南华期货钢材周报:钢厂补库加速即将进入尾声,成材维持震荡-20260201
Nan Hua Qi Huo· 2026-02-01 12:32
Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant information provided. Core Viewpoints - The main contradiction of finished steel products is that the blast furnace operating rate remains high due to good steel mill profits, but terminal demand gradually shrinks before the Spring Festival, leading to a lack of trading volume and inventory accumulation. Constrained by cost support and policies, the prices are in a range - bound state [1]. - The profit of electric arc furnaces continues to weaken, and there are signs of marginal weakening in blast furnace profits. In the short - term, steel mills may continue to increase production, and the possibility of significant production cuts is low [1]. - The demand for rebar and hot - rolled coils will weaken seasonally, and the inventory of rebar will continue to accumulate, while hot - rolled coil inventory may shift from de - stocking to stocking [1]. - The steel mill's iron ore inventory replenishment is accelerating and may end next week. Iron ore port inventory is at a record high, but high blast furnace operating rates and potential increases in molten iron production will support iron ore prices. Coking coal prices are supported by seasonal weakening of mine operating rates but are pressured by high port inventory [2]. - Steel prices will maintain a range - bound trend. The price range of the rebar main contract 2605 may be between 3050 - 3200 yuan/ton, and the hot - rolled coil main contract 2605 may be between 3200 - 3350 yuan/ton [2]. Summary by Directory Chapter 1: Core Contradictions and Strategy Recommendations 1.1 Core Contradictions - Supply side: Electric arc furnace profits weaken due to the narrowing of the iron - scrap price difference, while blast furnace profits remain stable.

Rebar inventory will continue to accumulate, and hot - rolled coil inventory may shift from de - stocking to stocking [1]. - Raw material side: Iron ore inventory replenishment by steel mills is accelerating and may end soon. Iron ore port inventory is at a record high. Coking coal prices are supported by seasonal weakening of mine operating rates but are pressured by high port inventory [2]. 1.2 Trading - type Strategy Recommendations - Near - term trading logic: Steel mill profits are good, providing opportunities for hedging. Iron ore port inventory is rising, and the replenishment logic is weakening. Terminal demand is shrinking, and high blast furnace operating rates support iron ore prices. The nomination of the new Fed Chairman may impact market liquidity [6]. - Long - term trading expectations include anti - involution expectations for steel production cuts, demand support from major projects in the first year of the 14th Five - Year Plan, and export controls [6]. 1.3 Industrial Customer Operation Recommendations - Trend judgment: Range - bound. The price range of the rebar main contract 2605 is 3050 - 3200 yuan/ton, and the hot - rolled coil main contract 2605 is 3200 - 3350 yuan/ton [7]. - Month - spread strategy: Wait and see. Hedging and arbitrage strategy: Wait and see [7]. - Inventory management: For enterprises with high finished - product inventory, short rebar or hot - rolled coil futures to lock in profits, and sell call options to reduce costs [7]. - Procurement management: For enterprises with low inventory, buy rebar or hot - rolled coil futures to lock in procurement costs, and sell put options to collect premiums [7]. 1.4 Data Overview - Rebar and hot - rolled coil spot prices: Most prices decreased slightly compared to the previous week [8]. - Hot - rolled coil overseas data: Most export and import prices increased slightly compared to the previous week [9].

Chapter 3:盘面解读 3.1 Price, Volume, and Fund Analysis - Basis: The basis of rebar and hot - rolled coil contracts shows seasonal changes [17]. - Coil - rebar spread: The coil - rebar spread shows seasonal changes in different regions and contracts [19]. - Term structure: The term structure of rebar, hot - rolled coil, iron ore, and coking coal futures shows different price differences at different time points [24][25]. - Month - spread structure: The month - spread of rebar and hot - rolled coil futures shows seasonal changes [27]. Chapter 4: Valuation and Profit Analysis 4.1 Industry Chain Upstream and Downstream Profit Tracking - The profits of different steel products, including long - process rebar, hot - rolled coil, cold - rolled coil, and medium - thick plate, show different trends in the short - term and with raw material lag [36]. - The profit ratios of different steel products and the ratio of steel to iron ore and coke show seasonal changes [47]. 4.2 Export Profit Tracking - The estimated export profit of hot - rolled coils shows seasonal changes and has a leading relationship with export volume [52]. - The price differences between overseas and domestic hot - rolled coils, and the relationship between export profit and export orders are analyzed [57][59].

史诗级暴跌引发流动性踩踏,金银后市怎么走?
