Report Industry Investment Ratings - The investment ratings for steel, iron ore, coking coal, coke, and thermal coal are all "oscillating" [1][3][5][7] Core Views - The steel market has inventory pressure, and steel prices will oscillate. The iron ore market has high supply and inventory pressure, and ore prices will likely oscillate. The coking coal and coke markets are pessimistic, with prices running weakly. The thermal coal market has limited supply recovery and high prices, with short - term prices oscillating strongly [1][3][5][7] Summary by Related Catalogs Steel - **Market Analysis**: Yesterday, steel futures prices oscillated weakly, and spot prices followed suit. National building materials trading volume was 84,500 tons, a decrease of 8.15% from the previous day. Rebar production increased, inventory decreased, and apparent demand was better than expected. Hot - rolled coil production increased slightly, inventory decreased, and consumption increased month - on - month [1] - **Supply - Demand and Logic**: Building materials have supply pressure, but inventory reduction is significant, and apparent consumption is good. However, the consumption off - season is approaching, and consumption sustainability needs to be observed. The supply - demand pattern of strip steel has improved, but supply pressure remains, and inventory reduction pressure is still large. Short - term steel prices will oscillate, and future winter storage games and raw material support need to be observed [1] - **Strategy**: Unilateral trading is oscillating, and there are no strategies for inter - period, inter - variety, spot - futures, or options trading [2] Iron Ore - **Market Analysis**: Yesterday, iron ore futures oscillated. Spot prices were generally weak and stable, and trading was dull. The cumulative trading volume of main ports in the country was 918,000 tons, an increase of 27.32% from the previous day. This week, the average daily hot metal output decreased slightly, port inventory decreased slightly, and the number of stranded ships increased [3] - **Supply - Demand and Logic**: Iron ore supply remains high, and inventory pressure persists. With steel mills' losses and production cuts, hot metal output has decreased month - on - month. Port inventory reduction and a decline in arrivals support prices, so the callback space for ore prices is limited, and they will likely oscillate within a range. Future hot metal output and downstream inventory changes need to be observed [3] - **Strategy**: Unilateral trading is oscillating, and there are no strategies for inter - period, inter - variety, spot - futures, or options trading [4] Coking Coal and Coke - **Market Analysis**: Yesterday, the prices of black - sector commodities generally fell, and the prices of coking coal and coke futures continued to decline. Imported Mongolian coal prices weakened due to the decline in futures prices, trading was cold, and trading volume further declined. This week, coking coal production continued to increase, downstream coking plants and ports reduced inventory significantly, coke production decreased slightly, and overall inventory increased slightly [5] - **Supply - Demand and Logic**: For coking coal, domestic mines are gradually resuming production, Mongolian coal customs clearance remains high, and seaborne coal imports have also increased. Short - term coking coal supply has recovered month - on - month, and downstream demand is mainly for rigid needs, with insufficient speculative demand. The market focus is on the value of warehouse receipts. For coke, production restrictions in some areas have ended, supply has improved, hot metal output has decreased slightly, speculative demand has weakened, and coke supply and demand are in a weak balance [6] - **Strategy**: Coking coal and coke trading are both oscillating, and there are no strategies for inter - period, inter - variety, spot - futures, or options trading [6] Thermal Coal - **Market Analysis**: In the production area, coal prices have been slightly adjusted, and supply has tightened in some mines due to environmental protection and other factors, leading to a slight increase in prices. At present, coal prices are relatively high, and downstream buyers only purchase on demand, with speculative demand slowing down. At ports, inventory has accumulated due to navigation bans, market coal trading is sluggish, and downstream buyers are mainly waiting and watching. For imported coal, supply from Indonesia is low, and foreign mine quotes remain high due to existing profits [7] - **Supply - Demand and Logic**: Current supply recovery in the production area is limited, and downstream purchasing is more cautious. However, the consumption peak season has arrived, port inventory accumulation is lower than expected, and non - power demand downstream is strong. Short - term prices will oscillate strongly, and future overall consumption and inventory replenishment need to be observed [7]

