1. Report Industry Investment Rating - No relevant content provided 2. Core Viewpoints of the Report - The main contract price of rebar oscillated downward with a daily decline of 0.84%, showing a decrease in volume and an increase in open interest. As the holiday approaches, both supply and demand of rebar are weakening, and the fundamentals remain weak. The steel price in the off - season continues to be under pressure, with cost support being a relative positive factor. It is expected to continue the weak oscillating trend, and attention should be paid to inventory changes [5]. - The main contract price of hot - rolled coil oscillated weakly with a daily decline of 0.55%, and both volume and open interest increased. Currently, the supply of hot - rolled coil is at a high level while the demand is weakening. The fundamentals are weak, and the price will continue to oscillate at a low level under pressure. Attention should be paid to the demand performance and beware of the intensified contradiction of weakening demand [5]. - The main contract price of iron ore oscillated at a low level with a daily decline of 0.46%, and both volume and open interest decreased. At present, although the demand for iron ore has slightly recovered, the improvement is limited, and the supply pressure has limited relief. The fundamentals of iron ore are weak. Under the dominance of the real - world logic, the ore price is expected to remain under pressure and run weakly. Attention should be paid to the performance of finished steel [5]. 3. Summary by Relevant Catalogs 3.1 Industry Dynamics - According to the C50 Wind Direction Index survey, the liquidity in February is likely to remain stable and loose.

The weekly output of rebar decreased by 81,500 tons, and the inventory level is significantly higher than the same period last lunar year. Demand is in a weak seasonal pattern, and the weak demand pattern is difficult to change, dragging down the steel price. The cost support is a relative positive factor. It is expected to continue the weak oscillating trend, and attention should be paid to inventory changes [37]. - For hot - rolled coil, the supply - demand pattern has little change, and inventory has increased again. The weekly output of hot - rolled coil decreased slightly by 50 tons, remaining at a relatively high level, and the inventory level is high. The demand for hot - rolled coil is weakening, and although the downstream cold - rolled production is at a high level, there are concerns about demand. The price will continue to oscillate at a low level under pressure, and attention should be paid to demand performance [37]. - For iron ore, the supply - demand pattern remains weak, and inventory is continuously rising. Although the terminal consumption of ore has slightly increased, the improvement in demand is limited due to the poor profitability of steel mills and the accumulation of steel market contradictions. The supply of overseas ore has shrunk in the short term, and the supply pressure has limited relief. The ore price is expected to remain under pressure and run weakly, and attention should be paid to the performance of finished steel [38].

Group 1: Report Industry Investment Rating - No relevant information provided Group 2: Core Viewpoints of the Report - The steel futures market maintained a weak and volatile trend with low overall volatility, and the spot steel trading volume was generally weak. The overall production of the five major steel products decreased last week, but the hot metal production increased. Steel mills are gradually entering the holiday shutdown and maintenance mode. The total steel inventory is accumulating at an accelerated pace, with the inventory of rebar accumulating faster than that of hot-rolled coils, and the overall social inventory pressure is greater than that of the mill inventory. Recently, the weather has turned cold, and downstream construction sites have gradually stopped work, leading to a rapid decline in building material demand. Steel exports have decreased due to the decline in export licenses, and overseas manufacturing has gradually ended restocking, resulting in a decline in hot-rolled coil demand. The fundamentals of the steel market have weakened marginally. Recently, the continuous resumption of hot metal production, combined with the steel mills' need for restocking, has supported the raw material costs. It is expected that steel prices will continue to fluctuate following the macro sentiment before the Spring Festival. However, the current steel inventory is relatively high, and capital expenditure after the festival may fall short of expectations. The demand recovery situation remains to be seen, and the pessimistic expectations of steel mills may also limit the hot metal production this year, putting pressure on raw materials. Currently, the positions of the main steel contracts are relatively high, and attention should be paid to sudden capital actions before the festival. In the future, attention should be paid to the resumption rhythm of coal mines, hot metal production, downstream demand performance, overseas tariffs, and domestic macro and industrial policies [6].

The median forecast of market institutions for new RMB loans in January is 4.7 trillion yuan, a year-on-year decrease of 0.43 trillion yuan; the median forecast for new social financing is 7.11 trillion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 0.05 trillion yuan. In terms of money supply, the month-on-month growth rate of M2 in January may decline marginally, while M1 may increase due to the low base effect of the Spring Festival [8][9]. - On February 6, 2026, the Foreign Trade Secretariat of the Ministry of Development, Industry, Trade and Services of Brazil issued Announcement No. 6 of 2026, making a positive preliminary anti-dumping ruling on wire rods originating from China and Russia.

Report Summary 1. Report Industry Investment Rating No investment rating information is provided in the report. 2. Core Viewpoints - This week, the steel market entered a typical pre - Spring Festival operation mode with small price fluctuations and a marginal weakening in fundamentals. The market has prematurely entered a holiday state, with trading statistics suspended and inventory continuously accumulating. Raw material prices are under pressure, especially the iron ore price which has corrected from its high level [1]. - After the Spring Festival in 2026, the steel industry will face dual pressures of high inventory and weak demand. The demand for steel in the manufacturing industry supports the supply - demand balance of hot - rolled and cold - rolled products, but the demand for construction steel is weak due to the sluggish real estate market and slow resumption of work. On the supply side, the resumption of production is slow and the increase is limited due to low profits and order pressure. With significant inventory pressure and difficulty in destocking, although macro - policies provide support, the willingness for winter storage is low and speculative demand is lacking, so there is insufficient impetus for steel prices to rise. It is expected that the post - holiday market price will decline moderately, and attention should be paid to the demand recovery in mid - to late March [1]. 3. Summary by Relevant Catalogs Market Review and Outlook - Market situation: The market entered a pre - Spring Festival mode this week, with small price fluctuations, marginal weakening in fundamentals, suspended trading statistics, and continuous inventory accumulation. Raw material prices, especially iron ore, are under pressure [1]. - Outlook: After the Spring Festival in 2026, the steel industry faces high inventory and weak demand. Manufacturing steel demand supports hot - rolled and cold - rolled products, but construction steel demand recovers slowly. Supply - side production resumption is slow, inventory pressure is high, and steel prices are expected to decline moderately [1].
