Group 1: Investment Rating - No investment rating information is provided in the report. Group 2: Core View - The iron ore supply - demand pattern continues to be weak. Steel mill production is weakening, and the terminal consumption of ore is constantly declining. The daily average hot metal production and imported ore consumption of sample steel mills decreased again this week. With the unimproved profitability of steel mills and production - restriction disturbances, ore demand will continue to weaken, which may drag down ore prices. Meanwhile, the arrival of ore at domestic ports has increased significantly, overseas miners' shipments remain at a high level this year, and domestic ore production is stable, so the ore supply is high. In the short - term, the fermentation of positive factors supports the ore price to rise oscillatingly, but the demand is weakening while the supply remains high. The fundamentals of the ore market are weak, and the upward driving force is not strong. Once the market operation logic returns to the industrial end, the ore price may be weak. Attention should be paid to the performance of steel products [2].
