

Report Industry Investment Rating - Not provided in the content Core Views - **Coking Coal**: Downstream coking and steel enterprises have low inventories and stable demand, with high pig iron production and limited motivation for steel mills to cut production. However, due to the large increase in coal prices and pressure on profits, coking enterprises have limited room to increase production, and some have slightly reduced production, affecting the release of raw material coal demand. It is expected that coking coal prices will remain stable in the short term [2]. - **Coke**: Coking enterprises are facing profit pressure and are restricted by environmental protection policies, so their short - term production is on a downward trend. Downstream steel mills have a relatively high daily average pig iron production and still have some restocking needs. Some steel mills affected by environmental protection restrictions will soon lift the restrictions, and the subsequent procurement demand of steel mills is expected to pick up. Coupled with the strong support of coking coal prices at the raw material end, it is expected that coke prices will remain stable in the short term [7]. Summary by Relevant Catalogs Coking Coal - **Fundamentals**: The current supply in the producing areas has not increased significantly, and coal mines are strongly willing to hold prices. Coking and steel enterprises have low raw material inventories and still have restocking needs. The third round of coke price increases has started, driving up the quotes of many coal types. Online auctions have performed well with a high transaction rate. Considering the continuous tight supply of coal mines and the active transportation by downstream users, the overall market supply is still tight, and coal enterprises are still bullish on the future market [3]. - **Basis**: The spot market price is 1,390, and the basis is 104. The spot price is at a premium to the futures price [3]. - **Inventory**: Steel mill inventory is 781.1 tons, port inventory is 295 tons, and independent coking enterprise inventory is 819.3 tons. The total sample inventory is 1,895.4 tons, a decrease of 76.2 tons from last week [3]. - **Disk**: The 20 - day moving average is upward, and the price is above the 20 - day moving average [3]. - **Main Position**: The main position of coking coal is net long, but the long position has decreased [3]. - **Positive Factors**: Pig iron production has increased, and it is difficult for supply to increase [5]. - **Negative Factors**: Coking and steel enterprises have slowed down their procurement of raw material coal, and steel prices are weak [5]. Coke - **Fundamentals**: After two consecutive rounds of coke price increases, the loss situation of coking enterprises has improved. However, due to the continuous rise in raw material coal prices, the production increase space of coking enterprises is restricted, and the coking enterprise production level remains low, with the coke supply continuing to be tight [8]. - **Basis**: The spot market price is 1,710, and the basis is - 67. The spot price is at a discount to the futures price [8]. - **Inventory**: Steel mill inventory is 650.8 tons, port inventory is 195.1 tons, and independent coking enterprise inventory is 42.5 tons.

Report Summary 1. Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant information provided. 2. Core Views - **For Coking Coal**: The supply of coking coal has not fully recovered as coal mines in production areas are experiencing a mix of shutdowns and restarts. The market is in a state where prices are fluctuating, with some over - inflated coal prices dropping. The overall haulage is fair, and coal mines have relatively low inventory pressure. With high - level iron ore production providing strong support for raw material demand, but considering the game between steel and coke after the sixth round of coke price increases and cautious purchasing by steel and coking enterprises for high - priced coal, the short - term price of coking coal is expected to be on the strong side [2]. - **For Coke**: The cost pressure on coking enterprises has eased as raw coal prices have declined, but the overall capacity release remains limited. Due to the military parade, Shandong coking plants have received oral notices for environmental production restrictions of 30 - 50%, further constraining coke supply. With stable demand from steel mills, the short - term price of coke is expected to be stable and on the strong side [5]. 3.

Report Summary 1. Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant content provided. 2. Report's Core View - **For Coking Coal**: The supply of coking coal remains loose, with prices continuing to decline. The downstream procurement pace has slowed down due to the second round of coke price cuts, and new orders for mines have decreased. The overall market sentiment is pessimistic, and it is expected that the short - term coking coal price will be weak. There are factors like rising pig iron production and limited supply growth as positives, while slow procurement by coking and steel enterprises and weak steel prices are negatives [2][5]. - **For Coke**: As the price of raw coal continues to fall, the cost pressure on coking enterprises has eased, and the production level remains high. However, the poor trading in the finished product market and the decline in steel prices have led to reduced demand from steel mills, and there is still an intention to lower prices. It is expected that coke will remain weakly stable in the short term. Positive factors include rising pig iron production and increasing blast furnace operating rate, while squeezed profit margins of steel mills and over - drawn restocking demand are negatives [7][10]. 3.