Di Yi Cai Jing· 2026-02-01 11:38
Core Viewpoint - The article discusses a significant market crash in gold and silver prices driven by a sudden shift in policy expectations following the nomination of Kevin Warsh as the new Federal Reserve Chairman, leading to a liquidity crunch and forced liquidations across various asset classes [1][2][3]. Group 1: Market Reaction - On the last trading day of January, gold prices experienced a historic drop, with spot gold falling over 12% and silver plunging more than 35%, marking the largest single-day declines in nearly 40 years [1][2]. - Gold prices fell from a peak of 5598.75 USD/oz to a low of 4682 USD/oz, closing at 4880.03 USD/oz, while COMEX gold futures dropped 8.35% [2]. - Silver saw an even steeper decline, with prices hitting a high of 121.65 USD/oz before plummeting to 74.28 USD/oz, closing down 26.42% [2]. Group 2: Policy Implications - Warsh's nomination is perceived as a shift towards a more hawkish stance for the Federal Reserve, which could undermine the previously supportive narrative for gold prices, leading to a significant sell-off [3][4]. - Analysts suggest that Warsh's approach may disrupt the narrative of central bank independence that had previously supported rising gold prices, resulting in a sharp increase in the dollar index [3]. Group 3: Margin Calls and Liquidation - The article highlights a vicious cycle of forced liquidations triggered by increased margin requirements from exchanges, leading to a downward spiral of selling pressure [4][5]. - The Chicago Mercantile Exchange and domestic exchanges raised margin requirements, exacerbating the liquidity crunch and forcing leveraged positions to liquidate [4][5]. Group 4: Technical Indicators - Prior to the crash, the gold and silver markets showed extreme overbought signals, with gold's RSI reaching 90 and silver's RSI exceeding 93, indicating a high likelihood of a correction [6]. - The implied volatility for gold ETFs surged to 39.67, reflecting a market with low tolerance for error and a need for significant price adjustments to absorb profit-taking and emotional premiums [6]. Group 5: Consumer Behavior - The article notes that retail investors faced challenges in responding to the price drop, with many unable to intercept orders for gold jewelry purchased at much higher prices [7]. - Retail policies regarding returns on gold products vary, with many retailers not accepting returns once the items are out of their possession, complicating consumer reactions to the price crash [7]. Group 6: Future Outlook - Despite the sharp decline, gold and silver recorded substantial gains for January, with COMEX gold and silver futures up 13% and 20% respectively [8]. - Analysts express divided views on the future of gold and silver, with short-term volatility expected due to ongoing forced liquidations, while long-term trends may favor a shift away from the dollar and increased central bank gold purchases [8][9].

"金价暴跌, 手里的黄金基金该怎么办?" "大跌正好, 趁低买些首饰, 过年佩戴正合适。" 北京时间1月31日凌晨,现货白银价格一度暴跌36%,创出历史最大日内跌幅。现货黄金价格一度下跌超过12%,盘中跌穿每盎司4700美元,遭遇40年来 单日最大跌幅。受国际金价急速下挫传导影响,国内首饰金价同步迎来大幅回调。 记者走访本地市场了解到,终端足金金饰销售持续火热,黄金回收业务亦同步升温,市场交投氛围十分活跃。有消费者一次性购入足金饰品263克,单笔 消费金额超过36万元。 市民购金热情未减。 黄金白银贵金属价格 为何"高台跳水"? 受访分析人士均指出,金银价格的急跌,是受沃什获提名的消息触发,随后跌速加快。此前大量涌入贵金属市场的资金开始集中获利了结,叠加美元指数 快速拉升,使得以美元计价的黄金和白银对海外投资者而言成本陡增。数据显示,美元指数当日一度上涨约0.8%,对贵金属(价格)形成明显压制。 业内人士表示,本轮金价大幅波动之下,市民投资与消费心态呈现鲜明分化:有人逢低果断抄底、配置金银实物,有人担忧后续继续下跌而急于变现避 险,还有不少基金及实物持有者面对剧烈行情手足无措,多元心态交织,共同推高了整体市场 ...
铂钯周报-20260201
Guo Tai Jun An Qi Huo· 2026-02-01 09:20
Report Industry Investment Rating No information provided. Core Viewpoints of the Report - Platinum experienced a stage of unexpectedly large pullbacks, while palladium declined in tandem and was in a weak consolidation phase. Both platinum and palladium are considered weak. The price ranges are 500 - 600 yuan/gram for the main platinum contract in Guangzhou and 400 - 480 yuan/gram for the main palladium contract in Guangzhou [3][4]. - Platinum reached below the annual target value of $3000 per ounce and then lost its upward momentum. The forward discount in the London platinum market rapidly converged, and the characteristic of a more convex 3M curve disappeared. The change in the forward structure was likely due to the profit - taking of overseas forward long positions in the arbitrage portfolio after the narrowing of the internal - external price difference. There is a risk of further decline in the daily and weekly dimensions, but in the monthly and quarterly levels, platinum is expected to regain lost ground and revise its valuation upwards [4]. - Palladium showed more resilience than platinum in this pullback. Its London liquidity is tightening, ETFs are flowing in at an accelerated pace, and there is a small inventory build - up in the US. It is still too early to say that palladium has returned to fundamental pricing, and it is expected to generally follow the fluctuations of other precious metals [4]. - Due to the significant fluctuations in the precious metals sector, all unilateral positions are recommended to enter on the right - hand side, and protection can be set through short - option positions [4]. Summary by Relevant Catalog Trading Aspects (Price, Spread, Funds, and Positions) Trading Volume and Open Interest - As of the end of this