Report Industry Investment Rating - Not provided Core Viewpoints of the Report - The strong "counter - attack" of coking coal futures prices is related to supply - side low - valuation - matching production cuts, 6 - 7 month production and import seasonality, high - level iron - water production, and market expectation revisions. The futures price has changed from long - term discount to premium. Given the current small premium and the upcoming resumption of domestic coking coal mines, excessive bullish expectations for coking coal futures prices are not advisable. The valuation decline space caused by the previous concentrated short - view on coking coal futures prices will be significantly revised upwards [12][14] Summary by Relevant Catalogs 1. Mongolian coal suspends customs clearance due to holidays, and the effect of domestic coal production cuts emerges - Recently, the trading of Mongolian coal has improved significantly due to the premium opportunity provided by the futures price. During the Naadam Festival from July 11th to July 15th, the three major Mongolian ports were closed for 5 days, leading to an expected short - term supply tightening. The price of Mongolian No. 5 raw coal at the port increased from 705 yuan/ton in the second half of the month to 740 - 750 yuan/ton [1] - Since May, domestic coking coal mines have successively cut production. State - owned large mines have poor sales and some mines are forced to cut production due to full storage; small mines have many accidents and the number of mines under suspension and rectification has increased since June; some private mines in certain regions have cut or even stopped production due to poor sales and production losses [1] - As production cuts continue and expand, the inventory of coking coal in some invisible links has been significantly digested, and the visible carbon element inventory has shown a significant decline since mid - June [3] 2. The sentiment of futures - spot trading surges, bringing vitality to spot trading - The reversal of futures price sentiment has provided space for futures - spot arbitrage and selling hedging, leading to a surge in futures - spot trading sentiment, which has driven the spot market of coking coal. The rate of unsuccessful auctions in the spot market has rapidly declined, and the prices of some coal types have rebounded significantly. For example, the price of lean coking coal in Shanxi has increased from 930 yuan/ton to 970 yuan/ton, and the coking coal warehouse - receipt prices in Shanxi (except Mongolian coal) have also risen to 875 - 920 yuan/ton [5] - The price of Australian imported low - sulfur main coking coal converted into warehouse - receipt price is close to the futures price, and the trading of imported coal at ports has become more active. On the 2nd, the price index of Australian Peak Downs hard coking coal rose by 9.7 to 196.85. The significant improvement in coking coal spot liquidity, combined with the small - scale replenishment of downstream coking plants and steel mills, will promote coal mine sales and drive up prices [7][9] 3. High - level iron - water production is maintained during the off - season, and the "anti - involution" expectation protects steel - making profits - Thanks to the relatively weak prices of coke and iron ore and the continuous support of export resilience, the current steel prices and steel - making profit levels are not bad. During the off - season of construction demand, iron - water production has not significantly decreased and remains at a high level of 242,000 tons per day. Although there are expectations of phased production restrictions in Tangshan, the national iron - water production is expected to remain at a relatively high level due to profit incentives [10] - The widespread discussion of "anti - involution" has led to a good expectation of future steel - making profits in the market. In the past, during the expectation stage of production restrictions or flat - control, both steel prices and raw material prices were driven upwards. The "anti - involution" expectation has also led to a re - discussion of the valuation repair of bulk commodities with over - capacity and valuations close to cost support [12]

Core Viewpoint - The article discusses the recent developments in the coal market, particularly focusing on Mongolian coal and domestic coking coal, highlighting price increases and supply adjustments due to production cuts and seasonal factors [3][5][12]. Group 1: Mongolian Coal Market - Mongolian coal prices have increased from 705 CNY/ton to 740-750 CNY/ton due to supply tightening expectations during the Naadam Festival [3]. - The recent holiday closure of three major ports in Mongolia has contributed to a temporary supply reduction [3]. Group 2: Domestic Coking Coal Production - Domestic coking coal production has seen reductions since May, driven by poor sales at state-owned mines and increased accidents at smaller mines, leading to a notable decrease in visible carbon inventory since mid-June [3][5]. - The reduction in production has started to show effects, with previously hidden inventory being consumed more effectively [5]. Group 3: Market Dynamics and Price Movements - The recent shift in futures market sentiment has led to increased trading activity, with spot market prices for certain coal types rebounding significantly, such as Shanxi's lean coking coal price rising from 930 CNY/ton to 970 CNY/ton [7]. - The price of Australian low-sulfur coking coal has also seen a notable increase, with the index rising by 9.7% to 196.85 [9]. Group 4: Steel Production and Market Expectations - Steel prices remain stable due to the relative weakness of coke and iron ore prices, with daily pig iron production maintaining a high level of 2.42 million tons [10]. - Discussions around "anti-involution" have positively influenced market expectations for future steel profits, suggesting potential upward pressure on both steel and raw material prices [12]. Group 5: Future Outlook - The article suggests that while there is a current upward trend in coking coal prices, caution is advised regarding overly bullish expectations, as sustained high production and inventory replenishment from downstream sectors are necessary for further price increases [12].
