供应端影响仍在,碳酸锂盘面偏强运行
Hua Tai Qi Huo· 2025-08-19 05:04
Report Industry Investment Rating - Unilateral: Cautiously bullish; Inter - term: None; Cross - variety: None; Spot - futures: None; Options: None [4] Core View - The lithium carbonate futures market is mainly affected by supply - side disturbances. With the current mine stoppages, it is expected that domestic lithium carbonate will start to significantly reduce inventory in September. If subsequent production cuts are substantial and last for a long time, the oversupply pattern of lithium carbonate may reverse, and the futures price may still have upward potential with certain consumption support [2] Market Analysis Summary - On August 18, 2025, the main lithium carbonate contract 2511 opened at 88,160 yuan/ton and closed at 89,240 yuan/ton, with a 4.67% change from the previous day's settlement price. The trading volume was 1,036,328 lots, and the open interest was 421,106 lots, up from 401,139 lots the previous day. The current basis was - 4,160 yuan/ton, and the number of lithium carbonate warehouse receipts was 23,555 lots, a change of 70 lots from the previous trading day [1] - According to SMM data, the price of battery - grade lithium carbonate was 82,500 - 86,700 yuan/ton, up 1,900 yuan/ton from the previous day; the price of industrial - grade lithium carbonate was 81,600 - 83,000 yuan/ton, also up 1,900 yuan/ton. The price of 6% lithium concentrate was 1,035 US dollars/ton, up 45 US dollars/ton from the previous day. Downstream procurement enthusiasm continued to increase, and market activity enhanced. Due to the rigid demand of some downstream enterprises and the reluctance of upstream and traders to sell, the spot transaction price of lithium carbonate continued to rise significantly [1] - According to the latest weekly data, the weekly output increased by 424 tons to 19,980 tons, with the output from salt lakes and spodumene increasing and the output from mica decreasing. The weekly inventory decreased by 162 tons to 142,256 tons, with an increase in intermediate - link inventory and a decrease in smelter inventory [1] Strategy Summary - The lithium carbonate futures market is mainly affected by supply - side disturbances. The mining end in Jiangxi is greatly affected, with large factories having stopped production and the resumption progress unknown. Other mines are required to complete relevant report writing by September 30, and the subsequent impact on production is uncertain. In addition, a lithium salt production enterprise in Qinghai may face the possibility of shutdown due to mining license issues. Based on the current mine stoppages, it is expected that domestic lithium carbonate will start to significantly reduce inventory from September. If subsequent production cuts are large and last for a long time, the oversupply pattern of lithium carbonate may change, and the futures price may still have upward potential with certain consumption support [2]

Group 1: Report Overview - Report Title: Supply-side disruptions continue to ferment, and the market rises rapidly by the daily limit - Weekly report on lithium carbonate by Zhongtai Futures' Non-ferrous Metals & New Materials Team (July 27, 2025) [1] - Research Team: An Ran, Wang Haicong [2] Group 2: Industry Investment Rating - Not provided in the document Group 3: Core Views - In July, the overall incremental production from restarts exceeded the reduction from maintenance, but the suspension of Zangge Lithium Industry in the salt lake segment led to a decline in overall production. The downstream demand was mainly based on on-demand procurement, showing differentiation and overall performing better than expected. The price of lithium carbonate rose rapidly, but the high price suppressed downstream demand, and there was also speculative demand. If the production suspension is implemented, it will affect the supply-demand pattern, and the surplus volume will be significantly reduced. If the production suspension expectation is not fulfilled, the fundamental surplus pattern remains unchanged, and the price of lithium carbonate will face a significant decline. In the short term, the price is boosted by news and shows emotional upward movement, and it will mainly fluctuate strongly until the expectation is verified. It is necessary to beware of the price decline risk caused by the failure of the production suspension expectation, and the short-term volatility will continue to increase. It is recommended to wait and see [12][13] Group 4: Section Summaries Part 01: Lithium Carbonate Overview - Supply: The overall incremental production from restarts in July exceeded the reduction from maintenance, but the suspension of Zangge Lithium Industry in the salt lake segment led to a 13.25% decline in salt lake production. The production at the mica end increased by 0.29%, and the production at the recycling end decreased by 0.35%. The import volume remained unchanged [12] - Demand: The weekly apparent demand decreased by 3.64%, and the available days of downstream inventory increased by 0.10%. The overall demand performance was better than expected [12] - Inventory: The lithium ore inventory at ports and warehouses decreased, while the overall inventory increased slightly. The inventory shifted from lithium salt plants to traders, and the surplus pattern continued to accumulate inventory. After the price rose rapidly, the warehouse receipts increased, but the growth rate still needed to be observed [12] - Cost and Profit: The cost of externally purchased spodumene and mica increased, and the profit of externally purchased spodumene decreased by 10.12%, while the profit of externally purchased mica increased by 1.93% [12] Part 02: Lithium Carbonate Industry Chain Prices - Lithium Carbonate Market: The report presents data on the futures and spot prices, basis, trading volume, and open interest of lithium carbonate [16] - Lithium Ore Prices: It shows the prices of spodumene concentrate and lithium mica [16] - Lithium Carbonate Prices: The prices of battery-grade and industrial-grade lithium carbonate, as well as the price difference between them, are provided.

The long - term performance of Chinese equity assets is still optimistic, and it is advisable to consider going long on stock index futures [8][9][10]. Precious Metals - On the previous trading day, gold and silver futures rose. The complex global trade and financial environment, the increase in the risk of global recession due to tariffs, and the possible passive easing of monetary policies are expected to drive up the price of gold. It is recommended to go long on gold futures on dips [11][12][13]. Rebar and Hot - Rolled Coils - On the previous trading day, rebar and hot - rolled coil futures showed weak oscillations. The downward trend of the real estate industry suppresses the price of rebar, but the peak - season demand may provide short - term support. The valuation of steel prices is low, and investors can focus on short - selling opportunities on rebounds [14]. Iron Ore - On the previous trading day, iron ore futures oscillated. The increase in iron ore demand and the decrease in supply and inventory support the price. The valuation of iron ore is relatively high, and investors can focus on buying opportunities at low levels [16][17]. Coking Coal and Coke - On the previous trading day, coking coal and coke futures fell sharply. The supply of coking coal is loose, and the trading atmosphere has weakened. The shipment of coke has improved, but the possibility of further price increases is low.
