Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant content provided. Core Viewpoints - For electrolytic aluminum, demand has a marginal weakening expectation, but the inventory is at a low level. The center of aluminum price operation has a downward risk, and it is expected to fluctuate widely. Pay attention to the inventory inflection point. For alumina, the progress of new production capacity is the key focus, and the short - term price rebound space is limited, with an expected weak and volatile operation [2][68]. Summary by Related Catalogs Electrolytic Aluminum Macro - Sino - US talks have started, but the probability of reaching an agreement in the short term is limited. The US has multiple rounds of tariff talks with other countries. The US and the UK have reached a tariff agreement, canceling the 232 aluminum tariff on the UK. The US economic data is strong, and the Fed's stance is still hawkish, reducing the market's expectation of the number of Fed rate cuts to three times this year. China has introduced multiple economic stimulus policies [2]. Industry Supply - The supply side has little short - term change, with a slow increase in production. Future capacity changes will mainly involve small - scale restarts and replacement of production capacity [2]. Industry Demand - In April, the apparent consumption of aluminum increased by more than 7% year - on - year, and the cumulative increase from January to April was more than 5% year - on - year. However, the high - growth demand did not boost market confidence. The marginal weakening of demand is highly certain. The photovoltaic module production schedule in May is expected to be 55GW, a 10% month - on - month decrease. The home appliance production schedule increases year - on - year but weakens month - on - month. The orders of photovoltaic aluminum profile enterprises have declined. Last week, the operating rates of leading aluminum profile and aluminum plate - strip - foil enterprises decreased month - on - month, while the operating rate of aluminum cables increased month - on - month [2]. Inventory - The net import of aluminum ingots is expected to remain at a high level of over 160,000 tons. The inventory of aluminum ingots in the bonded area continues to increase. The social inventory of aluminum ingots briefly increased after the May Day holiday, which is in line with the seasonality. Based on historical data, the inventory can decrease by 120,000 - 180,000 tons in the whole month. With the social inventory of aluminum ingots at over 620,000 tons at the beginning of May, it is expected to drop to a low level of over 500,000 tons next week, which is expected to support the monthly spread [2]. Trading Logic - The impact of tariffs on global aluminum demand remains to be reflected at the micro - level. The subsequent low - level social inventory of aluminum ingots is expected to support the monthly spread. However, with the marginal weakening of demand in sectors such as photovoltaics and home appliances, pay attention to the consumption inflection point from May to June. The short - term strong supply - demand performance in China cannot reverse the annual surplus pressure. The expectation of marginal demand decline in the middle of the year remains unchanged. It is expected that the aluminum price will mainly fluctuate widely. To stably break through the 20,000 - yuan mark, the global annual aluminum consumption expectation needs to improve. To break below the 19,000 - yuan mark, the weakening expectation on the demand side needs to be realized. Since the smelting profit of electrolytic aluminum is still at a relatively high level of about 3,500 yuan in recent years, pay attention to the possibility of the off - season expectation being realized ahead of schedule from June to July, leading to a decline in aluminum price and a contraction in aluminum profit [2]. Trading Strategy - The actual impact of tariffs on the global economy remains to be seen. With the expectation of marginal demand weakening but a relatively low absolute inventory level, the aluminum price is expected to fluctuate widely. Pay attention to the inventory inflection point. Temporarily hold off on arbitrage and derivatives trading [2]. Alumina Raw Material End - After the May Day holiday, the bauxite market had a significant price adjustment. Large mining enterprises revised the long - term agreement prices for the second quarter. The price of Guinea's mainstream 45/3 ore was lowered to $75 per dry ton (CIF). The bulk market also weakened, with the 45/3 ore quotation falling below $75 per dry ton, and some low - quality ore quotes reaching $72 per dry ton. However, buyers remained cautious. As mining enterprises and traders accelerate shipments, the alumina price recovers, and the rainy season in Guinea approaches, the procurement activities of downstream alumina enterprises are expected to gradually pick up [68]. Supply End - After the May Day holiday, the number of domestic alumina enterprises undergoing phased maintenance and production reduction continued to increase, covering regions such as Guizhou, Guangxi, and Shanxi. The total operating capacity decreased by 550,000 tons compared with before the holiday, and the operating rate was 78.2% [68]. Trading Logic - A news item last week triggered market concerns about alumina supply and pushed up the price, but the actual impact and real situation need continuous tracking. In May, both maintenance and restart of alumina production capacity occurred, and new production capacity will gradually produce finished products. Pay attention to the impact of the progress of new production capacity on the supply - demand balance shifting from short - term tight balance to surplus. The price of imported bauxite is on a downward trend, and the alumina warehouse receipts are still at a high level. If the maintenance capacity recovers, there is a possibility of positive restart. It is expected that the rebound range of the alumina price will be relatively limited, and it will maintain a weak and volatile operation [68]. Trading Strategy - In the short term, the alumina price is expected to operate weakly and volatilely. If the supply - demand surplus pattern remains unchanged after the price rebound, consider short - selling. Temporarily hold off on arbitrage and option trading [68].

