Group 1 - The trade agreement between the US and Japan was reached after eight rounds of negotiations, with significant implications for both economies [1][2] - The agreement includes a reduction of tariffs on Japanese products exported to the US from 25% to 15%, and Japan will invest $550 billion in the US, with the US retaining 90% of the profits [2][4] - Japan will open its market to US products, including automobiles, rice, and other agricultural goods, which indicates a major concession from Japan [2][4] Group 2 - In the short term, the agreement is seen as a relief for Japan, particularly for its automotive industry, which exports 1.37 million vehicles to the US, accounting for 34% of Japan's total exports to the US [4] - Following the announcement, the Nikkei 225 index surged by over 800 points, closing up 1,396.40 points or 3.51%, indicating increased market confidence [4] - However, the long-term implications suggest that Japan's concessions may lead to significant fiscal pressure and potential hollowing out of domestic industries as companies shift operations to the US [4][5] Group 3 - The trade agreement may alter the competitive landscape for China, as Japan's increased imports of US agricultural products could reduce its imports from other countries, including China [7] - Japanese companies may invest more in the US to avoid tariffs, potentially decreasing their investments in China, which could impact China's related industries [7] - The strengthened supply chain cooperation between Japan and the US in sectors like semiconductors and steel may marginalize Chinese industries, leading to challenges in stability and upgrading of China's industrial chain [7][8]

Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant content provided. Core Viewpoints - The market is influenced by a combination of domestic and international factors, with geopolitical risks, trade policies, and economic data all playing significant roles. Different commodities show various trends due to their unique supply - demand fundamentals and macro - economic environments [2][3]. - For most commodities, short - term price movements are characterized by oscillations, affected by both positive and negative factors. Some commodities may experience short - term price increases or decreases based on specific events and data [4][6]. Summary by Category Macro - Overseas: The US Senate passed the "Big Beautiful Act" with a narrow margin, and it awaits final approval in the House. Trump may reach a trade agreement with India but is skeptical about Japan, hinting at a potential increase in tariffs on Japanese imports to 30% - 35% from 24%. The US job openings in May reached a new high since November last year, and Powell suggested a "wait - and - see" approach [2]. - Domestic: President Xi Jinping chaired a meeting of the Central Financial and Economic Affairs Commission, emphasizing the promotion of a unified market and the development of the marine economy. The Caixin Manufacturing PMI in June rebounded to 50.4, returning to the expansion range. Stocks and bonds both rose, but the A - share market lacked a clear main line [3]. Precious Metals - International precious metal futures prices rose. COMEX gold futures rose 1.28% to $3349.90 per ounce, and COMEX silver futures rose 0.20% to $36.25 per ounce. Trade concerns, potential Fed rate cuts, and Middle - East geopolitical risks drove safe - haven funds into the precious metals market. However, the short - term sustainability of the price rebound is uncertain [4][5]. Copper - The price of copper showed an upward trend. The Shanghai copper main contract broke through, and the London copper price approached the $10,000 mark. The US manufacturing was in a downturn with inflation expectations rising. Globally, the shortage of concentrates and low inventory levels, along with expanding application areas, are expected to drive copper prices into a short - term oscillatory upward trend [6][7]. Aluminum - The price of aluminum showed a positive trend. The weakening US dollar index and low warehouse receipts supported the price. However, the market should also pay attention to the impact of the Senate's passage of the "Big and Beautiful" tax and expenditure bill and the upcoming July 9 trade tariff suspension deadline [8][9]. Alumina - Alumina futures showed a preference for oscillatory movement. The warehouse receipt inventory continued to decline, and the spot market had limited supply increments. The short - term price is expected to maintain a preference for oscillatory movement [11]. Zinc - The price of zinc declined slightly. Overseas refineries resumed production, and the supply disturbance weakened. Although downstream buying improved, the short - term fundamentals remained weak, and the price returned to a weakening trend [12][13]. Lead - The price of lead declined slightly. The supply of primary and recycled lead refineries is expected to recover in July, while consumption has not improved significantly. The short - term price is expected to oscillate weakly [14][15]. Tin - The price of tin showed a compensatory movement. The fundamentals were not significantly changed, with low trading volume. The supply and demand were both weak, and the high - price tin faced pressure [16]. Industrial Silicon - The price of industrial silicon faced resistance in its rebound. It was in the off - season with weakening demand. The supply side was generally weak, and the demand side in the photovoltaic industry was also lackluster. The short - term price is expected to enter a weak adjustment phase [17][18]. Lithium Carbonate - The price of lithium carbonate declined. The market sentiment cooled down, and the downstream replenishment ended. Although the cathode production in July may exceed expectations, the supply also increased, and high inventory may drag down the price [19][20]. Nickel - The price of nickel oscillated. The US economic data was mixed, and the cost side showed signs of loosening. The short - term fundamentals had no improvement, and the price oscillated [21][22]. Crude Oil - The price of crude oil oscillated. Geopolitical risks and industry logic were intertwined. Although the geopolitical heat decreased, the conflict was not completely over, and the supply side maintained a high - growth expectation [23]. Steel (Screw and Coil) - The steel futures price rebounded slightly. The market was affected by the news of production restrictions in Tangshan. The supply side's production was stable at a low level, and the demand side was weak due to high - temperature weather. The short - term price is expected to oscillate [24][25]. Iron Ore - The iron ore futures price oscillated and adjusted. The port inventory decreased slightly, but the supply pressure remained due to high overseas shipments. The demand for iron ore had some resilience, but the production of molten iron was expected to decline. The short - term price is expected to oscillate under pressure [26]. Soybean and Rapeseed Meal - The soybean meal and rapeseed meal prices may oscillate. The US soybean crushing volume in May was 6.11 million tons, and the precipitation in the US soybean - producing areas in the next two weeks was normal. The short - term price is expected to oscillate, and attention should be paid to weather changes, Sino - Canadian relations, and Sino - US trade progress [27][28]. Palm Oil - The palm oil price may oscillate. The production of Malaysian palm oil in June slowed down, and the export demand in Indonesia increased in May. The short - term price is expected to oscillate, and attention should be paid to the MPOB report [29][30].

Core Viewpoint - The article discusses the significant impact of tariff policies under the Trump administration, highlighting the adverse effects on U.S. businesses, supply chains, and the broader economy, while also emphasizing the potential long-term consequences for global trade governance [1][10]. Group 1: Impact on U.S. Businesses - Tariff-induced uncertainty has led to a decline in product demand, making it difficult for U.S. companies to pass on rising costs to customers, with some businesses facing potential bankruptcy [4]. - The Dallas Fed's manufacturing survey indicated a sharp decline in the business activity index to -35.8 in April, reflecting the turmoil caused by tariff policies [3]. - Many companies are experiencing increased operational costs due to the need to shift supply chains, with estimates suggesting an 18%-25% increase in operational costs for those relocating production [4].
