Core Viewpoint - UBS report indicates that Freeport-McMoRan, a major U.S. mining company, has announced a temporary production halt at its Grasberg mine in Indonesia due to a mining accident, leading to a larger-than-expected reduction in copper output for the next two years, which will exacerbate the anticipated supply gap in the global copper market by 2026 [1] Group 1: Company Impact - Freeport-McMoRan's temporary production halt at the Grasberg mine is a significant event impacting its copper output forecasts [1] - The company’s revised copper production outlook is more pessimistic than market expectations, indicating potential challenges ahead [1] Group 2: Market Outlook - UBS maintains an optimistic outlook on copper prices despite the production issues, suggesting a bullish sentiment in the market [1] - Global refined copper production is forecasted to be 27.853 million tons in 2025, with demand at 27.586 million tons, resulting in a supply-demand balance deficit of 267,000 tons for that year [1] - For 2026, refined copper production is expected to reach 28.062 million tons, while demand is projected at 28.482 million tons, leading to a forecasted supply-demand balance deficit of 421,000 tons [1] - The supply-demand balance deficits are expected to worsen in subsequent years, with projections of negative 510,000 tons in 2027, negative 756,000 tons in 2028, and negative 1.224 million tons in 2029 [1] Group 3: Investment Recommendations - UBS recommends several mining stocks, including Anglo American, Teck Resources, Antofagasta, and Zijin Mining, as key investment opportunities in the sector [1]

1. Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant information provided. 2. Core Viewpoints of the Report - The copper market may maintain high - level volatility in the short term. Supply - side factors such as the resumption of mine shipments and high domestic smelting capacity release pose pressure, but export diversion and the commissioning of bonded mixed ore support domestic spot premiums. On the demand side, the continuous decline in the operating rate of refined copper rod enterprises restricts the upside space, and the weakening of the US dollar provides short - term bullish support [6]. 3. Summaries According to Relevant Catalogs 3.1 Daily Market Summary 3.1.1 Copper Futures Market Data Changes - On June 30, the main contract of SHFE copper closed at 79,800 yuan/ton, a slight drop of 0.08% from the previous day. The LME copper price slightly declined from $9,896/ton to $9,879/ton, maintaining a high - level volatility pattern. The premiums of premium copper, flat - water copper, and wet - process copper in the spot market all increased, and the basis strengthened overall [1]. - SHFE copper inventory decreased by 650 tons to 90,625 tons, with two consecutive weeks of destocking. LME copper inventory continued to increase by 505 tons to 25,851 tons. The holding volume of the LME 0 - 3 copper contract increased by 4,590 lots to 292,214 lots [2]. 3.1.2 Industry Chain Supply - Demand and Inventory Changes - Supply side: Overseas mine disturbances eased, and the domestic smelting sector showed differentiation. The spot supply in Jiangsu was tight due to export plans, while the warehouse receipts in Shanghai and Guangdong increased, and the smelting plant operating rate remained high [3]. - Demand side: The operating rate of refined copper rod enterprises continued to decline. During the week from June 20th to 26th, it decreased by 1.81 percentage points to 74.01%, and some enterprises planned further production cuts and inventory reduction at the beginning of July. Downstream buyers showed obvious high - price aversion, with weak spot trading in North China [4]. - Inventory side: The pressure of overseas visible inventory increased, with the LME inventory increasing by more than 2,000 tons in two consecutive weeks to 25,851 tons, and the COMEX inventory also increasing to 209,281 short tons. The destocking pace of domestic SHFE inventory slowed down, and there was a risk of spot market liquidity after export diversion [5]. 3.2 Industry Chain Price Monitoring - The price of SMM 1 copper decreased by 210 yuan/ton to 80,090 yuan/ton on June 30, a decrease of 0.26%.

The continuous decrease of warehouse receipts in Jiangsu was due to the export plans of local smelters [9]. - On June 30, First Quantum Minerals' Cobre Panama copper mine started to transport copper ore, which may increase supply [9]. - From June 20th to 26th, the weekly operating rate of domestic main refined copper rod enterprises decreased to 74.01%, a decrease of 1.81 percentage points, lower than the expected value by 2.22 percentage points, and an increase of 4.99 percentage points year - on - year.

Summary of Copper Market Conference Call Industry Overview - The conference call focuses on the copper market, particularly in relation to the impact of the U.S. 232 tariff policy and its implications for global supply and demand dynamics [1][2][33]. Key Points and Arguments 1. **Supply Tightness**: Prior to the implementation of the 232 tariff, the U.S. has shifted approximately 400,000 tons of copper from non-U.S. regions, with an expected additional 200,000 tons in the coming months, leading to tight supply in non-U.S. markets [1][2]. 2. **Price Projections**: Post-implementation, copper prices may experience a slight pullback, but the decline is expected to be limited, providing a potential buying opportunity. The first target for LME copper price is projected at $11,000 per ton, while domestic prices are expected to range between 81,000-82,000 CNY per ton [1][4]. 3. **Annual Production Growth**: The annual growth rate for copper production has been adjusted to 0.6%, with an estimated increase of 130,000 tons, based on data from 17 major copper mining companies that account for 55% of global supply [1][5]. 4. **Consumption Growth**: Consumption growth has also been adjusted to 0.6% due to the impact of tariffs and high interest rates, maintaining a tight balance in the copper market [1][5]. 5. **Market Dynamics**: Copper is noted to have the strongest fundamentals within the non-ferrous metals sector, with limited supply from mines and tight spot supply due to the 232 tariff [1][6][7]. 6. **Investor Behavior**: Commodity investors are increasingly favoring copper, viewing it as a hedge or allocation asset, with long-term funds showing significant interest in the copper market [1][7]. 7. **Price Resilience**: The current market environment indicates that copper prices are more likely to rise than fall, supported by strong fundamentals. Since April 2, copper prices have rebounded significantly, outperforming other commodities [1][8]. 8. **Future Supply Dynamics**: The copper supply is expected to diversify, with significant contributions from regions like Africa and North America, while the U.S. may face oversupply conditions post-232 tariff implementation [3][16][33]. 9. **Impact of Tariffs**: The 232 tariff is anticipated to create a "copper island" in the U.S., leading to a surplus domestically while non-U.S. markets experience extreme tightness [3][33]. 10. **Long-term Outlook**: The expectation for 2026 is optimistic, with potential liquidity boosts from interest rate cuts, which could lead to a demand turnaround and price increases beyond early 2024 highs [3][35]. Additional Important Insights - **Copper Quality Decline**: The decline in copper ore grades has significantly impacted production increments, particularly in South America, leading to a continuous decrease in output since 2022 [12]. - **Role of Small and Medium Enterprises**: Small and medium-sized mining companies are playing an increasingly vital role in global copper production, contributing more significantly to growth compared to larger firms [13][14]. - **Inflation and Price Dynamics**: The divergence between copper prices and inflation expectations is attributed to supply constraints not being fully accounted for in demand and cost expectations [15]. - **U.S. Demand Share**: U.S. copper demand constitutes about 6% to 7% of global demand, indicating a relatively small but significant market influence [40]. This summary encapsulates the critical insights and projections regarding the copper market as discussed in the conference call, highlighting the interplay between supply, demand, pricing, and macroeconomic factors.
