Group 1 - Recent copper prices have been fluctuating at high levels, with domestic copper prices ranging between 78,000-80,000 CNY/ton and London copper prices between 9,600-9,900 USD/ton, indicating a stable market with both upper and lower limits [4] - The Federal Reserve Chairman's dovish remarks at the Jackson Hole meeting have increased expectations for a rate cut in September, with the probability now at 85.2% [7][8] - The U.S. labor market shows signs of risk, with a slowdown in job growth and a potential increase in unemployment rates due to reduced immigration affecting labor supply [7][8] Group 2 - On the supply side, tight copper raw material supply and the approaching traditional peak season are positive factors, while the implementation of U.S. copper tariffs is expected to increase supply outside the U.S. [12] - Global copper production from major mining companies saw a slight year-on-year increase of 0.9%, with some companies reducing their production guidance for the year [12][15] - The recent policy changes regarding recycled copper may lead to increased costs for recycling companies, potentially reducing their output and increasing refined copper consumption [15] Group 3 - Downstream demand for copper is expected to remain resilient despite weak real estate data and declining production in the home appliance sector, with a slight increase in refined copper consumption anticipated in August [16] - The U.S. copper tariffs have led to a significant increase in domestic copper inventories, and the expected drop in imports post-tariff implementation may increase supply pressure in the market [19] - Overall, if global trade conditions do not worsen, copper prices are expected to stabilize and trend upwards due to macroeconomic and supply-demand support [22]

Qi Huo Ri Bao Wang· 2025-08-27 00:41
Group A: Macroeconomic Factors - The core factors influencing copper pricing are expected to shift back to macroeconomic and fundamental aspects in the second half of 2025, as the uncertainty surrounding tariff policies may not be as pronounced as in the first half [1] - The U.S. economy is currently experiencing a "weak but not declining" phase, with GDP growth rates of -0.5% and 3% in Q1 and Q2 2025 respectively, indicating a weakening growth momentum [2] - The Federal Reserve's interest rate decisions are closely tied to inflation and employment reports, with current inflation pressures not sufficient to prevent potential rate cuts [3] Group B: Supply Constraints - Global copper mine production from January to May 2025 reached 9.524 million tons, a year-on-year increase of 3.27%, but the growth rate is expected to be below 2.5% for the year due to potential production disruptions [4] - The continuous decline in spot Treatment Charges (TC) has led to a negative TC environment, yet overall smelting output remains resilient due to locked long-term TC contracts and by-product revenues [5] - The balance between mining and smelting capacities needs to improve through sustained mining capacity release and smelting capacity optimization [6] Group C: Demand Resilience - Global refined copper consumption increased by 3.6% year-on-year from January to May 2025, with China's consumption growing robustly at 12.18%, offsetting declines in the EU, U.S., and Japan [8] - Strong demand in China is primarily driven by investments in the power grid and renewable energy sectors, with total investment in the power grid exceeding 825 billion yuan in 2025 [9] - Despite the resilience in demand, challenges may arise in the second half of 2025 due to high base effects from 2024 and potential weakening in appliance and photovoltaic sectors [9] Group D: Inventory Trends - Current global visible copper inventory stands at approximately 600,000 tons, with a reduction of about 200,000 tons from March to June 2025, and a potential for further reduction in the upcoming peak seasons [10] - Concerns about high COMEX copper inventory levels exist, but a decrease in copper material imports due to tariffs may stimulate domestic processing demand, helping to alleviate excess inventory [10] Group E: Overall Market Outlook - The overall fundamental situation for copper appears favorable, with LME copper prices expected to fluctuate between $9,400 and $10,000 per ton [15] - Supply constraints and resilient demand provide a solid support for prices, while risks include inflation pressures limiting the Fed's rate-cutting ability and excess COMEX inventory suppressing price increases [15]

Report Industry Investment Rating - Not provided in the content Core Views - The US non-farm payroll data fell short of expectations, strengthening market expectations for a September interest rate cut, causing the US dollar index to decline and supporting the rebound of copper prices [4]. - The Shanghai copper market has largely priced in previous negative factors, and as domestic terminal demand gradually emerges from the off-season, downstream inventory replenishment demand has been stimulated [4]. - After the US exemption of import tariffs on refined copper, global copper resources may shift to non-US markets in the second half of the year, leading to a recent continuous increase in inventories of LME copper and Shanghai copper [4]. - In July, the production of electrolytic copper reached a record high, and high production is expected to continue in August. Coupled with the rebound of import processing fees, supply pressure remains [4]. - Shanghai copper will maintain a volatile pattern, with a mix of bullish and bearish factors: the decline of the US dollar provides support, but the shift to a looser supply-demand balance and inventory accumulation limit the upside space [5].

Guan Tong Qi Huo· 2025-08-12 11:30
Group 1: Investment Rating - No investment rating information is provided in the report. Group 2: Core Views - The suspension of a 24% ad - valorem tariff on Chinese goods (including those from Hong Kong and Macau) for 90 days starting from August 12, 2025, and the US CPI data will impact US inflation and the Fed's decision on interest rate cuts. The supply side remains at a high level, with increased copper concentrate imports, and the demand side is in the off - season. The market is currently in a narrow - range fluctuation, waiting for new drivers [1]. - The LME copper inventory has significantly increased, overseas Chilean copper mines resumed operations on the 10th, while the domestic inventory is low and the smelters' profit is negative. The demand side is in the off - season, and downstream buyers prefer low - priced goods. The market is mainly in the range - bound fluctuation [1]. Group 3: Summary by Related Catalogs Strategy Analysis - Supply: The maintenance of an Indonesian smelter was extended until mid - August. In July, China imported 2.56 million tons of copper concentrate and its ores, a year - on - year increase of 18.24% and a month - on - month increase of 8.94%. As of August 8, the domestic spot TC was - 37.98 dollars per dry ton, and RC was - 3.79 cents per pound. The TC/RC fees continued to stabilize and rebound. There is currently no sign of a decline in copper production, and only one smelter has a maintenance plan in August [1]. - Demand: Due to the hot and rainy weather, the downstream terminal demand is weak. The rise in copper prices has suppressed the downstream's purchasing sentiment. The terminal power grid performs well, but the construction and real estate sectors are a drag. The SHFE inventory has not significantly increased after the copper tariff was implemented, which supports the domestic copper price to some extent [1]. Futures and Spot Market Conditions - Futures: The Shanghai copper futures opened low and closed high, showing a strong intraday oscillation, with the closing price at 79,020 yuan per ton. The long positions of the top 20 were 99,690 lots, a decrease of 1,886 lots; the short positions were 102,345 lots, a decrease of 3,260 lots [4]. - Spot: The spot premium in East China was 140 yuan per ton, and in South China was 5 yuan per ton. On August 11, 2025, the LME official price was 9,722 dollars per ton, and the spot premium was 78.50 dollars per ton [4]. Fundamental Tracking - Inventory: The SHFE copper inventory was 26,300 tons, an increase of 3,021 tons from the previous period. As of August 11, the copper inventory in the Shanghai Free Trade Zone was 76,200 tons, an increase of 200 tons from the previous period. The LME copper inventory was 155,000 tons, a slight decrease of 700 tons from the previous period. The COMEX copper inventory was 265,200 short tons, an increase of 1,056 short tons from the previous period [9].