Investment Rating - The report maintains a "Positive" investment rating for the non-ferrous and steel industry [5]. Core Viewpoints - Iron ore prices have shown significant loosening, prompting continued attention to investment opportunities in the steel sector. The recent financial policies, including interest rate cuts, are expected to impact the market positively. The steel sector, having undergone three years of adjustment, now presents a favorable cost-performance ratio, with leading companies showing improved profitability and stability [8][14]. Summary by Sections Macro Overview - Iron ore prices are experiencing notable loosening, with expectations that May's iron and steel production may peak. The steel mills are likely to squeeze iron ore profits, leading to potential downward feedback on prices. The domestic demand-driven pricing in the steel sector is seen as advantageous given the high tariffs affecting external demand [8][14]. Steel Market - The consumption of rebar has decreased significantly, with a reported consumption of 2.14 million tons, a 26.67% decrease week-on-week. The overall price index for common steel has slightly declined by 0.71%, with rebar prices at 3,296 CNY/ton, down 0.8% week-on-week [15][37]. Industrial Metals - The copper smelting fees have deepened into negative territory, with the current rough smelting fee at -43.5 USD/thousand tons, a decrease of 8.21% week-on-week. The production costs for electrolytic aluminum have shown mixed trends, with costs in Xinjiang slightly increasing while those in Shandong have decreased significantly [17][29]. Precious Metals - Tariffs are expected to boost demand for safe-haven assets and inflation expectations, leading to a potential rise in gold prices. As of May 9, 2025, COMEX gold prices were reported at 3,329.1 USD/ounce, reflecting a week-on-week increase of 2.52% [17][37]. Investment Recommendations - For the steel sector, it is recommended to focus on leading companies such as Shandong Steel (600022, Buy) and Jiugang Steel (002110, Not Rated). In the non-ferrous sector, investment in Northern Rare Earth (600111, Buy) and Jinchuan Group (300748, Buy) is suggested [8][17].

1. Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant content provided. 2. Core Views of the Report - Copper: Overnight, copper first declined and then rose, with LME copper up 0.73% to $9,474.5/ton and SHFE copper up 0.72% to 78,140 yuan/ton. The domestic spot import window remained open. With the market focusing on US tariff progress and the improvement expectation continuing, and the short - term boost from China - US economic and trade talks, along with the strong demand in the copper peak season since April, there is no reason to be significantly bearish on copper prices in the short - term. Copper prices are expected to reach the range of 78,000 - 80,000 yuan/ton. However, investors should pay attention to the downstream's acceptance when copper prices enter the high - price range again and the performance of fundamentals and inventory when the peak season weakens [1]. - Aluminum: Alumina fluctuated higher, with AO2509 closing at 2,854 yuan/ton, up 4.05%. SHFE aluminum fluctuated strongly, with AL2506 closing at 19,570 yuan/ton, up 0.46%. Due to new maintenance in Shanxi and Guangxi and the acceleration of downstream stocking after the festival, alumina showed an upward correction in the short - term. In the medium - to - long - term, a strategy of shorting on rallies is recommended. For aluminum, due to limited inventory accumulation during the festival and weakening post - festival demand, short - term narrow - range adjustments are expected [1][2]. - Nickel: Overnight, LME nickel fell 0.35% to $15,575/ton, while SHFE nickel rose 0.26% to 124,000 yuan/ton. Short - term nickel ore is relatively strong, but if domestic primary nickel continues to accumulate inventory, the pressure on nickel prices will gradually emerge [2]. 3. Summary by Relevant Catalogs 3.1 Research Views - **Copper**: Overnight, LME copper rose 0.73% to $9,474.5/ton, SHFE copper rose 0.72% to 78,140 yuan/ton. US three - year inflation expectations reached a nearly three - year high, and the EU plans to sue the US at the WTO. LME copper inventory increased by 300 tons to 194,275 tons, COMEX copper inventory increased by 1,899 tons to 143,987 tons, and SHFE copper warehouse receipts decreased by 2,001 tons to 19,540 tons. Copper prices are expected to reach 78,000 - 80,000 yuan/ton, but pay attention to downstream acceptance and inventory performance when the peak season weakens [1]. - **Aluminum**: Alumina AO2509 closed at 2,854 yuan/ton, up 4.05%, and SHFE aluminum AL2506 closed at 19,570 yuan/ton, up 0.46%. SMM alumina price slightly adjusted down to 2,895 yuan/ton. New maintenance in Shanxi and Guangxi and accelerated downstream stocking after the festival led to short - term upward adjustment of alumina. In the long - term, short on rallies. Aluminum inventory accumulation was limited during the festival, and post - festival demand is weak [1][2]. - **Nickel**: LME nickel fell 0.35% to $15,575/ton, SHFE nickel rose 0.26% to 124,000 yuan/ton. LME nickel inventory decreased by 1,470 tons to 198,312 tons, and SHFE warehouse receipts decreased by 145 tons to 23,564 tons. Nickel iron prices weakened, and if domestic primary nickel accumulates inventory, it will pressure nickel prices [2]. 3.2 Daily Data Monitoring - **Copper**: On May 8, 2025, the price of flat - copper was 78,420 yuan/ton, with a decline in premium. LME registered + cancelled inventory increased by 300 tons, SHFE warehouse receipts decreased by 2,001 tons, and the total inventory decreased by 27,446 tons on a weekly basis [3]. - **Lead**: The average price of 1 lead in the Yangtze River was 16,750 yuan/ton, up 50 yuan/ton.

Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant content provided. Core Viewpoints of the Report - Copper: Overnight LME copper weakened with a 1.2% decline to $9,406/ton, and SHFE copper dropped 0.74% to CNY 77,450/ton. The Fed paused rate - cuts, boosting the dollar and suppressing non - ferrous metals. However, with an improving macro - outlook and strong copper demand since April leading to rapid inventory drawdown, there is no strong reason to be bearish on copper. Copper prices are expected to reach CNY 78,000 - 80,000/ton. Attention should be paid to downstream acceptance at high prices and inventory performance in late May [1]. - Aluminum: Alumina and沪铝 (SHFE aluminum) both trended weakly. Alumina may rebound slightly after the holiday driven by electrolytic aluminum, but will continue to be in an oversupply situation. Aluminum ingot de - stocking is slowing, and demand is weakening. It is recommended to short at high prices and consider bottom - fishing in stages [1][2]. - Nickel: Overnight LME nickel fell 0.38% to $15,630/ton, and SHFE nickel dropped 0.35% to CNY 123,640/ton. Stainless steel prices will oscillate with cost support at the bottom and demand constraints at the top. Short - term nickel ore is relatively strong, but if primary nickel inventory continues to accumulate, it will put pressure on nickel prices [2]. Summary by Directory Research Views - **Copper**: LME copper prices fell, and SHFE copper also declined. The Fed's pause in rate - cuts affected the market, but strong demand and inventory drawdown supported prices. The expected price range is CNY 78,000 - 80,000/ton [1]. - **Aluminum**: Alumina and SHFE aluminum prices were weak. Alumina is in an oversupply situation, and aluminum ingot demand is waning [1][2]. - **Nickel**: Nickel prices declined. Stainless steel prices will oscillate, and primary nickel inventory accumulation may pressure nickel prices [2]. Daily Data Monitoring - **Copper**: Market prices showed some changes, with inventory adjustments in different exchanges. For example, LME inventory decreased by 1,650 tons, and SHFE copper warehouse receipts dropped by 3,381 tons [1][3]. - **Lead**: Most prices remained stable, with minor changes in some indicators like lead ingot discounts [3]. - **Aluminum**: Prices of aluminum products changed, and inventory also adjusted. Alumina inventory increased by 43,000 tons on a weekly basis [3][4]. - **Nickel**: Nickel - related prices and inventory had some fluctuations, such as a decrease in SHFE nickel warehouse receipts by 416 tons [2][4]. - **Zinc**: Prices declined slightly, and inventory increased in some areas. For example, social inventory increased by 0.34 million tons on a weekly basis [5]. - **Tin**: The main settlement price increased by 0.6%, and inventory decreased in some cases [5]. Chart Analysis - **Spot Premium**: Charts show the historical trends of spot premiums for copper, aluminum, nickel, zinc, lead, and tin [7][8][9]. - **SHFE Near - Far Month Spread**: Charts display the historical trends of near - far month spreads for copper, aluminum, nickel, zinc, lead, and tin [12][16][18]. - **LME Inventory**: Charts present the historical trends of LME inventory for copper, aluminum, nickel, zinc, lead, and tin [19][21][23]. - **SHFE Inventory**: Charts show the historical trends of SHFE inventory for copper, aluminum, nickel, zinc, lead, and tin [24][26][29]. - **Social Inventory**: Charts display the historical trends of social inventory for copper, aluminum, nickel, zinc, stainless steel, and 300 - series [30][32][35]. - **Smelting Profit**: Charts present the historical trends of copper concentrate index, rough copper processing fees, aluminum smelting profit, nickel - iron smelting cost, zinc smelting profit, and stainless steel 304 smelting profit margin [37][39][42].