Report Summary 1) Report Industry Investment Rating No information provided. 2) Core Viewpoints - The iron ore price is expected to maintain a high - level volatile trend under the game of long and short factors, and attention should be paid to the performance of steel [2]. - For the iron ore 2601 contract, the short - term and medium - term trends are volatile, and the intraday trend is weakly volatile. It is advisable to pay attention to the support at the MA5 line [1]. 3) Summary by Relevant Contents Variety Viewpoint Reference - For the iron ore 2601 contract, the short - term trend is volatile, the medium - term trend is volatile, and the intraday trend is weakly volatile. The reference view is to pay attention to the support at the MA5 line, and the core logic is that the commodity sentiment is warm and the ore price is at a high level [1]. Market Driving Logic - There are changes in both the supply and demand sides of iron ore. During the holiday, steel mill production was weakly stable, and the terminal consumption of ore continued to decline but remained at a relatively high level. Considering the increasing contradictions in the steel market, the positive effects are weakening [2]. - During the holiday, the arrival of iron ore at domestic ports was high. With high ore prices, overseas ore shipments were active, and the domestic ore supply will resume after the holiday, increasing the supply pressure [2]. - After the holiday, the commodity sentiment is warm, and the demand has certain resilience, which supports the ore price. However, the ore supply remains at a high level, the fundamental outlook is weakening, and the upward driving force is not strong [2].

Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant content provided. Core Viewpoints of the Report - The main contract price of rebar fluctuated higher with a daily increase of 0.98%. Although the strong raw materials boosted the steel market, the supply continued to rise while the demand was weak and stable. The fundamentals remained seasonally weak, and the sustainability of the upward drive was questionable. It is expected that the steel price will continue to fluctuate. Attention should be paid to the demand changes [4]. - The main contract price of hot-rolled coil oscillated upward with a daily increase of 0.94%. The strong raw materials supported the steel price to rise, but the supply was high and stable while the demand weakened. The fundamental contradictions were accumulating. The subsequent trend will continue to be under pressure and oscillate at a low level, and the risk of tariffs after the "exemption period" should be guarded against [4]. - The main contract price of iron ore was strong with a daily increase of 1.99%. The demand was resilient and the market sentiment improved, but the supply pressure remained and the demand growth space was limited. The fundamentals were difficult to improve continuously, and the upward drive was not strong. It is expected that the ore price will continue to fluctuate. Attention should be paid to the performance of finished products [4].

Market Outlook - For rebar, the supply pressure is increasing as the weekly output increased by 5.66 tons and reached a relatively high level this year. The demand is weak and stable, with the weekly apparent demand increasing slightly by 0.72 tons and the high-frequency transactions remaining low. It is expected that the steel price will continue to fluctuate [38]. - For hot-rolled coil, the supply pressure is still large as the weekly output increased by 1.79 tons and remained at a high level this year. The demand is weakening, with the weekly apparent demand decreasing by 4.44 tons. The subsequent trend will continue to be under pressure and oscillate at a low level, and the tariff risk after the "exemption period" should be guarded against [38]. - For iron ore, the demand is resilient as the terminal consumption continues to rise, but the supply pressure remains as the port arrivals and miner shipments have both reached high levels this year. It is expected that the ore price will continue to fluctuate [39].

1. Report Industry Investment Rating - No relevant content provided 2. Core Viewpoints of the Report - The iron ore 2509 contract is expected to show a volatile trend in the short - term and medium - term, and a slightly stronger volatile trend intraday. Attention should be paid to the support at the MA10 line. The core logic is that demand is performing well and the ore price is oscillating at a low level [1]. - With the steel mills' active production during the peak season, the terminal consumption of ore has been continuously rising. Coupled with the pre - holiday restocking by steel mills, the ore demand is strong, which supports the ore price. However, the ore inventory has been continuously accumulating under high demand, indicating that the fundamentals have not substantially improved. With the expected increase in supply, the concern of medium - term oversupply remains. Under the game of long and short factors, the ore price is expected to continue the low - level oscillating trend, and attention should be paid to the performance of finished steel products [2]. 3. Summaries Based on Related Catalogs 3.1 Variety Viewpoint Reference - For the iron ore 2509 contract, the short - term trend is volatile, the medium - term trend is volatile, and the intraday trend is slightly stronger volatile. The reference view is to pay attention to the support at the MA10 line, and the core logic is good demand and low - level oscillation of the ore price [1]. 3.2 Market Driving Logic - The strong demand from steel mills' production and restocking supports the ore price. But the continuous accumulation of ore inventory and the expected increase in supply lead to the concern of medium - term oversupply. The ore price is expected to oscillate at a low level, and the performance of finished steel products should be monitored [2].