week, the total open interest of platinum in Guangzhou was 33,860 lots, and the trading volume this week was 159,187 lots. The total open interest of palladium in Guangzhou was 12,615 lots, and the trading volume this week was 83,402 lots. Both trading volume and open interest increased. Currently, the trading volume and open interest of the main contracts are significantly larger than those of non - main contracts. The price of platinum contract 08 is the lowest, and the structures of both platinum and palladium have switched to the B structure. Since platinum and palladium are in the initial listing stage, the inventory data of the Guangzhou Futures Exchange has not been disclosed [8]. Platinum - Palladium Ratio - In the short term, platinum has a large pullback and is expected to oscillate at a low level. One can consider the long - platinum and short - palladium strategy when the ratio is below 1.2. In the first half of this week, palladium made up for its gains, and platinum had a significant pullback on Thursday and Friday, causing the platinum - palladium ratio to rapidly converge. As of the close on Friday, the overseas platinum - palladium ratio was 1.27, and the ratio in the Guangzhou Futures Exchange was 1.36 [10][12]. Overseas Futures - Spot Spread - **Platinum**: The spread between London platinum spot and New York platinum main contract showed a large - scale inversion on Thursday but basically returned to the flat - water level on Friday. The spread between New York platinum continuous and New York platinum main contract fluctuated sharply, changing from - $155 per ounce to $283 per ounce within the week [15]. - **Palladium**: The spread between London palladium spot and New York palladium main contract fluctuated within a narrow range, reaching $10 per ounce on Friday. The spread between New York palladium continuous and New York palladium main contract had an enlarged fluctuation, with an average value of $40.2 per ounce this week [19]. Arbitrage Costs | Arbitrage Type | Cost | Spread | Profit Window | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Platinum Spot - Futures Positive Arbitrage (Buy Spot, Sell 2606) | 8.2 yuan/gram | - 7.8 yuan/gram | Not opened [21] | | Palladium Spot - Futures Positive Arbitrage (Buy Spot, Sell 2606) | 6.3 yuan/gram | - 20 yuan/gram | Not opened [23] | | Platinum Near - Far Month Calendar Spread Positive Arbitrage (Buy 2606, Sell 2610) | 8.4 yuan/gram | - 5.1 yuan/gram | Not opened [25] | | Palladium Near - Far Month Calendar Spread Positive Arbitrage (Buy 2606, Sell 2610) | 6.2 yuan/gram | - 5.1 yuan/gram | Not opened [27] | | Platinum Internal - External Arbitrage (Buy NYMEX Main, Sell 2606) | 74.1 yuan/gram | 88.5 yuan/gram | 14.4 yuan/gram profit window [29] | | Palladium Internal - External Arbitrage (Buy NYMEX Main, Sell 2606) | 57.5 yuan/gram | 51 yuan/gram | Not opened [31] | | Platinum Import Parity Calculation (Buy London Platinum Forward, Sell 2606) | 71.6 yuan/gram | 100.5 yuan/gram | 28.9 yuan/gram profit window [33] | | Palladium Import Parity Calculation (Buy London Palladium Forward, Sell 2606) | 54.7 yuan/gram | 59.5 yuan/gram | Almost no profit window [35] | Recycling Spread - This week, the platinum recycling discount widened and then rebounded to the level of - 86 yuan/gram, while the palladium recycling discount rapidly widened to the magnitude of - 100 yuan/gram [37]. ETF Holdings - This week, the platinum ETF holdings increased by 2.93 tons (about 94,200 ounces), and the palladium ETF holdings increased by 0.92 tons (about 29,600 ounces). Both platinum and palladium ETFs are flowing in at an accelerated pace, but the prices dropped significantly on Friday, so the subsequent flow of ETFs needs to be closely monitored [39]. Fundamentals (Inventory and Import - Export Data) Forward Discount Rates - In the past three months, the overseas forward markets for both platinum and palladium have been in a discount structure. Recently, the depth of the forward discounts has diverged. The platinum forward discount continued to converge significantly, and on Friday, it broke the characteristic of a more convex 3M curve from Monday to Thursday, with the full - term discount now within 6%. The palladium forward discount quickly increased, reaching the level of 4% on Friday [44]. Inventory and Registered Warrant Ratio - **Platinum**: This week, the NYMEX platinum inventory decreased to 655,200 ounces, approximately 20.37 tons, and the proportion of registered warrants increased accordingly, reaching 51.6% on Friday [45]. - **Palladium**: This week, the NYMEX palladium inventory increased to 224,000 ounces, approximately 6.97 tons, and the proportion of registered warrants continued to decline to 63.7% [48]. China's Import - Export Data - **Platinum**: Since September 2025, platinum exports have surged, and there has been a divergence between imports and net inflows. Since January 2020, the cumulative net inflow has been 553.88 tons. In December, both imports and exports increased, with imports of 5.57 tons, exports of 2.86 tons, and a net inflow of only 2.71 tons. The data for January 2026 has not been released [56]. - **Palladium**: Since 2020, there has been almost no palladium export, and it has been in a state of pure import, with a cumulative net inflow of 170.74 tons.
