1. Report Industry Investment Ratings No relevant content was found in the provided reports. 2. Core Views of the Reports Copper - Near the Sino - US tariff extension deadline, tariff negotiation rhythm may drive short - term trading. The weak US employment data leads to expectations of further monetary easing by the Fed. The widening COMEX - LME spread attracts non - US copper to the US. In the long - term, copper supply shortage will support the price bottom, but short - term price is affected by demand changes and tariff negotiations [1]. Aluminum - After the holiday, the alumina futures price is under pressure, and the aluminum price fluctuates. The alumina supply is in excess, and the demand is weak. The aluminum market is in a tight balance, with high - price suppressing procurement and low inventory levels. The short - term prices of alumina and aluminum are expected to be range - bound [3]. Aluminum Alloy - After the holiday, the casting aluminum alloy futures price strengthens. The cost is supported, but the supply is restricted by raw materials and policies. The demand recovers moderately, and the inventory increase slows down. The short - term ADC12 price is expected to remain high and volatile [5]. Zinc - The supply of zinc is loose, and the demand is not outstanding. The short - term zinc price may be driven by the macro - environment, but the upward elasticity is limited. It may maintain a range - bound movement unless there are significant changes in demand or supply [8]. Tin - The supply of tin is tight, and the demand is weak. After the sharp decline of the outer - plate metal, the tin price may fall, but considering the strong fundamentals, it can be considered to buy at low prices after the risk is released. The future price depends on the supply recovery in Myanmar [10]. Nickel - The nickel price fluctuates widely. The macro - environment is uncertain, and the policy expectations of the Indonesian ore end are increasing. The cost is supported, but the medium - term supply is loose. The short - term price is expected to be range - bound [12]. Stainless Steel - The stainless steel price fluctuates narrowly. The macro - environment is uncertain, the raw material price is firm, and the supply pressure is increasing. The demand improvement is not obvious, and the inventory reduction is slow. The short - term price is expected to be range - bound [13]. Lithium Carbonate - The lithium carbonate futures price fluctuates. The supply path is becoming clear, but the news may bring variables. The demand is optimistic, and the inventory is decreasing. The short - term price is expected to be range - bound [14]. 3.

10月10日，北方稀土、包钢股份两大稀土巨头宣布提价。此次上调后，2025年第四季度稀土精矿交易价 格相较于第三季度价格环比上涨约37%，创下自2023年第二季度以来的最高值。 中金公司指出，中国在稀土领域拥有领先地位，2024年开采份额占全球的61%，但更为重要的是90%以 上的精炼环节都集中在中国。稀土管制作为"先手"在4月就已经出现在"谈判桌"上，然而10月9日的一系 列举措更为严厉，不仅将在11月8日对超硬材料、部分稀土设备和原辅料、5种中重稀土、锂电池和人造 石墨负极材料实施出口管制，同时也将即日起对境外稀土出口和稀土技术实施管制。 新规要求跨国公司销售的商品中，如果含有中国稀土矿产占产品价值的0.1%或以上，则需要获得中国 政府的许可，这将使得跨国科技公司的关键产业链面临挑战。值得关注的是，商务部新闻发言人表示， 中国的出口管制不是禁止出口，只要是用于民用用途的、合规的出口申请，都可以获得批准，相关企业 无须担心。 东方财富指出，中国对稀土产业全方位管控后，全球稀土供给增长预期或下调，利好国内稀土产业高质 量发展。稀土永磁材料与人形机器人等产业密切相关，板块未来或受益于新兴产业的需求预期增长。 盘 ...

Group 1: Report Overview - Report Name: Copper Futures Daily Report [1] - Date: October 13, 2025 [2] - Researcher: Zhang Ping, Yu Feifei, Peng Jinglin [3][4] Group 2: Investment Rating - The report does not mention the industry investment rating. Group 3: Core View - The copper market is in a context of mine - end production cuts spreading to the smelting end. Short - term domestic demand is suppressed by high copper prices. The previous highs are expected to still suppress copper prices in the short term, but considering the continuous capital enthusiasm and long - term favorable factors in fundamentals and macro - aspects, copper prices are expected to oscillate and consolidate at high levels [10]. Group 4: Market Review and Operation Suggestions - Market Performance: Both Shanghai copper and LME copper reached near previous highs and then fell back. Shanghai copper's total open interest increased by 13,557 lots. The contango structure of the nearby contracts narrowed. Spot copper prices rose by 940 to 86,680, and the spot premium rose by 5 to 20. The domestic - to - overseas price ratio dropped below 8, and the spot import loss exceeded 1,000 yuan [10]. - Market Outlook: Short - term price suppression from previous highs exists, but with continuous capital enthusiasm and long - term favorable factors, copper prices will oscillate at high levels [10]. Group 5: Industry News - Codelco's copper production in August dropped to 93,400 tons due to an accident at the El Teniente mine, which then stopped production [11]. - Zijin Copper's 200,000 - ton/year cathode copper expansion project entered the environmental assessment acceptance publicity stage.

Aluminum prices are expected to face limitations due to high costs affecting purchasing sentiment [8][9] - Gold prices are influenced by the U.S. entering a rate cut cycle and political risks from the government shutdown. If the shutdown is resolved and economic data remains strong, gold may face short-term corrections [9][10] - Lithium supply concerns have eased with approvals for resource reports, but short-term oversupply pressures may affect prices. Rare earth prices are expected to remain volatile, influenced by domestic export policies and overseas demand [9][10] Pharmaceutical and Biotechnology Industry - The recent World Lung Cancer Conference highlighted the R&D capabilities of Chinese pharmaceutical companies.
