Summary of Key Points from the Conference Call Industry Overview - The conference call focuses on the copper and aluminum sectors, highlighting the ongoing value reassessment driven by interest rate cut expectations and inflows from insurance capital [1][2]. Core Insights and Arguments - **Interest Rate Impact**: Enhanced expectations for interest rate cuts are expected to lead to a resonance of value and cyclical capital inflows in the copper and aluminum sectors, improving marginal pricing power [3][4]. - **Supply Constraints**: The copper supply side remains tight, with a projected increase of only 370,000 tons in 2025, significantly lower than previous forecasts. This includes reductions from major mines, exacerbated by U.S. investigations affecting global inventory movements [6][7]. - **Valuation Levels**: The copper sector is currently valued below historical averages, with companies like Zijin Mining showing recovery from lows but still reflecting market concerns about demand and macroeconomic expectations [9][10]. - **Aluminum Sector Attributes**: The aluminum sector is characterized by high dividends and low valuations, with leading companies like Hongqiao seeing gradual increases in valuation centers. The sector's overall PB and PE ratios are low, with high dividend yields indicating strong long-term growth potential [13][14]. Additional Important Insights - **Investment Opportunities**: Recommended companies for investment include Zijin Mining and Luoyang Molybdenum, with a focus on undervalued stocks in the Hong Kong market. Other notable mentions include China Nonferrous Mining, Minmetals Resources, and China Gold International, which are expected to see significant volume increases [12][17]. - **Market Trends**: The copper and aluminum markets are in a stable rebound phase, with strong demand resilience despite short-term fluctuations in solar photovoltaic orders. Long-term aluminum demand growth is projected to outpace that of copper and steel [15][16]. - **Insurance Capital Inflows**: Insurance capital is projected to flow into the copper and aluminum sectors, with estimates of annual inflows around 700 to 800 billion, indicating strong confidence in price stability [5][8]. Conclusion - The copper and aluminum sectors present significant investment opportunities due to favorable macroeconomic conditions, supply constraints, and attractive valuations. Investors are encouraged to focus on long-term growth potential while being mindful of short-term market fluctuations.

Core View - The Shanghai copper futures market is expected to be volatile and weak in the short term due to multiple factors, including geopolitical tensions, inflation expectations, potential Fed rate cuts, supply shortages, and weakening demand [1]. Summary by Section Strategy Analysis - The Shanghai copper futures market opened low and moved lower in the afternoon. Trump will decide whether to attack Iran in two weeks, and although the conflict has eased, oil prices have risen, increasing inflation expectations. Trump has called on the Fed to cut rates for two consecutive days, and the market still expects two rate cuts this year. The Fed's rate cuts will affect the US dollar index and guide the price trend of the non - ferrous market. On the fundamental side, the port inventory of refined copper ore has decreased significantly this week, and copper imports have also declined. The cost of smelters has increased, intensifying the market's tight supply expectations. On the demand side, the downstream start - up rate has slowed down, the enthusiasm for purchasing has decreased, and the trading volume has weakened. The terminal wire and cable industry remains resilient, but the production schedule of the home appliance industry has shrunk, and the real estate industry has also dragged down the market [1].

Domestic smelting enterprises' export volume was slightly higher than expected. Global visible copper inventory was in a de - stocking channel, and domestic inventory was difficult to accumulate quickly. Copper fundamentals and inventory support remained, and attention should be paid to whether orders showed signs of weakness in the off - season next week [1] Group 3: Aluminum Price and Inventory Data - From June 12 - 18, 2025, Shanghai aluminum ingot price increased by 280, and LME inventory decreased by 2100. Other data such as premium and import profit also changed [1] Core View - Supply increased slightly, and aluminum ingot imports were large from January to April. June demand was expected to weaken seasonally, with a supply - demand gap. 6 - 7 months' inventory decline was gentle. Short - term fundamentals were okay, and attention should be paid to demand. The monthly positive spread could be held if the absolute price fell [1] Group 4: Zinc Price and Inventory Data - From June 12 - 18, 2025, Shanghai zinc ingot price increased by 190, and LME inventory decreased by 625. Other data such as premium and import profit also had changes [1][2][3] Core View - This week, zinc prices fluctuated and declined. Supply side: domestic TC was unchanged, and import TC rebounded slightly. Demand side: domestic demand weakened marginally, and overseas demand in Europe was weak.

The overall fundamentals were weak, and it was expected to fluctuate weakly in the short term [10][11] Group 7: Lead Price and Inventory Data - From June 12 - 18, 2025, the change in spot premium was 20, and LME inventory increased by 2025. Other data such as premium and import profit also changed [12] Core View - This week, lead prices rebounded from a low level. Supply side: scrap volume was weak year - on - year, and some recycling enterprises increased prices to sell goods. Demand side: battery inventory was high, and Tianneng's production increased, driving spot trading. It was expected that lead prices would fluctuate between 16700 - 17100 next week, and supply was expected to be flat while demand was weak in June [12] Group 8: Tin Price and Inventory Data - From June 12 - 18, 2025, the change in spot import profit was - 498.60, and LME inventory increased by 20. Other data such as premium and export profit also changed [14] Core View - This week, tin prices fluctuated widely. Supply side: short - term复产 in Myanmar's Wa State needed negotiation, and domestic smelting enterprises in some areas cut production. Demand side: solder demand was limited, and terminal demand growth was expected to decline. Short - term, it was expected to maintain a situation of weak supply and demand, and June was a key stage to verify whether the shortage of ore would lead to a shortage of ingots. In the short - term, long - allocation could be held cautiously, and in the long - term, attention should be paid to short - selling opportunities after the maintenance period [14] Group 9: Industrial Silicon Price and Inventory Data - From June 12 - 18, 2025, 421 Yunnan basis decreased by 65, and the number of warehouse receipts decreased by 448 [17] Core View - This week, the start - up rate in Sichuan, Yunnan, and Xinjiang increased slightly. The short - term supply - demand reduction pattern was obvious, and the overall supply and demand of industrial silicon reached a tight balance. In the future, supply had great potential pressure. In the long - term, industrial silicon prices were expected to operate at the bottom of the cash - flow cost of leading enterprises, and the focus was on the cost reduction caused by green - electricity subsidies and the decline of thermal - power prices [17] Group 10: Lithium Carbonate Price and Inventory Data - From June 12 - 18, 2025, SMM electric - grade lithium carbonate price remained unchanged, and the number of registered warehouse receipts decreased by 1746 [19] Core View - This week, lithium carbonate prices rebounded from a low level. Supply side: some production lines resumed production, and overall inventory increased this week. Demand side: downstream demand was weak, and only maintained a safety inventory. In the medium - long term, if the start - up rate of leading ore - smelting integrated enterprises did not decline significantly, lithium carbonate prices would still fluctuate weakly. It was expected to continue to accumulate inventory next week, putting upward pressure on prices [19][20]
